Blue eyed Dal Riadan Celt with more wargames minis than space and a vinyl collection that was the soundtrack for the sack of Rome (all Goth innit!). Sometimes goes walking too.

Thanks for playing. I'd like to give it another outing at some point.

Some shots from the Tank Banzai scenario for Chain of Command 2. @stormofsteel.bsky.social Alex managed to snatch a Force Morale victory for the Japanese. The US Marines took a battering but did dish out a fair bit of punishment. Great game. Saipan 1944.

Chain of Command 2 with @stormofsteel.bsky.social at the Outpost tonight. Playing @tacticalpainter.bsky.social 's Tank Banzai scenario from WSS magazine 138. Will it play different in 15mm?

So true. Especially when you decide to stick to a plan rather than become more flexible.

A rather sobering game of Chain of Command 2 this evening. Soviet SMG platoon vs German Panzer Grenadiers. 'Just couldn't get the dice combinafions to suit the Soviets and also forgot all about repositioning! An easy victory for @stormofsteel.bsky.social . Good game.

After some advice. Almost completed these 15mm US Marines. The bases are currently natural sand. I am wondering whether to leave as is, highlight paint a brighter sand and or add some tufts/ flock. Any views? I'll be adding coloured tufts to some to mark out officers and NCOs.

I am convinced I spend more time making gardens and allotments for Chain of Command than I actually spend playing!

'Marines. Thousands of 'em!' Slight exaggeration but I've got two platoons with supports progressing the workbench. Ultimately for Chain of Command 2. A mix of Battlefront, Eureka and Peter Pig minis.

Oh, interesting. I was comtemplating Midgard in 15mm but using 28mm base and distances with just more minis on the base.

Game end and the Faughs and Skins did not manage to take the bridge. An aggressive German defence stalled the Kangaroo Army advance comprehensively. Chain of Command 2.

The buildings are all 3d prints, mostly via Highland Printd ( on Ebay UK) and Battle Honours. Other bits and pieces a mix of scratch builds and prints. Hedging and roads by Fat Frank (again Ebay UK) tarted up with Green Stuff World shrubbery.

I may pass on painting sweaty armpits on 15mm minis!

Completely unnecessary but a little bit of icing to bling up the game cake.

My biggest decision is what uniform to go with. Camo seems both variable and period and location specific.

Finished today. Some spare 15mm figures given a magnetic base and repurposed as Force Morale trackers for Chain of Command 2.
