Thank you to my Secret Santa!

Hi everyone,

I hope everyone had a good Christmas. I opened my Secret Santa gift yesterday and I was very happy to see the great gift I received. There was also a card! Which is a nice extra bonus!

So now I have more 6mm Baccus Dark Age miniatures to paint up. These little guys are going to be part of my Late Frankish army that I will now start working on!

I received one package of Norman Knights Charging, one package of Norman Light Horse, and finally a pack of Command figures. All in all it is a great gift!

Again Thank You!

I also did some painting the other day. I finished up my Anglo-Saxon Army by painting these two command stands. One is with a General and the other is a sub leader classified as a Captain in the Sword and Spear rules.

Now it is time to paint up some more figures for both the Vikings and Anglo-Saxon to be able to fight the historic battle of Ashdown from the year 871.  I have a great book that has great scenarios for use in wargaming. The name of the book is "As told in the Great Hall: The Wargamer's Guide to Dark Age Britain.

Well have a good week!

Secret Santa!

My gift from my Secret Santa arrived in the mail today!

Here is a picture of the wrapped gift. It is now under the tree being guarded by the Jul Goat.

Thank you!!!

Secret Santa Wish List

Hi all,

Well as you know I am participating in a Secret Santa gift exchange for Christmas.  I have been contacted by the people running the Secret Santa and they have recommended placing a Wish List up on our blogs to help the person who draws my name out of the hat and will try to get a gift for me.

Well I have took a little time and here is a list of things, not in any particular order:

WWII GHQ 1/2400 scale ships:
German:

1. BB H-39
2. BB Tirpitz
3. CB Scharnhorst x 2

British:

1. BB King George V
2. CV Illustrius
3. BB Rodney

15mm Modern:

1. Terrorists/Taliban
2. Rioters
3. Mob People
4. Civilian Police

This is just a quick list and I encourage my Secret Santa to take a look at my blog and I am sure they will find something to fit all the different miniatures and wargames I play.

Have a good week.

Secret Santa 2015!!!

Hi everyone!

Well this is just a quick post to let you know that I have joined the Secret Santa Wargaming gift exchange that is being run by Ian over at The Blog With No Name The sign up date is coming to a close on the 1st of November so after you have checked out the rules over at TBWNN you can join in the fun.

On another note I have been sick again with a killer cold that has been kicking my ass. I have done little except get up and go to work and sleep.  It has been a while since I have painted anything and even longer since I have played a wargame. Between work and SFI (Swedish For Invaders) I have had little time for my hobbies.  I am hoping to get some more painting done this weekend.  I will probably continue painting the last few Space 1999 ships that I have so I can call that project complete! Then it is on too..... WWII Soviets, WWII Aircraft, WWII Ships, WWI Ships, Scanian War ships, F&I war cavalry, WWI 28mm Female Infantry, Modern Aircraft, 30 years war, etc... As you can see I have plenty of options but have to find time to paint.

Wish me luck

See you all soon!

Mark
