One of a group who game in 54mm 1/32nd scale, started with Old West but also do Adventure (South America) and Skirmish in all periods, including SF (but the latter mostly in 90mm!). Will try to put up some photos. Be interested to hear from any other 54mm gamers here.

Welcome! It'll be interesting to see a 1/32 game. I have no experience of that.

Welcome to LAF.

I'm toying with a modern/post-apoc skirmish game using 1:32 vehicles - todate though i've got 1:35 figures, as the 1:32 ones i've seen look pretty poor, so any ideas on sources of vehicles, minis etc would be much appreciated!

Are you "the" Mike Blake of the Skirmish Wargames Group? If so, I´ve seen quite a number of your games in Wargames Illustrated. Very inspirational, although I never got further than a bunch of Spetsnaz in that scale myself; I´d still like to try it some time, though, maybe for an earlier age where firing ranges are not necessary or at least less important.

Hi there and I hope you'll feel comfi around here. It's certainly a cozy place to be... in an abstract kind of way since we're hopefully sitting in our respective homes... (continued babbeling fading out).

Not the infamous "Botch" Blake, wargaming legend ?

Occasionally played old west in 54mm, but have dabbled with other games over the years. Space usually prevents large scale games at present.

Welcome aboard, looking forward to seeing your latest pics.
