Blue eyed Dal Riadan Celt with more wargames minis than space and a vinyl collection that was the soundtrack for the sack of Rome (all Goth innit!). Sometimes goes walking too.
I finished these patrol markers today for Chain of Command 2. Cheap to do. Photo manipulation in MS Word. 'Locked' text added . Print. Let ink dry overnight. Glue doublesided onto 50mm mdf rounds from Warbases. AK paint marker to tidy the edge. Idea to table in <24 hours. #spreadthelard #wargaming
I picked up some of the new Battle Honours 3d UK prints in 15mm. Really fast service. They arrive with supports attached. Compared to other 3d figures they scale well with Battlefront (left) and Peter Pig (right). Lightweight so will need basing. #15mm #wargaming #battlehonours
Finished today, a rather motley mix representing an RAF Regiment flight, Burma 1944/45. For Chain of Command 2. Mixing 15mm figures from Peter Pig, Battlefront and Eureka. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Research. And the emergence of a possible game of Chain of Commamd 2. #wargaming #spreadthelard
A couple more extras for Chain of Command 2, Burma 1945 project. Commonwealth 2pdrs, jeeps, 2in mortar and replen point. Also a 3d printed Japanese AA truck converted to use a more robust Battlefront gunner with some magnets. All 15mm. #spreadthelard #15mm #wargaming
Just finished. Five carriers for Burma. Four (resin) printed along with the PSC observer carrier. 15mm for Chain of Command 2. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Big Chain of Command 2 at The Outpost, Sheffied, tonight. Somewhere on the Eastern Front...that's a long table... #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Latest additions for some planned games of Chain of Command 2 set in Burma 1944 and 1945. Includes elements of 3rd Carabiniers, 'Indian' 7th Cavalry, Probyn's Horse and some scouts. Mostly Battlefront kits but some 3d prints and a smattering of Peter Pig minis. #15mm #spreadthelard #wargaming.
A new platoon for Chain of Command 2. Burma 1945 and an Indian Motor Rifle Platoon sans PIAT team. Jump off points, a replen point, an extra section and a flamethrower team as supports. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Latest off the painting table, a Kings African Rifles platoon plus support for Chain of Command 2. And some Japanese AT capability. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Sharp Practice with @stormofsteel.bsky.social and the Steel City Irregulars at the Outpost. The French are trying to stop critical powder supplies getting to Hougoumont Farm. #18mm #spreadthelard #wargaming
Chain of Command 2 at the club with Dean and @stormofsteel.bsky.social . King's African Rifles take on the Japanese in the Demolition Derby scenario. 15mm. Terrain and figures from Alex. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
First completed work since my last holiday. Some late WW2 Kangaroos and medley of early WW2 French vehicles. All 3D resin prints. Intended for Chain of Command 2. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Playtesting What A Cartel at the club with the king of bayonet charges himself, Dean! An excellent game with the local Militia holding the Tequila bar despite the attention of the drug lords. #wargaming #toofatlardies
Storm of Iron! Play testing the Full Nelson with @stormofsteel.bsky.social at The Outpost. #wargaming #thefullnelson #spreadthelard
The Road of Bremen campaign ended this evening. Another nail biting and tense game of Chain of Campaign 2. A British win on a sudden death victory despite their Force Morale taking kicking. That victory brings the campaign to an overall draw. Try out a CoC2 PSC. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Last leg on the Road to Bremen? Or will the Germans hold? 15mm Chain of Command 2 and the Road to Bremen PSC with @stormofsteel.bsky.social . #15mm #wargaming #zpreadthelard.
Bremen, industrial quarter, drying in the sun. Ready for tomorrow's game of Chain of Command 2! #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Campaign Turn seven and the British break through table five. The depleted Volksturm saw their Force Morale plummet under combined mortar and tank fire. However, they gave a good account costing more British resources. Anoher corker game of Chain of Command 2. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Back once more of the road to Bremen. Second British attempt on this table. Chain of Command 2 Pint Sized Campaign. With @stormofsteel.bsky.social
"Fruit trees sir! Thousands of 'em!" Well 40 anyway. Orchards for 15mm wargaming. Finished today. #15mm #wargaming
Early WW2 French armour clearing the painting pile. Not wholly happy with these as I went with a general wash rather than a pin wash. Ah well, we live and learn. Battlefront kits destined for Chain of Command 2. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
Road to Bremen campaign for Chain of Command 2. Turn six and the British try to clear table five with aggressive recon and then a furious bayonet charge. However. the Volksturm, helped by a Hetzer, hold the line. A German win. Same time, same place, next week. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
The Road to Bremen opens up. Game 6 on table five. Can the Volksturm hold this ground? They had better; I've not finished the terrain for the later tables! Chain of Command 2 with @stormofsteel.bsky.social . #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
A tense and brutal game this evening. Campaign turn four on The Road to Bremen and the British clear table three on their second attempt. Despite 30% casualties. combined British artillery and tank fire ground the German force morale down to zero. A British win. #15mm #spreadthelard #wargaming
Back on the Road to Bremen. The British take a second crack at Table Three, this time with lots of artillery. A campaign for Chain of Command. #15mm #wargaming #spreadthelard
