Cleaning figures this morning. It is Rose’s last day of school for the year and she has an early dismissal at 11. That only leaves me a couple of hours to get something done. Figured I would catch up on prep work.

Played a Big Chain of Command game last night. Normandy 1944 with two German panzergrenadier platoons defending against three US platoons: and armored rifle platoon, a rifle platoon, and a recon platoon of armored cars and an M10 tank destroyer.

The US had to take the cross roads and hill 238 which covered the road leading to it. Initially the US came out strong with multiple phases getting almost everything out and chewing up on the the panzergenadier platoons.

Things turned though as the German armor and AT gun seat with the US armor and the US armored rifle platoon got chewed up trying to take the crossroads.

We called the game at 11. The US had reached the crossroads but would have been shot off of it in the three phases left in the game.

A great game and lots of fun. Ran pretty smooth despite having one new player and two who have only played one other game.

The second 12 mounted Apaches. First 12 are done except for warpaint.

When these are done I’ll do the warpaint so I can vary the colors up better.

More Apache! These are reinforcements for Plains War Project 1.

There’s a second Plains War Project that I’ll start after Historicon. The second one basically reproduces the first.

There was interest at the club in trying some WW2 games so Jake and each ran a game. Both were set in Normandy in 1944.

Histories table was a Bolt Action game so Luke could learn the rules and take his figures out for a spin he was painting.

My table was a Chain of Command table with me teaching Mark, Brad, and Jasper.

I didn’t get as many pictures as I wanted to as I was busy teaching while playing.

Both tables resulted in American victories with the Germans getting torn up. The gages went over great and it looks like we will play WW2 again the next few weeks.

Workbench shot for today. Working on some Silver Bayonet type figures- 3D prints. Cool and fun figures.

In the background is the last of MY Napoleonic French of the fourth company. Once these are done I think I’ll have a full battalion except for a few more voltigers I’ll have to finish up. It’ll be nice to clear that project out; the army has only languished here for about 15 years and I have a huge backlog of other personal projects to get to!

It’s also a beautiful day with low humidity so I’m clear coating trays of figures to get them ready for basing.

French and Indian War game at the club tonight. Running a 6 player Sharp Practice game. The board is pretty close to the local terrain here, only a few miles from Fort Ligonier and George Washington’s Friendly Fire incident.

Celts and Kroxigors this morning.

My one customer likes some of his ancients with a pale skin so I’m trying something different with this batch.

The Kroxigors have really taken me outside my comfort zone as I work on using the Speedpaints more with them. It’s certainly frustrating as different colors behave differently. I got really comfortable with how consistent the AK 3rd Gen is across the whole range.
