Ooh, Hellgate... I love that story and setting, what a great choice 😍 I once wrote a bit of a story with a very similar vibe when my wife gave me a "creative writing course" as a birthday present.....

@Geoff Maybury I too like Spectre as Matt is a mate of mine, but we use mostly a "house set" of rules that picks from the good bits we like and ditches the other "too crunchy" bits... but amo...
@JTam lovely... and a cheeky MP40 muzzle there too 😍
I've got my pre-order in for the new 02 Hundred game and I'm really looking forward to the new minis that come with it... that said, as I already have a sizeable collection of North African terrain...
@Geoff Maybury BPRE is a bit of a "lifestyle" thing, lots of "operators with beards" doing cool things with cool weapons and NVGs... the graphic novels are superb in terms of artwork, and the minia...
@JTam again, excellent, I'm glad both sides are represented well :) Ah, '58 pattern... the picture you show is very much an "as issued" setup minus the waterbottle pouch (es), and generally many of...
Just for "full disclosure" I do a little light re-enacting for this period, hence the DPM and Webbing collection 😁
You know you're among friends when Maverick gets a thread like this 😍
@JTam excellent! I don't always buy WI but that looks worth getting... although I have a big pile of old 68 patt DPM and '58 webbing here for ref 🤣 The Argentinians (contrary to opular opinion!) di...
I'm a little underwhelmed by the female gunfighters too, as indeed the male box set was very good and allowed a lot of mix and match... the pistols arms seem a bit... well, okay, but nothing more a...
Civlians are cool with me; a number of games out there I can think of use "gen pop" as problem generators... and the Falklands, ooh, I'd be all over that... SAS for a "Pebble Island Raid" and...
@Geoff Maybury yup, seen and it looks lovely with all the weapon options but I fear it will be too small for the rest of my collection :( @Grumpy Gnome I feel ya as I buy sprues from Slogger too......
@Grumpy Gnome thank you, that's the very fellow... I'd seen the first one which is a good price, but shipping to the UK is (as always at the moment!) very expensive... they seem to be coming up mor...
@Grumpy Gnome thank you... I could have sworn I'd seen them but that could be age/stress-related imaginings 😆 Perhaps I was thinking of the ones you've kindly put there...
@Geoff Maybury been checking out all your "Iron Core" posts and loving them :) I bought the first new box set and fell in love with the aesthetic, so I can see this an area that I'll be following f...
@Geoff Maybury and pleased to meet you good sir, albeit virtually... I was completely out of games and models for many, many years but due to a serious illness I was laid up for almost a year, in a...
Hi all... firstly I have been what we call in the UK "a right plum" 🤪 I just got round to starting my "Sahariana" project and found that I've misplaced the Italian Infantry assembly instructions :...
What a lovely story, and so well written! Being another gamer and collector who has more grey than anything else now, and having returned to our glorious hobby after illness this resonates deeply w...
I actually love this ruleset as it's not in any way "crunchy"... simple and straightforward and you really can play a game with your mates in an hour (or substantially less if the cards are unkind ...
@lauregami very much looking forward to this game and have it pre-ordered... fascinated to see what WGA do with this 😍
I'm having a bit of a fantasy "Feudal Japan" moment right now using Daisho and Ronin along with some mash-up hoembrew rules and the Skeletons make and ideal wave unit... I know skeletons aren't the...
Morning all! Another returnee to models and games after many years abscence... funny how age and serious illness (now fully recovered!) can bring you back to things that you love but had forgotten!...
