Oh for sure, totally ended up with decals stuck on me whilst I’m looking at a bare tank… “where’d it go?!”

Micro Sol and micro set are your friends. I do a stupid amount of coats.

So I am back! I am working again, but have a backlog of work. Orders are likely to take about a week to get processed at the moment, but I am hoping that that will fall rapidly over the next couple of weeks.

Thank you to everyone that has supported me during my illness, it is greatly appreciated.

I made a couple of small purchases of carts and crates etc for tabletop scatter, and had great time soaking up the atmosphere. My thanks to @adambuxton.bsky.social for catering, and some reading material.
Always impressed by the gaming community.

Cracking day at #Salute52
I caught up with a few people; Sarah played her first ever wargame in the What A Tanker put in by @joewargamer.bsky.social in the @toofatlardies.bsky.social Lard Zone and had a blast, the seamless system allowing her to focus about tactics after a couple of turns.

These were marvellous, and very well received! Cheers buddy!

Finished this lovely quartet of buildings based on real buildings in Caen. Patrick from PatrickMiniatures was kind enough to design and send me these prints for free for my Caen table. Hes done an amazing job with them!

Cheers Joe, we’d come to the conclusion it was ideal for our needs. Got a cheap source?

What are you using for the base? Just been discussing suitable materials. Is that foamex?

Following with interest, I built my 15mm one, but other than for test games, haven’t done anything with it

It was great sailing alongside you Des, albeit my luck with the dice was abysmal!

Underused tactics in Chain of Command

Six rule mechanics that I think new players to Chain of Command tend to under utilise #spreadthelard

Some housekeeping: remember to tag Lard related posts with #spreadthelard. It will then be picked up by the Too Fat Lardies dedicated feed. You don’t tag it, it can’t be seen by others in the feed. The Lard expects everyone to do their duty in this regard.
