Imagin-Nations Figures

Here is another Imaginations Mounted Officer and Gun crew that i have recently Painted for Craig aas part of his WSS starter army deal. The officer and crew are Front Rank figures and the Horse is one of mine from my ACW range. The next posting will be of some Front Rank Austrian WSS Cuirassiers which are also part of Craigs pack. I hope to post these pictures by the weekend if work committments will leave me alone so i can paint.

CSA Charging

Another part of my projects is to paint some ACW units which are part of our army deals. I have posted pictures of the Firing Line and of a 6pdr gun and crew. Here now is the start of a CSA charging unit which will be 16 figures strong all taken from our our range of ACW.

Heidrich Wurzen (from the Imagin-Nation army)

This is the first Mounted Officer i have painted for Craig and his Imagin-Nation Army he is of course another Front Rank Personality and i believe his name is Heidrich Wurzen.

FoW comming soon

I have decided to give FoW a go and i am in the process of getting an order together for their basic WW2 range which will include the rule book and supplements as well as of course their unit packs etc... We are also going to look at open days with participation games and sausage sizzle etc.. for those gamers who are happy to come along check our products and have a chat or a game. We will keep you posted more on this when we know exactly what we intend to do.

cheers

Imagi-Nation Gun & Crew

As part of our painted Army deals that we are currently running i have been asked to paint an Imagi-Nations army using Front Rank WSS figures. Part of this army is 2 crewed guns which i have started painting. The picture is of the first gun and crew finished for Craig which i hope he likes. The Pictures unfortunately aren't the best but i think you get the general view of how they look.

Game Over

The opposition has gone and the room is left in piece. The table is 14'x 6' which is a good size to host many different games. I have placed some great prints around the walls to make it more interesting and store all my painted armies in plastic storgae boxes under the table.

General de Brigade

Today i played a General de Brigade game with a mate Mark Piper his son Rob, my brother Ken, and my oldest son James. It was a British Portugese V French game of around 16 units per side. We have elected to use a ratio of 1:40 so an average battalion is 16 figures strong. The scenario was a simple on with The British Allied forces needing to hold the river crossing and fortified farm. The French started with great success forcing the Highlaanders our of the farmn surprisingly in the first round of combat helped by a really bad dice role from Mark. French success continued pretty much through the whole game which ended with the colapse of the British right flank. The rules were great and worked really well using the firing charts from Die Kriegskunst the SYW variant of General de Brigade which we also like to use.
