ACW



I've been painting a bunch of ACW lately, since I'm getting ready for a game I'm going to run at a convention in May. 

I still have plenty of time, but I need to paint another brigade of Yankees (80 figs), more siege artillery, and a bunch of earthworks and redoubts since it will be a Vicksburg game! 

Here are some of the figs fresh off the painting table! These are mostly ACW Gamer 28mm figures, and I think they look awesome, and they just might be my favorite ACW figures at the moment.


The heavy siege artillery is from Perry Miniatures, and of course, they are great figures as too! The two ranges blend well together I think. Anyway, here are the pics:

Good gaming!

War of the Roses





Here are some pics from two 25mm War of the Roses games we recently played. I enjoy using Arty Conliffe's excellent "Medieval Tactica" rules.

They are fun, fast, simple and provide for a great game with a feel for the period.






Good Gaming,

25mm War of the Roses

Here is the freshest unit off my painting table! It's a 30 figure bill unit for my War of the Roses games. I use Medieval Tactica and it provides a fun and quick game with a great period feel.


So what's on the painting table now...I'm working on 10mm ACW for Fire and Fury! 

Good gaming!

28mm North Africa - Bolt Action


We've been getting into Bolt Action lately as a fun and simple way to game WW2. We wanted to limit the amount of heavy tanks and equipment so we picked the War in North Africa 1941-1943. 

So far we've been having a blast! I've been painting Germans and British, as well as my friend Chris. Tyler has been painting Italians, and John has been painting some French. 

Here are some pics from our last game:

My Bolt Action 8th Army figs!


This is the beginning of my British 8th Army Desert Rat force for Bolt Action. I've painted about the same amount of DAK, and have another box of plastic DAK on the painting table.



Me and some friends are planning a big North Africa game in the not too distant future. We have guys building Italians, French, and more Rats and DAK. It should be pretty epic!

Here are some pics:

The DAK!

ACW



Figures fresh off the painting table!


Here's a test post to see if I can post to the blog with a mobile app! If it works out ok it will be great to post on the fly from conventions and shows! 



Here are some 28mm Old Glory ACW figures I recently painted. I'll be using these for my favorite set of tactical ACW rules "Johnny Reb"! This is my first foray into painting limbers and I think I'll paint one limber per battery.



Cheers! Cory
