Experimenting with 15mm Bolt Action.

I was wanting to try Bolt Action in 15mm. Getting kinda bored with the FOW rules and the firepower cheks.So we finally got a round to trying out BA,Overall i like the rules.but here is few things that we thought of or did for house rules.


  But the players want to up the points akinda loosely base them of of the force org from flames of war.As so that you have to purchase a platoon or a squad vs. a Single gun and or vehicles.
  Now after playing a few games im still reaching for a arty template.
 The last one is the dice cup thing is different,
   the other players did not care for this so we changed it a bit. Roll intiative
  winner goes first picks a unit give it the order.when done withe unit.
 you pass to the other player back and forth until you run out of units.
Worked pretty well it reminded me of when i played titan Legions and Epic space marine.
  as for models i am using 2 old Devils brigade company sets. I am using them as Anzio Rangers.
  As for the i am using a mix and match of Germans for Infantry,mostly Open fire Plastic Germans.
After playing this make want to  Pick up a Box of the new PSC Fallscrimjager and some MArders.
  WEll thats it for now Tanks,.... for the read.

75mm Old Skewl Bf goodness

Since i have been building a croossover American force that i may use for the 10th mountain and my 25th Glider rifles.I needed to update some of my Liteguns for them, So i was trolling ebay and found some kewl op usa arty crews Perfect for what i was needing. So i set about getting everything put together. So here is my progress so far.
  Also my models have been a tad neglected here lately Since are group has been playing a boat load of Compnay of heros online.We are so bad that we use a mod and have coined are flames of war style battles since we can build companies up.  So here is the piks of the guns and also i think i am finally finished with my MG Brits and soon to be finished withmy ITalian FJS.I wll be posting piks of each here in the future plus the American Airborne of a friends that i have coined the great rebasing project.

15mm Crashed train objective.

Been awhile since i posted any work ,i got burned out on painting minis for awhile. i have been working on terrain mostly.
  But i did pick this Crashed terrain objective here awhile back and it help give me motivation to pick up my paint brush again.Link  http://www.tabletop-art.de/Derailed-train-15mm
  i just have been to distracted by Company of heros 2 and Men of war assault 2.
I got this piece from ebay.Pretty rare here in the States but probably not for the Eu folks.
Overall i am pretty happy with it,even though i have a suspicion that it maybe a recast.
 Currently i am about half way thru with finishing it. i need to detail and shade it.

Guards Armor and Lorried Infantry update,

 Think i am finally done with my Brits minus adding few more models, i am thinking of adding another motor rifle platoon,4 more Sextons and some more armored cars.but i think for now until i find a deal on the models they are finished.
 So here is what i got to use for my Market Garden British.I usually run the list as a guards unit.
 I can build two mabe three companies,but it is mainly Lorried rifles and Armor. I really like to run theese as a combined Arms regiment or company.So they are usually paired as a armor and Lorried platoons.But overall i am glad that i went ahead and built this force. It really helped me out scoring a OP retangular based Ifantry company and the craptacular Open fire Shermans especially on the fireflies as i run 2 per squad with me having 3 squads for the company.
  One other thing to it also works well allied or against my other forces in my collection.Usa Glider rifles, PAras and My German FJs .

Woodland scenics review and build.








My wife got me this set for xmas this year.She had seen me eyeballing it for awhile now at are local hobby lobby. But i was always sceptical about it.because of the foliage looked like it would seperate very easily.But i used a combo of superglue,the watered down white skool glue and the alot of cheap hairspray(my go to also for a cheap sealent).Over all i was quite pleased i think that i will be buying a few more of theese setup,Also one of the kewl things that i did was trim them up and made some hedgerows too.Here is few piks of them in the building stages.
