Title: Chief Inspector Johnson & Section H of Scotland Yard (Update - S & W added)
Post by: steharan on 28 June 2013, 11:18:34 AM: Hi Guys

Well I finally managed to paint up my Scotland Yard (apart from the Consulting Detective, Good Doctor and Special Branch Sergeant however I have plans for them ;)).

More pics and a bio for all of Section H on my blog - http://offtclub.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/ihmn-scotland-yard.html.

It turns every game into an episode in a Penny dreadful :)

Well done Ste.

Post by: Craig on 30 June 2013, 10:14:13 AM: Or you could say it brings out the nascent 'author' in you :)

You've stoked my brush-aversion self-hatred AND non-buyer's remorse concerning the lads of the Yard. lol

Haven't even got to your blog, yet.

Lovely group, looking forward AAR's to torture me further. ;)

There really is a lot of balance among them, once the guy pushing them around learns which tactics works for those particular gentlemen. It's also amusing how often Holmes' Erudite Wit comes into play.

Post by: steharan on 18 July 2013, 08:13:21 AM: Indeed, he's a sneaky one that Holmes.

The Scotland Yard list highlights how well the system works when you utilise the right set of Talents. I've played with a British Rifle Company who are just brutal however they can fall to the more abstract tactics of the Yard who are clearly less "combat" oriented.
