For the time being...

My gaming budget has been closed for the near future. We are saving all of the coin we can; hopefully we will be moving in the early part of 2007.

Of course, I have plenty of minis to paint! My son's friend, suddenly realising that Ultramarines are better than Tau, gave me one of his Fire Warrior squads, and a squad of Sniper Drones. My Tau army is definitely complete; I just need to paint it all...

During this enforced time off, I will be scheming and plotting for a new plan of projects for the future. We are still going to work on armies for Reaper's Warlord game - Reptus and Elves. I am still planning on a 28mm Italian Wars Renaissance project. And I am seriously thinking about a 10mm Punic Wars project.

The key to all of these historical projects is a decent set of rules. It does not need to be the same rules for Punic and Renaissance; it just needs to be one I'm comfortable with using at home and at conventions.

Not done yet...

I've been away for a while! Hopefully, I can get to some real posting in the near future... my monitor has been giving me problems.

Ramilles again...





These pics were taken at the lunch-time break. By this time the action was pretty hot along the length of the battlefield. Never did find out the outcome...


Also, a shot of one of the Roman Seas scenarios, presented by Eric Hotz:

Post-Enfilade part 1

We had a great time at Enfilade this year. It was a long day, having awoken at 0300 Saturday, driving down to the hotel, gaming all day, and making it back home at 0200 Sunday!

Here is a couple of pics of the huge Ramilles game, run by Ian Croxall with 28mm minis:







I am not too familiar with this battle... these pics are from near the center of the table at the start of the battle. The tables (around 30' long) were in a dog-leg shape, and these pics are from the bend in the map.


More later...

Enfilade

Today is the start of Enfilade, the local minis convention. We (Feawin, Taeklonn, and myself) will be down there tomorrow. I will take the camera and get some shots. I am hoping to get some pics of the huge Ramilles and Little Big Horn games, but I am also hoping that I'll be too busy playing other games...
