On the weekend we did another quick playtest of 'Through the Mud and Blood of Flanders' the goal was to test some new mechanics such as the air support mechanics you'll be able to harness in TTMABOF V2, needless to say, fun was had by all!

It's not Wedneaday but I can still post WIP pictures right?

Some more ships for Dread Not!. Not 100% happy on the khaki for the Ottoman ships, I might lighten up the decks and see if that helps.

Getting ready for some what if Mediterranean naval action!

Couple days ago we played another fantastic game of Dread Not! this time refighting Dogger Bank. We were missing a lot of the light ships but we made the scenario work!

This might be mainly a wargaming page but you can expect the odd hockey post. Not bad seats for my 2nd game of the year. Go Marlies go!

Working on some Dunlandings for MESBG. Wasn't a big fan of the more anime themed head sculpts, so Victrix Vikings to the rescue!

Need to do more sculpting but they're off to a good start. Merry Christmas everyone!!

Like a bunch of people my age, Warhammer 40k was my introduction to the hobby. Started collecting at the tail end of 3rd but didn't really start playing until 4th.

#OTD in 1939, the Battle of Tolvajärvi was fought during the Winter War. It resulted in the first major Finnish victory of the war, with Soviet losses estimated to be over 5000 deaths and many destroyed.

"A French woman lived in the bunker from 1919 until her death in the 60s/70s"

Can you imagine? I would have loved to know what it looked like when she lived inside.
Changing Battlefields - a British bunker in Festubert, photographed by me in the late 1980s. A French woman lived in the bunker from 1919 until her death in the 60s/70s. Today it is totally covered in ivy and most people just pass it by.

How about a Mk IV being assaulted by some Turks in a what if scenario using Warhammer Historical: Great War

If you see this, post a vehicle too!

A throwback to our Jutland scenario we ran last year

The British losses were...
- HMS Lion
- 1x A Class Destroyer
- HMS New Zealand was disengaging at only 5 knots and under torpedo threat.

German losses were...
- 3x Torpedo Boats
- SMS Von Der Tann was dead in the water

Another update on the Vimy Project, the 1st Division is complete. Working on the 2nd and 3rd Canadian Divisions now. Most of the models are painted but I've got to get around to basing them.
