Northern Dust: What a terrible night (in a fun way!)
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/what-terrible-night-in-fun-way.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Måndag 13 januari 2014. What a terrible night (in a fun way! AARs are coming soon so all of you can see my horrible defense of the house in scenario 5. This was the second time we played Dust Tactics and we only missed one rule once this time (entry). Next time we will be perfect! Then we shouldn't have any problems with any rules.

Northern Dust: My first house!
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/my-first-house.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Måndag 27 januari 2014. I have to confess, I don't like doing terrain. I'm very bad at it. I have tried a few times and always gave up pretty soon. So this is actually the first time I finish anything terrain related. The house is the one that are included in Operation Cerberus. It can also be bought separately. The difference between them is that the Cerberus house is three stories high, while the separate two. 27 januari 2014 15:45. I think it turned out well. Some ph...

Northern Dust: januari 2014
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Onsdag 29 januari 2014. After I used the Sturmaffe in the last battles I discovered that they were very brittle. They are hitting their opponents very hard, but they will have problem surviving a round or two after contact with enemy. So what to do? Give them a Hero to lead them into battle of course! The only ape hero is Markus. A very good and smart one. Is he worth his cost? What about the miniature? Final verdict: Must buy for all ape lovers out there! The house is ...

Northern Dust: Forward, Men! Victory Bridge scenario 3
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/forward-men-victory-bridge-scenario-3_15.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Onsdag 15 januari 2014. Victory Bridge scenario 3. This scenario was a catastrophe for me. I knew as soon I read the scenario description that it would be hard. I was supposed to charge over a bridge with my Germans. They are tough, but can't shoot longer than 4 squares. The SSU on the other hand could shoot 6 squares. Tomas started by positioning a tesla cannon i hard cover at the end of the bridge. Then he did also position a walker there. And some more troops. Looks ...

Northern Dust: First unit: Sturmpionieren
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/first-unit-sturmpionieren.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Tisdag 7 januari 2014. The first unit I painted was the Sturmpionieren. I have never been good at painting snow so instead I decided to give them camouflage cloths. After looking around what they used for camouflage pattern I choosed Leibermuster. Much because it was the last one they introduced, and it looked easy enough to paint. :-). Maybe not perfect, but I'm happy enough with the result. Except for the bases. Did you like/dislike the miniatures? 8 januari 2014 13:53.

Northern Dust: Sturmaffe!
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/sturmaffe.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Fredag 17 januari 2014. I bought the new Axis apes, Sturmaffe. I needed some good close combat troops that could kill SSU trash cans so I bought these and a few Zombies. These are much better casted than the figures that I got with the starter box, which had a lot of mold lines. So who are best? Axis Zombies or Sturmaffe? So how do you read it? Blue line is for Close Combat and Red for range 1-2 from each other. I will use the statistics for comparing units to each othe...

Northern Dust: Desert bases
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/desert-bases.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Söndag 19 januari 2014. I bought GW's new paint Agrellan Earth, it is for painting bases. I was extremely impressed by the result; it was as good as they said it would be. I re-based some cowboys for a friend. I did it like this:. 1) First I painted the base with dark brown and Stirland Mud. 2) Then I painted on a thick layer of Agrellan Earth. 3) After it had dried for an hour or two I glued on one (1) turf of grass and a few small rocks. Very easy and fast. By Grant "...

Northern Dust: First try - Recon in Force
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/first-try-recon-in-force.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Söndag 5 januari 2014. First try - Recon in Force. Our first game was Recon in Force - the first scenario from Victory Bridge. I played Germans while Tomas played the SSU. We didn't really follow the rules for the size of forces; instead we took approximately 75 points each. I got one small walker and two infantry squads and Tomas one big walker and one infantry squad. During the first round we just advanced forward. Instead of getting destroyed Hans shoot and hit!

Northern Dust: Starting with Dust Tactics
http://northerndust.blogspot.com/2014/01/starting-with-dust-tactics.html
Playing Dust Tactics in Stockholm. Söndag 5 januari 2014. Starting with Dust Tactics. Two weeks ago Tomas, a gaming buddy of my, called me. We hadn't talked for a while so we talked about games and important stuff like that. He had bought Dust and thought it was a nice game. I had been looking at it and thought why not give it a try? He had started collection SSU so I choose the Germans. So he gave me Tina and Hyena and der Panzerprinz so I could start somewhere. What more could you ask for? Some photos ...
