Skirmish Gaming

Once again catch up time here we have some pics of stuff for skirmish gaming

Italians as promised and with more to come. Note the British Officer installed as a advisor.

Time to the catch up with the Blog; I have been working on some Italian Folgore in desert attire. This is one section and one fireteam with a heavy machinegun .

I also have a game of Fantasy against one of my old mates this week so have been sorting out the army for this.

My Chaos Space Marines army has been nearly painted all the Marines are done and the daemons will not take long so that is one army finished when I get through with it.

Also today I painted a Skaven Ratling Gunner for generic fantasy. The jury is still out which rules set I will use for this game and what the gang / team will look like I will be painting up Queek Headtaker and a Warplock Engineer.

New Year - New Start

Right, bit of a late start to this year.
With all the changes in the upcoming wargaming rules sets, it is time to re-evaluate my armies and painting for this year.
First things first.
I have a force on British Para’s for rules of engagement these will be joining my Italians as CIL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Co-Belligerent_Army.
Black Powder thirty years war army needs painting so one stand a week to start out – same with Napoleonic Italian.
Chaos Army for WHFB nearly done and will continue with this.
A mate wants to start Warhammer 40k with the bits I have already got I have decided to make Craftworld Eldar my main army as this gives me a variety in colour schemes but I also want to theme them to moving to Slaanesh. Dark Eldar bits a go pictures to follow soon.
War of the Ring needs finishing and a few Cygnar models need finishing as well as a few stands of Flames of War Germans.
Also thanks to Big Jim for making Killzone as I have been making a Chaos Marine force which is completed.
Lastly one project I want to make for poops and giggles is a Feral Hunt Army with Canis Wolfborn, Landspeeders and Fenrisian Wolves, this will have a few Wolf Guard members on bikes to add their weight to combats and reign in Canis’ influence. After painting a test model they might be a divergent company.

Flames of War

Had two games of Flames of War today and lost one badly and the other one was a near thing. Oh well will have to read a book

Models for sale

These are the 10 ghouls not looking for much.

Warhammer 8th and non related things

I know it's been a while since I last posted, and will be getting back into it.

Had a game of Warhammer 8th Ed today and my dice once again killed me my dark elf sorceress blew a hole in her unit with a miscast and the 50 strong ungor allies all ran off the table then she did the same next turn.
Oh well will be getting the book soon.

On another note been putting 15mm napoleonics on bases for Blackpowder and really enjoying that also been preparing for a 15mm skirmish game (platoon level) and been ordering from Quick Reaction Force some Britsh marines while reading Commando 3 not wanting to game the modern period have been working on some background that involves something so that I can mix in the models I have kicking around pics hopefully to follow..
