This weekend we meet with some friends from the south for a massive RCW encounter. Here you see Markovs and Kornilovs Officers Regiments gathering in Bylefeldsk centre. I´ll post more pics later.

Two RCW/BoB reports on the forum in one day?! These are the times of doom I tell you!

Post by: Lt. Hazel on 12 December 2010, 12:09:37 PM: It was a lot of fun. The whole setup was a collaboration, not only my stuff! But it was really impressing to the so many painted miniatures on one table.

Post by: Calimero on 12 December 2010, 01:10:49 PM: Look like it was a fun game indeed. It’s always nice to see pictures of beautifully painted figures on a nice looking wargame boards like these ones 8)

Post by: Malkav on 12 December 2010, 01:32:21 PM: Really nice pictures of a great looking game. Keeps me motivated to get some paint on my reds!
Did you use the T&T rules?
Title: Re: RCW Weekend
Post by: Remington on 12 December 2010, 02:00:57 PM: I am very glad that you had fun, Lt.! Looking forward to hearing how you coped with the rules.

Yes, we used the T+T rules.
Killshot, the wooden houses are from Pegasus, 1/72 Plastic kits. All other stuff was scratchbuild by Nils. I don´t know if there´s a tutorial out there, sorry!
Title: Re: RCW Weekend
Post by: Remington on 12 December 2010, 06:05:05 PM: Sadly there isn't. I am certain of it. As far as I know he used pretty simple and quick methods to achieve these result. Foamcore board and corrugated board for the roofs will do the trick.

Edit: For the window profiles he used bits of sprue if I can remember correctly.

Post by: Turbo-Ben on 12 December 2010, 07:01:09 PM: I think they are the small plastic crosses for floor or wall tiles which hobbycraftsmen like to use.
Title: Re: RCW Weekend
Post by: Remington on 12 December 2010, 07:45:47 PM: Ah yes! You are right!

Hey Ben, you lucky bugger! Did you enjoy the games? :)

Thanks Lt Hazel, I didn't realize they made those houses. They look great and the price seems to very reasonable.
