Woah! Been a while.

Just checked out my blog and realised I haven't posted for a while. I've been in Wales for 5 days which was a nice break away with the family even with the 12hrs of games and rain (Hey welcome to Wales). Obviously  I went to Porthmadog Models but being low on funds only a small purchase was made. The Rorkes Drift centre display had got bigger unfortunately I didn't get any pictures as my sons and their cousins also came in the shop so I had to give a very limited history lesson about Rorkes Drift.  I had my eye an Amera plastic castle type building but spotted some 15mm looking houses  These I thought would be useful for Tanks Modern Age.

Seem to scale up OK next to some 15mm tanks 

I thought these might be good all added to one terrain piece. Maybe a small hamlet. I've even started planning it along with some roads.

Just three houses with a small road junction but as one piece. The houses are Amera Plastic and as usual great quality. I'll keep you posted on these

On the models front been a bit quiet as I've not really had the time  My fellow blogger and best friend has recently got into Street Wars NYC. In his blog post (Check out his blog here) about the game he dropped a hint about where a gang would go. This I missed only to get a message offering me a gang from this new game

These look really cool and I'm looking forward to trying the rules out after I've painted the models.

And last of all I've been playing blood bowl on the PS4 in a Dads league and on my own with a few different  teams. I was thinking of doing a blog to track one teams progress (not my current team in the Dad league as they are terrible !!!)  I might pick my human team and start a new tournament if this is something people will like.

Birthday Treats!

Last Tuesday it was my birthday or as I'm getting on a bit I prefer level up (can't take the gamer out of me). My beautiful wife had bought me the star wars rebellion board game. Where you play the struggle for the galaxy one team rebels other the empire.  You build fleets and even death stars! to take over the galaxy. Once the post man brings it I'll post some pics. I also reciced the bolt action rule book so a while new game to learn! With some birthday money I've ordered a British para section and para command squad to start me off. Also with some money I bought a 14pdr field gun for my Dystopian legions forces. Though worryingly stock levels seem to be really low and prices are rising. Amazon starter sets that were £30 are going for £80 - £90 + now so is this a sign of legions being discontinued?? To bolster our forces my friend and I have agreed when playing each other to use some ranges from Warlords black powder range.  The British soldiers from the Anglo Zulu was range for ok  (the size will be a little off) my friend is trying to track down some Prussian soldiers.
Last but certainly not least my awesome friends who run a Kawaii  blog bought me an E wing for my rebel x wing fleet!!!

Can't wait to in pack this and add it to the fleet!
So now I'm eagerly awaiting the postman bringing me loads of parcels  😃
