lovely, what rules do you use?

I'm really impressed with your campaigns and documentation. You have a very impressive collection of re-purposed and scratch-built sci models. The interludes with models and scenery are great. :-)

I find myself supremely jealous of your tall mountains. A 4" hill on our tables is about the highest things get.

You've made some amazing vehicles and buildings!

I love the rock buildings with the garden hothouse cupolas.

Why are there never any nice space Nazi's?

Some really nice stuff there.

Thanks for all the replies!

To answer some questions:

aliensurfer asked, What Rules?
Depends on the scenario. The campaign format is to start with smaller battles that confer advantages to a final climactic battle. So we start with skirmish stuff, lately Pulp Alley. Space Battles are either Star Navy or an adaptation of Bob Cordery's Memoir of War at Sea depending on who wins the coin toss between me and my opponent. The large final battles in this campaign were fought using FUBAR with hexes.

Wachaza asked, "Why are there never any nice Space Nazi's?"
Well if completely nasty and unsympathetic bad guys didn't exist we'd have to invent them.... ...oh wait ...

hamsterball mania, you will see them again in a different context soon.

They are a byproduct of a series of Apocalypse Battles we ran a few years ago. They were the only thing I could think of to block line of sight of the escalating number of Titans the participants were using. Now mostly, they make great backgrounds.

I had the inspiration for "Sector Six" after discovering the phenomena of Imagi-Nations. It has been fun and I feel like it is just beginning.

Thanks Again!

Your Type 42 Imperial Grav Tanks, are they M1 Abrams turrets with M3 Bradley turrets mounted on top of them?!? If so, they are BRILLIANT kit bashes!

I am now fallowing you on blogger. Looking forward to seeing how the peace talks with the Space Nazis pans out.

Me too, I'm a follower now. This campaign opera is silly and campy and I love every bit of it. Your terrain is awesome and I love your use of mixed minis! Using different rules for different types of games is also an idea was kicking around, its good to see it works and works well.

Why yes, good eye!

Thanks commissarmoody and Pap Spanky. New episodes soon.

Consider your idea stolen!

What scale M1 Abrams and M3 Bradleys did you use? I have a couple of New Ray 1/32 M1s and have ordered two 1/48 M3s. I am going to use the hulls from the M3s to create a couple of grav APCs.

Hello Maj,

Been enjoying your pics a lot. Love what i have seen on the blog.
Any chance of getting a better idea of what or how the different vehicles were made?
Lots of lovely kit bashes there. Infantry as well. Some are very notable but others elude me.
