The whole fun of this hobby is to enjoy it. If you are happy with what you do then thats nothing short of perfect. Never feel pressured to show your toys or embarrassed by what you may feel is not to the very highest standard. That is just not what this hobby should be about. It about fun. We all have far too many things to worry about at the moment. This hobby should be a relief from the pains of the world. Must go now and count the toilet rolls
I look forward to see this spiral out of control. I started out with the same idea. But that is not where I ended up
...and I hope your other half has forgiven you for your Huey splurge over the weekend
Never; I'll be strong. Oh, did I mention I have two books coming in from Amazon and am watching that Netflix documentary on the Vietnam War? Hueys.... mmm.Did you know an Ontos could be transported, slung, under a Jolly Green Giant? Hopefully no-one makes these to match 28mm scale.
You are already on a slippery slope.
(whisper) Give it to me straight, I'm doomed, right? Didn't even know they had these, so :
My escalation for this period seems increasingly to mirror the real thing. Started with a relatively small-scale French Indo China engagement which was looking like it might be under control for a while, but things are getting badly out of hand now the US have arrived.I suspect my timeline for completing this could echo the real thing too :-)
The parallels between the conflict and the challenge of gaming it have also occurred to me, and no doubt to others. In fact I was just thinking that the present difficulties of maintaining hygiene are not totally dissimilar to those faced by troops in the bush, and particularly on LRRP. If I may be forgiven for raising a sensitive subject which is difficult to discuss without risking giving offence, I am referring specifically to the disposal of bodily waste, and the prevention of ailments relating to poor field hygiene. While we all know the arrangements made to counter the dreaded crotch rot, I have no intention of proposing a survey on the merits of going commando. I am, however, wondering whether any of the more knowledgeable members would like to share some effective field sanitation tips to maintain a healthy LAF community.
Thanks Paul, but I was really hoping for advice on what type of leaf to press into service.
