I think that that's the first such instance that I've done that  :-\ Also, the first time I've thought about an item that I'd like to see sculpted in the Pendraken range. Though I did mention the lack of Japanese armoured cars (in person) last year when I ventured to the Land of Smog. Sorry, Middlesbrough. I'm sure I heard a mention that others had enquired about Japanese trucks, too.



Two theatres really appeal to me:

Eastern Europe 42/43
and
Burma 42/44

So Japanese trucks / Armoured cars are on my shopping list. ;)
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

I can't stop buying books and anything related to the periods I'm interested in. I may need help with my addiction.   :o

Take care

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Decent scotch. None of that blended $h1t

All scotch including single malt is blended, a single-malt scotch whisky is the product of a single distillery. Not the product of a single batch or a single barrel, but a single distillery. A single-malt Lagavulin may contain whiskies from many barrels produced at the Lagavulin distillery, but it will contain only whiskies produced at Lagavulin.

Lagavulin is the best in my opinion  :D

Unless it is sold as single barrel, costing in the hundreds of pounds!

The last time I drunk Scotch was in 1977. I was with the Sealed Knot in a hotel just outside Stirling and they had a complete shelf of the damned stuff.
'You start one end and I'll start at the other and we'll meet somewhere in the middle.' my (ex) mate said.
After a while I got to the stage of -Middle, hah! I couldn't even find my own hands, never mind the bl**dy middle of a rack of Scotch.
Four o'clock in the morning I woke up and was walking through the hotel trying to find my way out when I heard a scream from behind me and the sound of rapidly receding footsteps. I then realised that I had been mistaken for a 17th Century ghost by one of the customers.

I heard later the same day that the SK had been politely asked not to go back. Banging hangover and haven't touched the stuff since.

Anyway, back on topic.

I've thought of something else that I have a surfeit of... Mongols. But you know how it is, just one more unit. Oh, they are nice, I'll just get... Slippery slope and at the moment I'm on an uncontrollable downhill slide.

Ardbeg. If you can't get Ardbeg, Kilchoman.

Whisky is Beelzebub's urine :-&

Rum for me, darker the better ;)

I was a barman, dark rum is where you hide the dregs of all the other bottles. :)

Hello Roy

No, don't resist! I want more people playing it, so that hopefully the Imperial Japanese forces will be expanded!

Imagine what some of these would look like on your tabletop ... Banzai!






If you can't wait, these are available through Fairy Kikaku:-




Available through Hobby Link Japan, http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljlist?GenreCode2=all&Word=fairy+kikaku&x=0&y=0

Reasonably easy to do business with, and the Fairy Kikaku range covers a lot of 'funny' vehicles unlikely to get done by Pendraken. (Plus you can get a Carden Loyd Mk VI in one pack :D)

Well, cover yourself in cheap scent and hang out at the officers' club. You may get lucky.
