PBI Battle Reports / Photos

Some great WW2 photos - battle reports are a bit sketchy, as PBI is often so fast paced, and also I didn't want to spoil the photos as some are really quite nice!

Late Republican Romans in action in my Warfare Match Reports - now all posted, with lots of pretty good quality pics too.

Camelot Games figures now in the Photo Directory

I've added some photos of figures from Camelot Games to the 15mm photo directory. I'm not entirely sure if they are still selling them as they have a brand new website which goes beyond my limited ability to translate Italian via Google, but they are nice figures. Fighting 15s sell them in the UK. The pics are also a good illustration of the transformative power of Windsor & Newton Peat Brown Ink on a basic paint job!

Off to Portbury Knights tomorrow for another Peter Pig's PBI WW2 competition.

Comedy Russians will be in action complete with the bonkers T35 !!

Tillamook Air Museum

Another trawl through the photo archive throws up this odd collection of aircraft... and in a place named after cheese as well ! Tillamook is also allegedly the worlds largest wooden building.

RAF Museum Hendon

Just found some pics from the RAF Museum in Hendon, so I've added them to the directory. It's a great museum, these photos are only a fraction of what's there - and it's free too.

28mm Plastic Frenzy !!

Doh! I've finally succumbed and bought some 28mm Plastics. I've been fighting the urge for a while, but they are now so cheap (30p a figure??) and there are enough ranges to allow you to morph them into different armies (Auxilia + Vikings = Sub Roman Brits anyone?). Have a look here at what's for sale on eBay UK or look here for US listings. The Warlord Games ECW stuff is available to see here 

Do You Breed Rabbits?

Amazon seem to think rabbit-keeping and ancient wargaming are closely related.... have your say here.

Warfare Half Way Point

1 outright victory on the last roll of a Roman civil war, on losing draw to some resilient Gauls.
