Perpetually Thwarted: July 2013
http://perpetuallythwarted.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Monday, 29 July 2013. Now these guys are a bit of an oddity. They have definitely (bar one particular area) improved significantly from 5th edition, but most of that is down to the edition change rather than the new codex. Should I just restrict this appraisal to the changes specifically brought by the new dex? I think it'd be best to address them as a whole and do quick overview on how the new edition and newer codex have dovetailed quite nicely. Usually in one charge. The Jetbike rules made it easy to ...

Perpetually Thwarted: December 2013
http://perpetuallythwarted.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, 2 December 2013. Hands Over Fists: Techmarines 1. So, how has the new edition treated my beloved Techmarines and Master of the Forge? Not great, by all accounts. They’re not unusable, don’t get me wrong, but they’re not what I wanted out of the unit. My problem is that I just keep comparing them to the guys in the old codex. No, not the 5. Edition one, the one before that. Sadly, that version has long since departed, replaced with the relatively watered-down creation we got in 5. Bolstering terra...

Gavin's Wargaming Blog. Building Armies in Miniature. Malta Campaign Game 15. June 10, 2010. On Monday I was unable to make the club to run the next installment of the Malta Campaign. Fortunately, Kit said he’d do the honours. And below is the write-up he has provided me as well as some photo’s of the action. Unfortunately they had been spotted so the forward pair of Hurricanes (Paul and Dan) have intercepted them, knowing that the rest of the Squadron has been scrambled to support them. The Italians see...

Gavin's Wargaming Blog. Building Armies in Miniature. This project started a few years ago when I bought a Baccus Polemos boxed set with British and French armies inside. We’ve since discarded the rules as unworkable, and are working on our own set which is a meld between the tempo and movement rules of Polemos, with the shooting, combat and morale system of Principles of War. American War of Independence. Lord of the Rings. I Ain’t Been Shot Mum. LOTR – War of the Ring. AWI Project almost finished.

Gavin's Wargaming Blog. Building Armies in Miniature. Operation Mitten BKC Scenario. November 19, 2011. I was reading Monty’s Iron Sides by Patrick Delaforce on holiday this year when I came across the. Description of Operation Mitten. In the book this only takes a couple of pages with no maps or real detail, but it prompted me to do a bit more digging on the internet and on TMP which gained me enough information to put together a scenario for Blitzkrieg Commander. 1 CO (CV 9 ). 2 FAO (CV 8 ). 21st Panze...

They also have a sizeable Nebelwerfer force to support from afar as well as one of the dreaded 88mm AA guns. American War of Independence. Lord of the Rings. I Ain’t Been Shot Mum.

Having had a cracking game with Goat Major and Matt on Saturday and having the house to myself for the next few weeks during the day, I decided to leave the tables up and play a Napoleonic game solo, spacing the turns out while working on the Campaign System.
