Buff, I will take spare sprues off you. No interest in the rules but I fancy the figures for some klutzy paw-friendly conversion potential.Buff Orpington wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 8:48 am I'm looking at the Nickstarter for Stargrave. Freebies look nice so far but I don't need 20 figure box sets. May end up swapping or selling spare sprues.

St George was eastern European, and the dragon is Welsh. So perhaps the Londonistan Flats Society?Shahbahraz wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 7:40 am Hmm, sounds to me like the English Flats Society, not British. St George and the Dragon having tea doesn't sound at all British to me.

And the designer of the figure was German I believe so perhaps we need to shut the whole society down with immediate effect.
Fredd the figure looks rather lovely - enjoy painting it !

Re: What are people buying?
all fun and games. I have admired flats for years. But that's one rabbit-hole I am not going to go down. Stargrave OTOH I was severely tempted by, as I have Dr Who and Aliens figures... but I am trying to resist.
i suppose it should have occurred to me years ago, but is St George the symbolic Anglo-Saxon defeating the Dragon, symbolising the Welsh? And everyone will say 'of course, everyone knows that'. It will only be the second bleeding obvious thing I figure out today.

no, it was adopted in 1350 when Edward III created the modern orders of chivalry, because to a Norman/Frenchman ST Edmund was too English and Saxon.

Bloody foreigners. Coming over here with their fancy saints and primogeniture. The king should be selected by a council of the wise or a reality show phone in vote.

I'll see if I get any offers of a swap at the club but if I do need to sell I'll let you know.Dog who drinks paint wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 1:24 pmBuff, I will take spare sprues off you.
