One of our local model railway clubs hold their annual show in the Maritime Museum, Irvine. Excellent idea and a win-win for hobby and museum. Lots of micro layouts that can be done in minimal space. And the Ayrshire Scale Modellers brought some fine kits.

It's a bit more complex than the other Undaunteds, but I like the differences between the two sides and between the squads.

The sci-fi background is based on a historical mining conflict apparently.

Appropriately, given my online talk on the Napoleonic Wars in the Adriatic this evening, I am leading Marmont against the Austrians. The first division has made a bold attack on the Austrian flank.
