Today I stumbled across something obvious #-o
Next year, 2022, is the 80th anniversary of 1942 :o

This leads to two thoughts:

  • can it really be 10 years since I ordered my 1/3,000th scale WWII ships
  • the 80th anniversary of the the two campaigns I mainly bought these ships for is rapidly approaching

Over the next few months I'll work on:

  • getting ready to play Defending the Malay Barrier, The ABDA Campaign by Old Dominion GameWorks (using GQ I/II)
  • finalising my scenario for Balikpapan, the fifth and last of my historic scenarios for the Dutch East Indies Campaign
  • developing 7 historic scenarios for the Guadalcanal campaign

I was delivering a coaching techniques session this week. The issue I used as an exercise was "what wargames project should I do next?"

Had a very enthusiastic and innovative coach. We discussed my hermit tendencies and touched upon my end of life preparations.

The answer I was looking for was "Imperial Romans" or "Napoleonic Russians".

2022 sees the 40th anniversary of buying some of my unpainted 1/72 plastics.  Maybe they should get priority now.

Well done captain, slightly dehydrated from my mates 25th Wedding Anniversary parties this weekend. Can I just have a saline drip instead??

I have some Heroics & Ros micro armour in a similar way, albeit in a basic coat of Humbrol enamel green.

Congratulations Captain =D>

Made a start on pulling together the SDS (Ship Damage Summaries) for the Japanese for Defending the Malay Barrier, The ABDA Campaign
I've got almost all the cruisers and larger vessels, there's a few where I'll have to use sister ships :)
Next will be working through the destroyers, definitely some using sister ships will be required :!!
