After seeing Rosie bound like that, I think I would want to rescue her as well!   :-*

Nice looking game, is that a Hirst Arts pyramid? And the Armoured Cars are from?????????????

Hi, thanks  :) The Pyramid was built from blue insulation foam for the structure with foamboard floors. All the detail bits were from Hirst Arts from moulds supplied by Will Bailey.

The Armoured Cars were made with the chassis taken from Matchbox Renault trucks with 1/72nd scale Whippet structures grafted on top.

I will try and get Will to post some photos of his German forces used in the games. He's the other side of the world from me now so I have plans to make my own opposition force from Brigade games East German troops.

I was just reading a write up Will did of one of our games. Hard to believe that was back in 2006! I am going to try and transfer it over from my old PC to my Mac so I can post it later.

Great stuff. I'm very fond of the Grouch type figure. Where is he from?

Blogging with a Mummy has to be the freshest idea for a game yet.   ;)

Just Kidding.  The Pyramid is especially nice.  Thanks for sharing.
This is my boomstick!

That is great stuff!  Both the game and figures are very well done.  The armored cars are just wonderful!  :-*

Splendid looking terrain.
Could you photograph or draw a picture of the layout?

Ok, I will see what the lighting is like this weekend in the sun room and do a shoot of the layout.
