I think Critical Mass is sold by Ral Partha UK now, not tried any though. Do they scale well with Brigade? I have found Brigade GZG and Ion Age all to be near enough.

Definitely going skirmish. Picked up some bits from Ground Zero. Went 15mm as most of my scenery is 15mm and can be repurposed. May be time for another incarnation of Swans in Space!!!

CM are a bit more anatomically correct being tall and thinnish than the dumpier BM. They mix fine to my unfussy eye but it's probably like mixing Minden Miniatures with Perry Miniatures

I have a fairly large number of 15mm Traveller figures that I must do something about.

So far, I've failed to buy: an extra large pair of sprue snippers, a box of Blitzkrieg plastic German infantry at £18, another box (different seller) at £20, and now a pair of 1:300 Fairmile Gunboats for Coastal Patrol.

I now have just 24 hours to find something I actually want that I can actually buy because the seller actually has it in stock.....
And the saga just keeps getting better and better! Found another pair of Fairmile gunboats, ordered them, got the PayPal email to say the money had been sent.....and now come down this morning to find an email saying the deal hasn't gone through. It's almost like my wife is tracking my purchases and each time going "No, you've got enough stuff already. Cancel!"

Perhaps we should start a "What are people NOT buying?" thread.....

We'll need two threads.
"What have I refrained from buying" and "What have I failed to buy" just for you.
