Koppi,

Another bold and pertinent posting I think.

"Red Army vs. Blue Army" - really, almost the essence [perhaps pure dimension] of wargaming (btw, I'm a big fan on the C&C games too).

If just a 'finishing touch' suggestion, for you or Jens on these 3D print miniatures - perhaps make the bases separate prints (if they're not already), so they can be printed out in green, or easily spray painted a green before joining.

These are great. I like the Europe Asunder miniatures shown on the blog even better than the more elegant ones.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Good points in your post (as well as neat figures).


Sometimes we cannot see the game for the figures - I've gone back to using troop blocks (here) and having more fun (see here) than I've had for years!
