I hoped to have finished my little CoC force in January which will leave 2018 pretty open.
I’ll be working on my SYW Russians and Austrians in the background without being full on burnout mode.
I’ll be adding some tiny Ww1/ww2 naval fleets. 15mm Ancients and WSS.

After Ayton I have no plans but I hope to start something that will be finished by the end of the year.
Right!
I think he means "driving home from Ayton". :eb:

The only plans are for carrying on with stuff I've got, some Brits for Ayton and an attempt at 10mm SYW.
I know when to go out
I know when to stay in
Get things done

I'll probably be trying to attack lots of projects and make a bit of progress with each.

Key targets:
6mm SYW
6mm 1859
15mm Sci-fi
15mm Dark Ages/Fantasy
28mm Ayton 18th century stuff
Lots of terrain and scenery for the above and other things.

In other words, just like this year really.

Seeing as I started two new -well, one new (French-Italian Wars/Imaginations/Condittierre), and the other an extension of WW II into Early War British/French and Germans) -I reckon any other projects are on hold. Of course if the wnd changes direction it could be anything....in 6 or 10mm of course.

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)?
It's a question of which I fear most. Not painting my science fiction stuff and thus receiving a few adverse comments would be bad, but not having my armies and terrain ready for ShedCon and I'd never hear the end of it.

Don't let that stop you posting your piccies through.

For me finishing a few bits for my regular collections:
28mm WWII
28mm SYW
28mm Medieval

Plus my Ayton moderns.

I'm very tempted to start some pike and shot but we'll see. That might be post Ayton.

There is also something in Santas Sack on its way to me with half of the order being sent on to Framlingham. I'm worried though, it could well push Mr Hall over the edge... We'll see?

Perhaps the Ayton moderns should be at the top of your list young Whiskey, only five months to go. And having read the end of your post I am now feeling very nervous. :?
Rules? You ask me what rules do I use. No, I don't do rules.

:oops: I did forget one new period. One of my favourite sets of rules is Fire and Fury and while I’ve gamed a lot of ACW I always thought that I’d like to do a European war with them. And those nice chaps at Wyre Forest have a adaption for the Wars of Italian Unification and that nice Mr Vexillia is my supplier for the 15mm hard stuff from Italy and there’s a nice package under my Christmas twig. So that will be definetly started in 2018.

And finished before the 200th anniversary!
I get lockdown, but I get up again.
