Oh So Close

So I genuinely am making progress and I have now just got 3 stands of cavalry left, as well as about 5 command bases. I've even cut the bases for the town sectors. Pictures will be available soon...

Also news about Morecambe Bay Storm, we finished the season 5-4-1, I've got to admit I was out injured for the last few games and in our play-off quarter final we lost to an excellent team in the Shropshire Revolution. All in all an excellent season and we hope to bounce back even stronger next year (albeit I personally need a lot of work still doing on my shoulder). If you want to give it a go then we have a rookie day on the 8th October - come try it out.

In other news I have also got arriving soon Flashpoint: Fire Rescue. This was recently on Tabletop (although they didn't seem to last very long?). SO I'll review this and show you pictures in action.

Finally (in this fast paced piece) I am also looking to buy Rommel by Sam Mustafa when it is released. I already have a good amount of 10mm WW2 models and if it works it could be possible to build up to some of the huge battles of WW2 including Operation Market Garden, Leningrad, D-Day or the Bulge! Already looking at a grid marked battlemat (although unsure which sized squares to buy).

Gaming Plan 2017

Its a bit late in the day but here we go, my gaming plan for this year.

Morecambe Bay Storm

First of all training for the Storm; as of Thursday I'm going to be back on cycling to and from work. Once training proper starts will endeavour to attend 2 sessions a week (at least 1) and will make up any missed sessions with a workout.
Will also be starting on 7 minute workout (twice a day) to get trim.
As time goes on I'm sure this will evolve appropriately.

Existing Models

I have a number of units I have already got models for and need to be painted in the following priorities:

Bolt Action Fallschirmjager 28mm
Frostgrave Forces 28mm - not just for use in Frostgrave but also potentially for DnD, Lion Rampant and Evernight Campaign for Savage Worlds
Spearkrieg 10mm - got a load of stuff including completion of Airborne Division and commandos
Seven Years War 6mm
Tour of Darkness Vietnam Forces 28mm
Modern Naval Forces in 1/3000

Forces to Buy

I've got plenty to go at at the moment and I don't currently see anything likely - only possibility would be an OPFOR for either Bolt Action or Seven Years War. Gates of Antares is a thought but nothing more at the moment. Reinforcements my be bought if needed for Bolt Action but I don't see anything else anywhere at moment.

Tabletop Games to Play

Priority at the moment is to get my Bolt Action force done and a few practice games so that I can take part in a campaign at House Lancaster Gaming.

My Spearkrieg forces will definitely get a few run outs and me and JT will continue with our Frostgrave campaign. I'd like to actually play in a RPG campaign but time away from house isn't able to be on a regular set basis so I'd probably have to run myself for now - Storm takes priority on this front I'm afraid. I may have a look through the Evernight campaign and see if I have sufficient figures.
