New Year Wargame Plans

[Purple]

What projects, game systems and miniatures are on the radar for next year then Loose Ass Gamers?

[Paul]

Getting my ACW Brigade and Rhodeleland troops finished for Ayton. Get my 6mm C18th Imaginations 'finished' (well the first couple of dozen Regts). Have some games of Frostgrave Ghost Archipelago and Gangs of Rome and dig my 15mm Sci Fi stuff out of the garage to give the rules I've been writing a run out or two All that against the constant background of the Early Colonial Kingdom of 'Iffi' imaginations project.
Me and a couple of others have commissioned a range from Steve Barber (To be called 'Beyond the Dragon Pagoda' I think) So that I have a wider variety of natives for that project.

Projects finally biting the dust and being moved on in 2018 will probably be my 10mm Napoleonics and 6mm Sudan, as one lifes too short to get everything done.

I have just joined the landed gentry, tomorrow I kick a single mother out of her home the week before Christmas, planning on stealing some candy from a few kids - it'll only make the little bastards fat.

When said single mother moves out in March I am going to unpack 8 cubic metres of books, and then finish my Chilean war of Independence figs, whilst basing all my dad's 25mms on magnets and boxing them in stackable plastic drawers.

If time permits I am going to get into 6mm CoC before years end.

On the gaming front, it will be 25mm WRG Wellingtonics some 6mm division to Corps level WWII and mayhap Senor O'Higgins will get his troops out once I have created a recycling crisis with my cardboard.

28mm AWI expansion, Continental Infantry and British Line and Light Infantry; 28mm cavalry for the FRW project, Scots Greys, Hussars de Beon and French Dragoons; 28mm ACW, a new Union Brigade; and a new project entirely with Phil in 28mm...

I’d like to spend one month at a time concentrating on one of my existing projects (chosen via a complex Satanistic ritual involving the sacrifice of one random credit card on the 1st of each month) and aim to get it at least playable at some level. Or sell it.

But I’ll only start this from the start of the fiscal year for obvious reasons.

and no new periods!

Ah, the wargamer's menopause!

I hope to settle on a scale for WW2, there is 28, 15, 10 and 6mm on the table but I'm thinking 15mm IABSM/CoC at the moment.

I hope to get something painted for Sharp Practice 2, probably Anglo-Portuguese with the 95th leading naturellement.

I hope to get a game or two of Gaslands and convert up a few Hot Wheels cars.

I hope to get hold of the new edition of Saga and paint up some Arthurian warbands.

I hope to get my WH40k stuff up to tournament standard, At least the Space Marines and Eldar.

I have a feeling that the only way the above will come true is if I find someone called Ian Hope and pay him handsomely...

In the pipeline...
1/600 US 8th airforce v the Luftwaffe. Most of the Germans have been done, so work can start on the Yanks
1/300 US army for the Tunisian campaign. Baccus figures should be delivered by Santa. Vehicles to be purchased at Salute.
10mm WWI Gold Coast Regiment figures to be painted.
10mm Camel Corps tob finished. Maybe. Possibly.

I have until mid-March to finish the LoA/WSS pile of infantry and guns for ShedCon.

I have until mid-march to make some scenery for ShedCon.

I'm itching to paint just a few 15mm science fiction figures and vehicles. They're there ready to start but I must stay strong (see above).

After March I'll have a month to revamp the Gateway command ready for Ayton.

After Ayton I have no plans but I hope to start something that will be finished my the end of the year.

Right!

So will it help if I wrestle my 15mm Sci Fi off of the garage rats, get some painted up(15mm, not rats, they won't hold still) and show it on here (internet allowing)?
