Adventures in Wargaming

Year: 2020

  • SITREP – Enforcer Number 2 (Tiny Me)

    Another week, another enforcer done in the new pattern. And stupidly I managed to pick a figure in exactly the same pose, just with a different weapon/head. This time I picked up one of the shotgun figures, one modelled after some of my airsoft kit (complete with helmet and chest-mounted pistol). I had a lot…

  • SITREP – Test Painting Enforcers

    Last week’s paint session was me finally getting some paint on the first of my Enforcers. It’s taken me a while to work out which scheme I actually wanted to do, but I finally came up with one that I think is suitable for a group of Space Faring Mercs in the 41st Millenium. Dark…

  • December Project Update

    New month, time for a little update. Seeing as last month was really the intro to all the projects on my plate, this month is a bit more of a check in. Monday evening painting sessions are going ahead, and forming a nice bit of routine in my week (even if I’m struggling to maintain…

  • SITREP – Cultists and Bases

    Cultists of all kinds are a common foe in the various nations of the Midgardian Empire. Although no match for the regular forces, they can provide troublesome to scattered adventurers or remote pre-industrial villages. Three more of Northstar’s impressive figures from the Rangers of the Shadow Deep range. I really like their design, with the…

  • SITREP – Misc Hobby

    One thing I noticed while doing these models is that I really need to up my bases game. The mud look is… not great. It does the job but it’s missing all sense of greenery. So after talking with my wargaming group about their recommendations, I’ve ended up grabbing these base ready bags from Geek…

  • SITREP – Siccarian Senator

    The nation of Siccarian is a proud member of the Midgardian Empire, trading it’s highly trained Legionnaires (experienced from border skirmishes and rough discipline) to maintain a certain amount of independence. Led by a Triumvirate elected from among the Senate, Siccarian is a land filled with political intrigue and decadence, that could almost rival the…

  • SITREP – Zorros Coliveri, Swordmaster

    A member of the same order as O’Dicca and Jochman, Zorros Coliveri, son of Volpe Coliveri, has been described by many others as “a bounder, a cad and a villain of the highest order.” He is also, however, a very successful agent of the Midgardian Empire, an expert in hiring the scum of the underworld…

  • SITREP – Enforcers (Part 4)

    Another Monday hangout (chatting with a fellow friend about how to make some more cultists for his Necromunda gang) but also, we got into the final week of assembly for my Enforcers! Yeah, I’m shocked as well. With a total of 16 plastic figures (and a secret additional set that arrived this week), this project…

  • SITREP – Enforcers (Part 3)

    First Monday in November so I spent it building some rather large lads for my Enforcers. The Subjugators are the rather large gentlemen who will be kicking in some doors, taking the lead (and the incoming lead) when it comes to breaking into the gang hideout. After working out a rough list, I needed to…

  • November Projects Update

    It’s time for a new month! And with the UK about to re-enter national lockdown (not that I’ve noticed much different), there is probably going to be a little more hobby time. As you’ve seen, I’ve really enjoyed posting my little updates, helped especially by the Monday painting sessions with my Dastardly Regular Opponent among…

  • News: Anthalonica Wargaming

    One exciting thing about Modern Wargaming is seeing a new company coming online doing something new. Anthalonica Wargaming is one such new company, coming out soon with a release of brand new range focused around police action in the UK. They have already shown off a few sculpts and I have to say, I’m pretty…

  • News: Spectre Halloween Releases

    Well it’s the spookiest time of the year, and with things coming back to life, what a better time for Spectre to release it’s new figures! Following on from the previews earlier this month, we now have all four of those releases as well as a special halloween release! This fighter is wearing basic and…

  • SITREP – Monday Construction

    Another Monday in quarantine, another hobby sessions with people. As well as my opponent (still in Marine land), two other wargaming friends jumped in to work on some projects (tiny Knights and yet more Space Marines). I of course was working on something totally different… Space Marines! Wait… Yeah, I’ve finally finished assembling all the…

  • Chain of Command – Attack on Al-Papsi: Part 2

    Back in the heady days of September we actually played the second mission in the campaign set in North Africa. However, before we get into the battle, I finally rolled up the details of my command team, using the details from the At The Sharp End PDF book. Name Background Age Origin Description Senior Leader…

  • SITREP – Enforcers (Part 2)

    Another Monday, another long-distance painting session with the Dastardly Regular Opponent. While he started work on some more armour for our chain of command games, I decided to take a break from painting Space Marines to assemble some more of my Enforcers. Remember them? Well, I have managed to start putting the basic list together…
