I finished a unit of armoured Mercenaries for By Fire and Sword. These models also suit well for 30YW with the typical wear of Bandolier Reiters.

It took me ages to build these since still water and me are sworn enemies. After I finalised these I read about swamps built onto of painted bases with PVC sticky foil. I guess that’s my next take. However my colors came out nicely.

During my holidays I try to finish (🤣) some started projects. Here only 24 horses need some more paint. This will be a centre piece of my Transylvanian Task Force. I went a bit too fancy for country side nobles, but these forces haven’t seen conflict for 80 years when they went to Poland.

We played the board game police 07, a Hungarian version of Scotland Yard from 1986 with a map showing Budapest. It’s still fun, I played it a lot as a kid.

A sweet spot in wargaming is when you can chose almost every option in your army list. Yesterday I fielded an army consisting only of cavalry or dragoons. It was fun! #pikeandshot #byfireandsword #wargaming

… but learned a hard lesson about Osman warfare with strong artillery, masses of infantry in the Center and light cavalry on the wings. Inshallah!

First babysteps with #Midgard we played the scenario Battle at the Fords of Isen by @johnsavage.bsky.social Cool looks, the fords could be held. We should have picked an easier scenario for the first one.

I followed @mogsymakes.bsky.social tutorial on multibases for magnetized single miniatures and he released me from a 20 years curse of decision making. Looks so good. Thank you!!

#byfireandsword leaves a lot room for manoeuvres, with 6 elements on the table reflecting the character of Eastern Europe conflicts of 17th century. Terrain is influencing the outcome in a modest but decisive way. I managed to defend the hill with my armoured cav vs mighty Hussars.

Todays club game: #byfireandsword task force Sweden vs. plush Lithuanian commonwealth with my friend Peter. It was a great and close game with winged hussars – great fun. First time with my swedes brought me a victory but it was close.
