Title: Q of the Week: If money was no object...?
Post by: Leon on 14 July 2010, 02:03:22 AM
If money was no object, what wargaming fantasy would you fulfill?  Would you do Waterloo in 1:1?  Or a mass of Hoplites for Marathon?  Or even buy one of every code in the Pendraken catalogue, just for the hell of it?!

;D

If money was no object why not just buy Pendraken Miniatures lock stock and barrel?

Hire the men (women, boys...) and refight the actual batles on 1:1 scale with real pikes and muskets. Mikata ga Hara, Chaldiran, Vienna, Pavia, Marston Moor, Otoombo....

Star Wars figures.  10mm for massed battles / 28mm for skirmishing.

I'm guessing you'd need bottomless pockets to buy the licensing rights...

I would keep Armstrong Miniatures going scuplting the masters for the 2000+ unmade 6mm AFV/guns that we need  :D
And get the complete war of 1812 range of figures needed made in 15mm. And all the Ottoman Turk 15mm Napoleonic figures that are missing!

Then buy a bigger house to put all the books in that I'd buy......

Well- wargames room obviously.

Because I'd be playing rules at 28mm sace, with 10mm figures

EG

Black Powder, instead of cm , I'd use inches.  The rules state 2 x 2 28mm on 40 mm, 3 x 2 on 45 mm Frontage.  Use 10mm instead

Which would still be cheaper than doing it in 28mm  ;D

Can I just buy an additional 10 hours a day or so? Not like I don't have a pile of lead already ;)
