It's the little things that can sway a purchase, I'm looking at an expansion for Dust Tactics. I don't play the game so the rules will go in the bin. It has some 2D card tile terrain that could be useful in solo games even if it isn't eye candy. There are 3 figures which I can probably use but the real clincher is the livestock, 2 cattle and a goat.

Let me guess - they're lifesize?

Bought & just arrived by the oh-so-slow post: some Tumbling Dice Covenanters.
A gun & crew & a bunch of Highland crazies: both to bring existing BGs up to strength.

That’ll bring the Covenant army up to 1041 points & 18 BGs (though you can fudge, to a degree, both sets of figures)….& which, sadly, is enough for any sane person (cue: smart alec remarks). As much as I like painting the TD figures, I think I know to stop here.

As I’ve run out of SYW figures, I'll prep these tonight & start painting tomorrow night.

No, but the price probably is.

Well I had a bit of time off to buy some lovely TBM buildings and village-tiles, but now it's back to normal: Same as every month, Pinky: Buy shitloads of AB Napoleonics and try to take over the world.

Everyone should have two cows and a goat, although my balcony would be a bit cramped if I did. I wonder if Bunnings sell cattlefeed over the net?

Box came from Empress today. Cheered up a miserable day, which is why I got them. Stunning figures! Probably the best poses, uniform & equipment detail and character of any wargames figure ever. Pack 13 is the character pack for Full Metal Jacket with Joker, Cowboy and Animal Mother. "You walk the walk, can ya talk the talk?" Since Vappa is cancelled and I seem to be rich atm I'm going to order the remaining packs and an M113 or two.

Really surprised Shazzabazza is resisting these. They really are brilliant.
