Objective: Rifles

Well, after a little delay in getting hold of some US Armor spray, I am back painting little Americans.

The vehicles are all done, well they will be once they get their decals, so I have moved on to the infantry.

First batch done, I present to you, 10 bases of rifles; once the whole force is done I may go back and a few tufts to give the ground some height.

Panzerbrigade - Panther A/G

With both Blood Guts & Glory and Devils Charge released and Nuts out soon, it once again provoked my thoughts of joining the Ardennes offensive and making a dash through the Belgian forrests. Binx has most of his Amercian armoured rifles painted so I will soon have an opponent for a series of linked or narrative games in the next few weeks. Hopefully I will be able to put up a couple of battle reports when the time comes

Blast from the Past

There's been a bit of a lull in posts over the past few weeks, so I thought it about time something new greeted our avid gamers and followers.

And here it is... Blood of the Zombies...the new Fighting Fantasy novel from Ian Livingstone.

Its hard to believe that its been 30 years since this series began, and I'm sure most, if not all of the Lone Wolves have had a go at one of these books in the past. Maybe not Elliot as he wasn't born when they first appeared on our bookshelves, mind you I would have only been two, so must have read the reprints!

Anyway, Blood of the Zombies, has just come out to celebrate these 30 years and it has just flopped through my letterbox (fnah fnah!) and looks like it will be a load of fun to fight through.
In the olden days I would just read through and pretend I'd beaten each boss, but im determined to play this one properly, so pencil, rubber and dice at the ready; wish me luck.

I'll report back when and if I survive the apocalypse...
