The Loose Association of Wargamers

Back to the Covenanters.

They hold their own against my pal's Montrose-army but they are yet to stand up to the English ECW force.

I want to keep inside the FoG lists, if possible, so I'm adding a 4th gun to the medium artlllery BG & a wee bittie more Horse.
...and on the topic of army lists, why are *all* the P&S BGs (except one: Campbell of Lawers) all average or poor? I'm tempted to add a red coated BG of Hume of Heug who were veterans of the Irish campaign & call them "Superior".

I'm with him ^ - the current project is still a gleam in my eye, the next is already planned and purchased, the ones beyond that haven't hove been cast yet.

English rules writers bastard descendants of normans and saxons,

I did wonder about the new Victrix 12mm because I need wwii in another scale like I need an extra bumhole but they looked so lovely, tonight I saw the price so won't be going there.

Current workbench has shinys and the Seljuk Turk army LT sent me.

In no particular order next projects:

1. I need to find my modern 6mm tanks that I got for Kumbahyah.
2. Pointy stick Romans and Numidians
3. Various WWII bits to finish

The next project I was looking at investing in was 30mm FPW but I keep talking myself out of it.

Does everyone else do it differently from me then? I have at least 20 'current' projects I am painting, or not, but at least they are in lead in my shed.. the next project after that (or more likely, leapfrogging the existing lead) will be something I don't even know yet.

Current is 28mm Macedonians and epic space marines.

Next is 15mm SYW, more epic.

After that is.... well back to SPACE:1959 and not doing revolutionary wars French etc.

Probably my recently-purchased Cruel Seas/Coastal Patrol ship(ettes).

Wait until you see how much children's clothes cost (especially shoes) and how quickly they grow out of them, and you'll want to reconsider that rejected rectum!

Yes I looked at the tanks and thought I could go for that before wincing at the price. They are about 60p per tank more expensive than Pendraken 10mm and about £2.30 cheaper per tank than FoW 15mm which doesn't make it sound so bad. They could do with a few variant options on the sprues though unless they are going to be extras. I'll wait for the infantry, if they look good, and are not in some hellish bendy plastic, I might go all in.

Not a problem. Got bin bags full in the loft thanks to Tim H. It's more an issue now, her current record for outgrowing a sleepsuit is 3 days.

I've decided on her toy fort, the AIP Fort khandaha playset.
