Ouch!, and Ouch! again

[Mancha]

Man, tonight I cut myself with my scalpel, for the first time in quite a while, and then I glued my fingertips together!  That was a first.  Thank God for helpful super glue de-bondage advice on the internet.

To provide some excuse for this post, here's what I was working on:



Recognize it PeteMurray?

ooh shiny you should award that Quar the Purple heart

[Trencher]

In Quar terms: Therefore you will be awarded with the Assault Cluster with the Red Tear (indicating posthumously)

Interesting use of this Ford armoured car. This is an excellent idea. Do you mind posting some more WIP-pics?
Especially one of the gwagenaer (= vehiclequar).

[PeteMurray]

Oh lord. I should have expected nothing less than blood out of this point.

Some history!

1. Mancha posts some stuff to trade here.
2. I offer some Asien Korps and Betty Steele. Mancha accepts.
3. I can't find the Asien Korps in the local lead reserve. I figure I must have moved them ahead of our summer move with the rest of the strategic lead reserve to my folks' place. I dispatch my father to find the minis. I guide him by phone to the likely location, and he says he's got them and will drop them by.
4. These turn out to be Turks. I tell Mancha I'll find them later, sorry for the delay. By now I have Mancha's half of the trade in hand.
5. I don't get to the strategic lead reserve until a week later. The Asien Korps have vanished completely.
6. Embarrassed beyond belief, I offer Mancha credit to Brigade. Mancha accepts. The armored Model T is part of a tack-on he adds to the order.
7. Betty Steele (who was posted separately) comes back - the USPS tells me that the envelope is too thick! I resend Betty.
8. Mancha earns the Assault Cluster with Tear (live award).

I prophesise that that Ford will go on to bring woe on the tabletop. It will never be indifferent - it will carry the day or cost the victory. It is a vehicle shrouded in omens of doom!

How about cerbydaer? Nice A/C.

It was probably about time I went through some misery related to that trade.  Hey, it's too bad you didn't tell me what your father did[/unearth], as I might have been interested in Turks.  (You didn't need to hear that now, did you? )

I think that sorry tale calls for a :
