Bolt Action BEF from Wargames Atlantic
Just a few months ago, I bought the fairly new British Expeditionary Force (BEF) / Home Guard box from Wargames Atlantic. It was my first WW2 box from WA that I built and painted, and I thought they worked out really well and fit very well with the official Warlord Games models. I was very Continue reading

Warlord Games’ Epic Napoleonic Black Powder
Some of the people near where I live now were talking about playing Black Powder in Warlord Games’ Epic Scale, which I think is around 13mm in size. Being ready to jump into just about any game that people are actually painting forces for, and seeing how the entry cost was fairly reasonable (probably less Continue reading

Warmaster Revolution
A few months ago a few of my gaming friends, separated by a thousand miles, expressed interest in the revised Warmaster game. If you aren’t familiar, this was an “Epic” scale game released by Games Workshop in the early 2000s that didn’t hang around a long time. And it slept, only played by a very Continue reading

France 1940 Bolt Action Game
I wanted to organize a large game using Bolt Action, but focusing on a scenario that depicted an historical situation and forces, rather than simply a points match, 6-turn game as the group I game with most often does. We set aside a Friday evening (which proved to be too much of a time constraint) Continue reading

France 1940 Scenario Build
I’m trying to collect the forces and terrain for the Scenario Book I have. It wasn’t written for Bolt Action, as it predates it by quite a few years, but it should work just fine for it. I laid out some of the terrain that I have for it the other day, and realized that Continue reading

Bolt Action 1940 French
I’ve been working on these for a few months. Most of the models are from Crusader Miniatures, a UK company. Those would be the motorcycle troops. the rest are from Warlord Games, the producer of Bolt Action. My Char B1 Bis, before priming and painting. I haven’t built a plastic model kit bigger than 1:100 Continue reading

Battle of Harlem Heights, 1776
A while back I set up a multi-player game using the Rank & File rules. I just took a few pictures of the game, which came out looking good. I wish that I had taken a few more! Continue reading

Middle Earth SBG; Arnor vs. Angmar
Images of last night’s game at Little Wars in Baton Rouge; the first scenario in the new Angmar book. We played 9 turns out of 12, and my Arnor force was down to just 3 models, so due to time and the near impossibility of even gaining a tie, we ended the game at that Continue reading

More Flames of War! This time, Americans
Something inside me always wanted to put together the forces to play a game of Germans vs. Americans for Flames of War for the Battle of the Bulge. I found some of the Winter Americans in overcoats, and bought a bunch more from Battlefront, and painted them some time back. I have nice Company painted, Continue reading

WWII Flames of War North Africa Italians and British
Due to the popularity of North African forces amongst my old gaming friends, and the good deals I found on some of the Battlefront boxed sets, I recently began to put together my own armies for that part of WWII. So far, I’ve completed a tank company for the Italians, with some supporting units, and Continue reading
About Me
I’ve been painting miniature figures since I was young, and playing games with them for most of that time. You’ll learn a little bit about me over time as you read my posts, if you visit this site from time to time.
