With the Easter holiday fast approaching, does anyone have plans for some games over this period?
As for me I hope to get at least one solo game in as the weather is still too cold to get out into the garden. Initial thoughts are for a BKC game based around either the AVBCW milieu or Operation Sealion but with a big 'what if?' involving Italians and Germans. The other option is for some Dux Bellorum games if time allows.
A 15mm Vietnam game and a 10mm 1870 Campaign game are arranged, might sneak another game in vs a mate up the hill to! :D
That will be more gaming than the last 4 months together tbh, bit of a shock for a weekly gamer! :D
Finishing my Neo Iskandrians for Urban War and starting a new Syntha Army for same. Some more painting for sure.
Gaming: Lets see but most likely a sebigboss vs sebigboss scenario.....
The Khedival Egyptian artillery blasted a British army to pieces in my last game. I need to work out how to beat them, preferably without losing everything on the way in.
Hmmm, a night march, perhaps?
Working most of Easter :( but in between work I'm hoping to get some gaming in during the break although not sure what.
No gamming plans, but I do plan to spend time painting my ACW dismounted Cavalry.

No gaming either, but plans to start 1812 Russian army. Already sorted into regimental size blocks, but not yet cleaned for painting. Good Friday faternoon perhaps :-\
Fingers crossed Craig (Tinyterrain) and I will be able to meet up for a game or two :). Still intend to do a solo 'what if?' scenario though.
Used all my brownie points up last weekend.
A call to muster on Saturday and a AWI game on Sunday night using a pals nicely painted 10mm stuff( guess which manufacturer).
So no games for me.
I have no plans for this easter, but i'll be having a game of "blood bowl team manager" (the card game from fantasy flight) this thursday!
So easter comes a bit sooner :P
No gaming for me either. I hope to find time to get my big lead pile of WWII stuff primed, based and ready for painting.
I'd also love everyone to clear out of the house for a few hours so I can set up the game table and run through a few concepts for some rule I'm working on.
Painting horses to a deadline >:(
No games as such.
I'll just be continuing the war against a mole. ~X( ~X( >:( >:(
Cunning little ...er...thing.

Anyone living in New Zealand will more than likely be heading off to our Nationals this year being hosted by the hutt Club in Silverstream, Wellington, as for me nah cant be bothered three National FOW titles are enough and everyone else just plays 28's bah. :P
Nope, no gaming for me either. The other half wants to "tidy the house up". This usually involves moving one mess to another room and then replacing it with a mess from somewhere else. But no-one enters my wargames room on pain of something very nasty. :d
If you have a problem mole, I believe Jasper Carrott has some interesting advice...
Good luck

Thanks Lee.
One of the local farmers DOES use that method with a fair amount of success !
And I have been told of another method, which is a)....Completely illegal, as far as animal cruelty is concerned...and b) extremely dangerous.
(My better half would kill me, if I even considered it.) ;)
Cheers - Phil.
Managed to get in a game of Dux Bellorum yesterday evening and then a fast and furious free-for-all Wings of War battle between my daughter (25) flying an Albatross DVa, my son (15) flying a Roland CII and myself flying a SPAD 13.
I was shot down by turn four :o, my daughter on turn 7 or 8 and my son ran out victorious.
Damn those bally sausage munching Hun two seaters!!
Trying out Russian Civil War in 10mm using the new version of Square Bashing. Using someone else's armies as I'm still working on my WWI stuff.
