Warhammer the Old World
Back in the day, I used to, along with nearly everyone I know, had an army for Warhammer Fantasy Battles (WFB). The return this year got me excited, and I’ve done a lot of work on a proxy Tomb Kings army, based upon a Spartan themed army. The new rulebook for The Old World… Some Continue reading

A Long Delayed Update
It’s been many months since I entered anything on here, and it’s not like I haven’t been gaming. Far from it! I’ve painted a ton, and throughout most of the Summer, I played in and hosted a good number of games, a lot of which was in anticipation of my families’ move down to Louisiana. Continue reading

Battle of Blanc Mont Ridge, October 3, 1918
A few weeks ago I hosted a game at the local game store depicting a portion of the battle, which involved French and Americans attacking the German positions. The Americans didn’t make a showing in the game, and the French forces were less than I had planned. As a result, the game was a difficult attack for Continue reading

Second Battle of the Aisne, April 1917
We played a game today recreating a portion of the 2nd Battle of the Aisne in April & May 1917. The particular section was the advance by a large number of Schneider CA.1 tanks; the first significant use of tanks by the French during the Great War. I’ve selected a few of the best pictures Continue reading

Great War; The Third Battle of the Aisne
I’m not posting descriptions for this, just the pictures from this game, that went very well as the Germans poured through British lines, slowly being reduced, but not quite enough to keep them from their objective; the bridge over the Aisne, which would set up the next stage of the battle. https://www.facebook.com/groups/314945359158358/permalink/1347268375926046/ Continue reading

Battle for the Narva Ithsmus, July 1944
I threw together this Flames of War game at nearly the last minute, so I had to work with the models that I already own and have painted. It represents a portion of the Soviet attacks over the Narva River that Summer, with the Axis forces all being foreign SS formations, in particular the Estonian Continue reading

First Battle
We played a fictional battle today with attacking British attempting to wrest a small village and adjacent farms from the Americans. In the end, their casualties were too great, and the former colonists held the field. Continue reading

Berlin 1945; Attack to the Brandenburg Gate
I’ve not posted in a while, and I thought that I’d share some of the photos that I took of the Flames of War game that I organized for my local gaming group a little while back. The concept was the advance through central Berlin on 30 April – 2 May 1945 that was happening Continue reading

Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game – Tournament Pictures
This past weekend, I ran the latest version of a tournament event that I’ve named “Fords of the Potomac”. This being the ninth go-around, I’ve attached “IX” to the end of the event name. It was hosted at my local gaming store, Huzzah Hobbies, where I can be found once or twice a week, playing Continue reading

Flames of War Progress
As I mentioned, I am working on Berlin terrain lately. Here is the bridge that I plan to use as a stand-in for the Moltke Bridge, which needed to be captured by the Russians right before they began their assault on the Reichstag. And these have nothing to do with Berlin, but I just finished 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.
