Weekend Plans

As I have been a bit of a rubbish hobbyist over the last n weeks the time has come to firmly make a plan for the weekend and endevour to stick to it.

I want to work out my progression for the forthcoming journeyman league – at least the first jump to 15pts – as the Searforge starter list is only 8 points so I will have more to add for the first stage than most. The choice between another heavy and a unit is going to be a tough one so I need to give it some thought.

Painting wise I think I will work on my Nomads. I love Infinity and playing on a cool table with painted minis makes so much difference. I am thinking of trying to knock up a jungle board to go with my Acontecimento starter set as well. If I go ahead with the board then that shought make for a nice series of blog articles and you won’t just have to read by bleating on.

The other option for painting is some Warmachine stuff for my Mercs. I think I have mentioned that I am choosing Searforge for the league as a way of reaching Unbound level games so If I can get my other stuff painted before the league starts I will be in a stronger position for Unbound once the league is over.

Final though is the number of armies I have and whether to sell some. I currently am thinking of selling my ALEPH force for Infinity and a Panzerkompanie for Flames of War to limit myself to one army per game. Its tricky though as my ALEPH is the first fully painted force I have – never been good at completing a project.

Have a good weekend folks and hopefully I will have some stuff to post on Monday.

One more sleep till I travel to the Calvados region of France. As a player of 6th Airborne in Flames of War I have quite an interest in this area.

I have been before but plan return visits to the Pegasus Museum, Cafe Gondree and Merville Battery and am hoping this time around to make it up to Carentan to see the other areas of Allied Airborne interest.

In keeping with this I decided to add some old pics of my Flames of War stuff. Today is the contents of the Parachute Company box set based as an Airlanding Company – I prefer the antics of the Glider Boys.

Next weeks posts will be the remainder of my painted stuff and maybe a few photos from demo games.

Until I return – happy gaming.
