How was the centrefold?

He's obviously found the "readers' wives" section.

Readers Wives was especially disappointing this month and I’m still searching for the edition with Big Pots from Potters Bar.

However what I was looking for in this edition is the excellent article on the 54mm diorama of Bunker Hill. Apparently this went to the Royal Marines museum. Just checked the museums website and it’s closed to the public for improvements - presumably being improved by removing all references to fighting and running classes on 18thC basket weaving. So no idea if the diorama ever survived the last 40 years.

I think the Royal Marines are getting in tune with the army. They want spoiled brats who play video games till 04:00, muslims praying in Wales and selfie addicts. Dioramas of men fighting are soooo earlier demographics.


The marines will show that as an LGBTABCWHATEVER your privacy is ensures and you can bonk or not bonk or be bonked by or not be bonked by whatever takes your fancy or doesn't irrespective of what dangly bits you've got..

I remember that article. Very inspiring at the time.

Have you asked the curator about the diorama?

[goat major]

i only got the magazine yesterday. But thats a good idea. I'd love to see it for real. I was also very inspired at the time and its stuck in my mind ever since as one of the best M&M features. I'm sure the old B&W photos dont do it enough justice. Disappointingly the article doesnt have an awful lot to say about how he planned and modelled it.

We’re clearly on the same wave length. I’m currently winning a bid on eBay for very similar items

Just been to Lidl for the cheapo cordless Dremel knock off on offer this week. Not at all bad for £16.99 and 2 quid each for the accessory packs.

[World2dave]

No, no, no Buff.
If it's not £80 how can you possiblyuse it to drill out 5 hands a year and still call yourself a wargamer?

[Jeremy]

Buff can say he’s drilled out the hands. He can’t say he’s Dremmeled out the hands. That shits TM
