Interesting read.

Good to see another more modern Technical.

Spectre do seem to have some odd ideas about starter sets. Simplicity is best.

I think a lot of the stuff in the last year has been a little odd. For a starter pack, I'd have gone for basically matching (two Assault Rifle, AR/UGL, LMG, SMG, DMR) except one guy who could have something special to play around with. I'd think this may be a little more about rotating old stock than actually being a good intro to the rules.

I love it so much - it dwarfs the humvees to the point where it looks silly. I dread to see how it's going to be on the field.

*sweats* Yeah, I made some mistakes on Monday just after posting it :v

Nice update.
Look forward to seeing your painting on the fantasy figures.
Also the Zona Alfa rules look interesting.

I wonder if Zona Alfa is going to be the Post Apocalypse Frostgrave?

So how does the wet palette work?

I'd say it's pretty close, definitely that feel. I'm looking forward to digging into it more.

The wet pallette is basically a wet sponge + parchment paper. it lets the paint on the top draw just a little bit of water up to keep it damp. So far it's a good system, will be especially useful when painting platoons/squads.

I am debating on picking up that tactics Imperial set my self. But might wait to o see if any locals are interested first.
Also great news on the Empress front. Those are some much needed kit for the late war Brits. Maybe get some anti-tank guns while we are AT it. From fingures crossed for some bofers and a light mountain gun from the book.  :D
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
