Apocalypse 1929 (This Green and Unpleasant Land) Spawning Point! (13/04)

[Mason]

Will be great to hear the results of playtesting. Have you found/done suitable stowage yet?

To be honest, I have not tried too hard as I have taken a bit of a break from all of my projects for a few weeks.
I am off next week, so hopefully get some playtesting done and no doubt that will kickstart my enthusiasm.

Is there going to be different types of the 'Affected' with different types of traits or all of them are just same shambling mass?

As i will be using the existing Strange Aeons rules with a twist, there will be several different types of 'Affected' in play, including some that have not seen 'official' release yet, along with an idea or two of my own.

Love the Bentleys,you will have to get an Wolf Barnarto (can't remember the spelling...),a chap who raced Bentleys in the period,and who has a very cool name

[Brummie Thug]

Superb looking vehicles Mason, nicely weathered.

The Strange Aeons crossover makes sense - it always helps if you can double-up and get extra use out of minis and terrain. Looking forward to hearing how the playtesting goes!
As for my own State-side 1920s zombie apocalypse project - I'm hoping to use the LPL7 to get some minis (and maybe some terrain!) painted, so fingers crossed (although, not, obviously, while I'm trying to paint...).

Black Cat Bases have few suitcases/luggage items, I think those would look spiffy as magnetised "stowage" for your survivors' vehicles. And since you have started sculpting, you could make several other items in similar vein, eg. travel boxes etc?

And zombies won't stop them from having a well deserved cuppa either....the dirty rotters.

With much admiration to the man himself and many apologies to anyone whom this might offend.

This is my version of the man himself Sargent Alfred Knight the only member of the Post Office Rifles to be awarded a VC in WW1
http://www.postalheritage.org.uk/page/alfredknight

He shall be leading my team in a very British zombie apocalypse.
God help all, living or dead, who try to stop the mail getting through.

[Mason]

That is top notch, mate.
Love the man mail bag!
 

I should have a couple of new recruits for you soon.


Everything is ready for that first playtest, just let me know when you are about.
The Post Office Rifles shall be the first to brave This Green and Unpleasant Land!

The Survivor Group List is in the (e)mail...
Get sorting!

Thanks, James!
The Modelmates stuff was being sold at Salute last year on a stand that was doing demos of the whole range.
I guess they were representing the company itself.
It is highly recomended, as it is so easy to use.

Cheers Mason and Blackwolf. After reading about him while looking up post uniforms it seemed a bit to good to not include him. I have painted another mini in uniform to accompany him on his rounds ( and have some more that I'm itching to get my mits on...cheers again Mason old chap) but to be fair..  well..  she looks a bit like she fell asleep smoking a cigar...so im working on another lass ( non uniform this time)...the adventurous lady Penny Black.
