WIP pics (reverse order)









Lastest gameboard installation (sort of participative gaming http://uluelsomalien.blogspot.com/2011/02/beaute-et-demesure-episode-5.html)









Full context on Prepainted & Co now (poorly) translated for non-french readers.

I hope I just don't kill your PC with those heavy pictures.

Nifty stuff. The table's very impressive.

When I click this link I get some rather absurd Bible studies website. Is this just me?

Nice stuff!

Getting into Moderns myself, the only thing though I have to say with the genre is it is difficult to really make a scenario that can fit into your average room!

Also given since the 1990s there have been very few Proper Conventional wars between equal states to have a real hectic battle (Recent Georgian war and the previous bucket of wars before hand are perhaps it!), and given most wars fought these days for now are in Africa or the Middle East its always difficult to have something where mass armor battles are used!

Space is not a REAL problem. I've got 6 30X30 cm square of "green gaming table" and a skirmish sized grey table (cover a third of my desert table).  :D
and I will used many different settings but with little part from the previous (on GW rulebook, they gave an example : they used the scenery from left side, put it on right side and then add new scenery on left side, as front moves)

(two sided) Full armored battle is a bit tricky because the opponents never have the same "technology level" or if they have, they'll put some aircraft to have some superiority then anti-aircraft tanks then anti-armor infantry. Neverending spiral.

But yes, need vast plains with hills to have some "Koursk 2010" time.
