Well I am sitting here aching from head to foot from lots of walking at Salute 50 on Friday and Saturday, my old bones are suffering! It felt really strange and very hard for me to be there this year and not to be at the reins like I have been for the past thirteen or fourteen years, knowing that [Read more...]
Well it has been a strange week, I have not had any chance to do much actual hobby stuff, all I have really managed to do is write more rules!! I have finally worked out a few issues with the Zombie rules, I think I have managed to get the activation sequence sorted, hopefully I will get a chance [Read more...]
Well that was interesting, it was a game that I don’t think my opponent and I will forget in a hurry… Bolt Action is always fun against the right opponent and mine this time is definitely the right opponent, like me he hates the idea of tournament play and big horrible nasty armies built with just [Read more...]
Yep you read that correctly, Bolt Action Vietnam, that’s the game I played at the club Monday night and it was a lot of fun. A friend of mine was talking about doing some Vietnam games but wanted to try and use Bolt Action as the base rules as they are a fast and simple set of rules, so I did a [Read more...]
I had a Bolt Action game at my club last night using my Germans, it was going to be four people playing so I split my 1,000 points into small units and a couple of little vehicles, my opponent did a similar list.

I couldn’t make it to the club this week so as I was at home the Mrs said that she would like to try Test of Honour!! She had seen it played and thought that it looked easy and the figures looked nice… well I wasn’t going to turn down the chance of a game, so I set up a simple game on a small area [Read more...]
After looking closer at the photo's in this post I realised that several were either showing the models too far away and small or were a little blurry, so I took some new ( hopefully better ) photo's and added them to this post. Despite feeling really ill over the last couple of weeks I have [Read more...]
Well I had another great game at the club this week, I joined three mates and played a game of 1st edition Disposable Heroes, the WW2 unit skirmish game ( that’s what it says on the front cover! ) I have been told that this is an old rule set ( and I am only playing version one ) but I really [Read more...]
I had the chance of another game of Test of Honour at the club the other night, it has been a long while since I had played so I had a little catching up with the rules to do which wasn’t too bad as it is a fairly simple game to play. We just went for a simple meeting engagement, maybe two waring [Read more...]
