Fistful of Lead

With the return of club gaming, Mitch decided to run a FFOL game using his old west collection. I remembered that I had a box of assorted cowboys, lawmen etc stored somewhere so dug them out. Selecting 4 suitable figures after I had rebased them all.

4 Lawmen to bring justice to the streets. There were 3 other factions in play. Some Cowboys, dastardly Mexicans and the Earps. It was a simple scenario of locating a certain individual and returning him to your starting location.

The rules are simple and fun and make for a quick game. I was lucky enough to locate the target and return him to jail. Now for pictures of the game.











Great fun and Stargrave next week

SCW Carlists

With enthusiasm renewed, I quickly completed another section of Carlists. Just like the last batch these are all from Empress miniatures. I kept to the same colour scheme for these with the exception of the blanket roll. I'll do the same again for the 3rd and HQ sections for a bit of irregularity.


I've now got the 3rd section prepped and underway. Hopefully complete them by the weekend.

SCW update

It's been a while since my last update. Not much painting has been getting done as I've been busy with work. However I have made a small start on 2 new platoons for this project. 

First up is 4 FAI-CNT militia from Empress miniatures. The flag is from Flags of War.



These bring my militia up to 15 figures, will need another 18 to complete the platoon. I envisage the sections being 10 figures with the command section just 3 figures.

The second platoon I'm working on is some Carlists for the Nationalist cause. I've put together the first section of infantry,  these again are from Empress miniatures.



I do have enough figures to complete the Carlist platoon. As I'm rather enjoying these I may go on to complete a second platoon. I've still got Panzer 1 and some artillery to also finish.
