25% Complete and thoughts on historical wargaming.

Well I’m 25% of the way there now!

‘Cheers from the audience’.

I painted up 5 Forgefathers, and a Scibor Space Dwarf at the weekend, which means I’ve completed a quarter of the models on the list.

And it feels pretty good I have to say.

Apologies again for lack of photos, as I explained my computer at home has broken, so I’m forced to tap this out in my lunch break with no capacity to load up photographs at the moment. Also I wanted to take proper photos and not just use my phone.

I’ve been thinking a lot about playing historical games. I have the urge to play something in a real historical setting. Partly because I’m tired of codex creep in other games, because you cant invent a new super unit that kills everything and costs £15 a unit, if  that unit didn’t actually exist at the time!

I’m thinking of a 6mm or 15mm scale game, but apart from that the time setting is really up in the air.

What  I want is a fun game, and the historical setting isn’t as important as the game play itself. I’m going to do a bit of research, and if anyone reads this and wants to let me know any games they could recommend, then that would be appreciated .

Also I will stick to my guns and do my shopping at Salute, as it will give me whole lot of options to choose from.

Hopefuly I will get you some pictures soon.
