I normally start with models then houses and then I want to play.

Those interiors are great additions and fun to watch.

The pictures also show you had some fun games, nice.

keep up the good work.

That is some great terrain! Love how the blood and plunder models look with it.

Coming back for another look and...did I spy unpainted figures in a public game!?  Oh, the travesty, the ignominious heap upon thy reputation, the calumny.  Such just isn't done.   :o >:( o_o :-I :-[ :-X :?

Looking nice. I got the Dutch box from the Kickstarter and painted them, but I've only been able to play one game so far. Definitely looking forward to seeing more from your games.

Thanks guys and some games were played with unpainted miniatures.  Sadly some of my local gaming group take forever to paint up models.  I am glad that the terrain is appreciated and I did actually start a kickstarter for it that ends this month.   Right now my time is being eaten up making sure all my ducks are in a row to speak.

I never knew how much work it would be to get the kickstarter advertised.

Quick update here this morning.  I am still on a bit of a hiatus from kickstarter wrapping some stuff up around the house.  But I managed to get some of the new release stuff done from Firelock games!  The new stone fort and heavy cannons were awesome and fast to build and paint up.

More pictures are on my blog.  https://severalgamerstales.blogspot.com/

Oh and I forgot the update on my demo/display board.  I also started work on a new building idea as well.

Back at it with some new additions to my terrain.  After finishing the stone fort I worked on the gun emplacement I ordered up.  One piece cast with nothing added to it.  I may just pick up another couple for some fun games.  Before I had to dismantle the laser cutter at work I managed to cut a quick set of acrylic templates for myself, no wind gauge yet but I have a plan for that.  Began working on a farmers field using some 3D printed fencing I pulled from thingiverse.  I wanted an irregular farm layout and am happy with my progress so far.

The farm looks like a nice start. I've built something similar, but I stacked florist's wire for the fencing and used small wood pieces for the posts. What did you use for the furrowed dirt?

Good old trusted cardboard ripped in half and roughed with a sprinkle of sand and glue.
