France 1940: BEF and Wehrmacht Lock Horns!

[Gazza]

I've been writing some home-brew rules for this period and have been play-testing them quite heavily over the last month. I took some quick snaps of several of these games and thought I'd share them here. Obviously both my scenery and miniatures are incomplete; a shortcoming I am working hard to correct! Buildings are 6mm and the fields are made from 6mm astro-turf. More waffle about this and my rules on the blog.

Looking good, Gazza !

Cheers - Phil.

Very nice.  With luck that'll be me someday.

Looks very nice. 

I'm interested in making flexible roads.  Is the mastic you mention something that would be used as a duct sealant?

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Good ideas

[PB]

Great stuff, will watch with interest

Thanks for the kind words, chaps.

Yes, I believe it's also called caulk. You want the acrylic variety as the silicone doesn't take paint. There are countless online guides. Here are a couple that I shall be referring to:

Thanks!

As I've started thinking about making terrain, it's become clear that the building trades in the US and UK use totally different languages.

What is finished is looking very good

I like the criteria you set before writing the rules and am glad to hear you have managed to stick to them

Looking good

Take care

Good discipline to get your rules into 4 pages. That looks a very inviting gaming space.
