A quick game of "Frostgrave" (or should that be "Forestgrave  lol) using one of the scenarios published in issue 85 of Wargames Soldiers and Strategy.





It was a blast.

Only my second game of Blood Bowl in the last decade.  A first outing for a Chaos team of mine  :)

Codsticker - I like the idea of gaming in front of the couch! Do you have a very big coffee table, or was that on the floor?

I played more 6mm SciFi - Tau vs Squats. The Tau attack was shot to pieces by the dug in Squats - this is kind of mid game, where the Tau aircraft (flying very low) have attacked but not really caused enough damage. Things went downhill for them from here

Well, some will have seen these pictures before and will roll their eyes.  It's been more than three years since I've had a game at the house.  Largely because I have been on an unending job search for nearly two years.  I have had games at a couple of friends' houses, but don't have pics to show.

This is a WWII hypothetical Soviet counter attack with the stands representing a squad and the vehicles and guns representing 1 vehicle or gun.  Mix of 1/72 and 1/76:



The above scene in a farm complex is just beyond the distant hill in this image, below:



Throw this one in too, I guess.  In the picture below, the T-26 tanks on the hill in the above picture have come down and one of the farm's buildings can be seen to the left.  In the bottom left corner, a T-26 has demonstrated exactly what it thinks of the German Pak 36 that gave a lot of grief to that column of tanks in the above picture.  The infantry battle at the farm in the first picture above is taking place to the left of the picture.

Hi,
Here is a photo of the last wargame I played, French Foreign Legion verses Arabs using The Men Who Would be Kings rules.  The Arabs were my figures and the Legion were from the collection of my late friend and long time wargames opponent John Pearson, who sadly passed away from cancer in May.  The game was held at the Glasgow G3 Annual Spencer Warner Memorial Day, a day of gaming held by the club annually on the last Saturday in November in memory of one of the club's founders who also sadly passed away from cancer a few years ago.  All proceeds from the club's Spencer Warner Day go to MacMillan Cancer support and this year we raised over £500.

 I cant believe it is 3 years since Spencer passed away.Met him a few times at the Glasgow show and Carronade too.He was one of those people who loved miniatures and could talk for ages about all different ranges.Sadly missed.

Well we played another round of car wars. Fast track arena with six cars.



Lots of collisions and cars rolling over with tires being shot out. It was epic.  :o



the blue car almost won the day even though he had suffered major damage early on in the game. It was the last to be put out of commission so the "skull" won the arena trophy and salvage rights  :D Great game.

Me too  :D I have been fortunate enough to convince two of my gaming friends to play it more often.

I actually use a simplified version (Using an enlarged maneuver template) for the modern zombie stuff I'm doing.  Love using that template!:)

A WW2 eastern front 12mm game using a homebrew set of rules and Minifigs, Wargame South, 20th Century & Trumpetier 144th scale models.



Germans by-passing (and assaulting) a Russian strongpoint.



Panzergrenadiers preparing to assault a Russian infantry line (complete with sandbagged HMG)



Batt'n HQ & heavy support company.

We use a version of the old McCoy standard units for our OBs.  We find they still work fine after all these years.  They use a 1 model = about 5 vehicles scale and these match the combat rules we use.

So very sorry to hear about your friend.

I like the kind of picture you show here, sort of low down at, or near, the perspective of the figures.
