Posting on behalf of a mate in the UK. Tunnie makes some truly outstanding terrain pieces, so drop him a line at his blog if you're interested.

"Retreat From Moscow terrain for sale. Price is £200 plus sending to destination. UK only. Depending on location I may even be able to deliver as we are always after an excuse to use the mobile home!

Sale does not include the figures, that were supplied by a wargaming friend.

There are three 600mm x 600mm square modular tiles which can be fitted together in a variety of ways.

These include a partly frozen river, a crossing point and a Russian izba. It was the subject of features in Wargames Soldiers Strategy, Issues 91 and 92.  

It includes and open ended storage box which holds the three tiles and also a pot of Woodland Scenics snow."

Further details and images here. 

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, 

and a Peaceful New Year.

I recently decided to put my 25/28mm Colonial figures up for sale, since I haven't gamed with them for years, got rather bored of the period, and can use the space they take up. 

I queried Noble Knight Games, sent them a list of my 130-odd figures, and was offered... $12 cash, $14 store credit. Total. 

What?

I declined the sale as the offer seemed ridiculously low. Yes, I expect they do want to make a profit, but seriously..?  

 They shall not grow old,

As we who are left grow old.

Age shall not weary them,

Nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun,

And in the morning,

We Will Remember Them.

After too long a time away from gaming the mojo is beginning to trickle back. I recently finished slapping pigment on the 15mm Blue Moon medieval peasants I bought two years ago for the First Barons War.

 May Santa fulfill your gaming Xmas desires.

...I'm thinking that 'The Little Drummer Boy' is an utterly stupid carol. Here's this poor young woman, barely more than a girl, who's exhausted after giving birth to the Messiah in a freakin' stable in an unfamiliar town. There are all these weird strangers hanging about the place - some of whom are glowing. She's just got the baby to sleep when this little squirt comes along and thinks "What this chick really needs right now is a drum solo..."

For some reason following an upgrade to my DOS I'm unable to post comments on other blogs. It's a bit frustrating as I've read several excellent posts and game reports. I'll continue working on a fix. Message ends.

They shall not grow old,

As we who are left grow old.

A feature on an interesting armoured train that protected my part of the world during the Great War. It could be useful for a what if scenario in the Great War, a AVBCW game, or even a Second World War game.
