I love the scale of your ambition! How close are you to finishing this project off and gaming?

My interests are predominantly WWII, played in 28mm, and custom terrain-making.

You’re going to need a bigger board!

Amazing collection, Colin. Well done for picking it up again and sticking with it. The actual game looks like it’s going to  be mega  :o :o :o

Wow, that’s a lot of landing craft.

I thought I had a fair few in 10mm, but clearly not!

Tell me about the green decks - I’ve gone plain grey all-over - and you rarely see the deck in photos (and how much it would show between green and grey in B&W photos)

Much like decks were painted red in Nelson’s day to hide the blood they were painted green to hide the vomit🤮
