Hey, at least they're currently top of the pile of things I might want to work on. (Doubt they'll be there next week)

2004? If only!

I have figures I intend to paint SOONTM that I bought in the 1970's!

You have plenty of time yet.



SOONTM - a period up to, but not including, the next Ice Age

Can't figure out the logic...but aren't we technically still in an ice age ? :-\

I believe we are, as there is still permanent ice at the poles.

Not wanting to start any sort of climate debate here, but the Earth has been far, far warmer in the past than it is now.

Watched a program narrated by David Attenborough on climate change, and its only for the last 10,000-20,000 years that we have had such a stable climate. Before that it cycled +/-  7-8 degrees every few thousand years.  So perhaps our current climate is the exception rather than the rule.

It's more significant now because we mostly grow our own food.

That doesn't mean there won't be a next one! :)

And yes, as I understand it, any period where there is ice at the poles is technically an Ice Age.

And, they're gone, back into the shoebox of Things To Do.

Replaced by the Sellswords & Spellslingers rulebook, and some Mordheim-style ruined buildings in 10mm. And a shopping list of things required to do (small-scale) US vs. Germany, circa 1945.

My main 10mm project for 2022 will be the AWI, have ordered the first figures to get the ball rolling, and sorted my wish list with the next lot. :)

My main project for 2022 will be to end each day alive and solvent! :D
