The Last of the Mohicans - Pulp Alley

One of my favourite Movies the Daniel Day Lewis version of the classic Last of the Mohicans lends its small skirmishes to Pulp Alley rule set very well and a free down load of cards made it easy to set up for a quick solo game . Hawkeye and His father and Brother had to try and find Cora ,Alica and Major Haywood before Maqua and his warband could claim them as his pize . A really great game with a cinematic showdown between Chingachook and Maqua finally gave the goodguys a victory . Took some pictures during set up but forgot todo any during the game .

The master v The Doctor

Had agreat game of Dr Who M iniature Game , John had the Master (version 1 ) with Silurians and Sea Devils I had the 4thn Doctor with Leela ,K9 and UNit troopers , the masters forces made short work of the UNIT troops and Leela but K9 and Dr solved the clues , built the inventionand left the master out cold on his back , great fun and so easy to play .

Holiday Fun

A while ago I bought aload of plastic kits for something different to do on the summer nights we spend at the coast , anyway managed to finish 3 of them a Tamiya SAS jeep and 2 Airfix kits a Spitfire and a F35 Lightning 11

Also managed to get agame inm with John and a board game he picked up based on the Lord of the Rings , really good fun and kept us amused for acouple of hours .

Muskets & Tomahawks

Not played these for a long time but John recently started painting up some AWI figures and was looking for a rule set so dug my figures out for the FIW and played a simple (we thought ) scenario . Johns Fench had to defend a village and my Brits were to capture or kill 3 traitors that were with the French .The French claimed a narrow victory We both enjoyed the game and Johns chosen these for his AWI project . A few pictures of the game ,figures mainly the excellent Galloping major ones but a few odd ones from other ranges .

Rescue Jo Grant

Played a DWMG of the Green Death episodes the Scenario is called Rescue Jo Grant from the Carneval of Monsters supplement a great little game lots of fun with the Giant Maggots making short work of Jo Grant and the U.N.I.T troopers in the desolate welsh country side . The unit are twisted pinnecle jo grant is Black tree I think nd the maggots are from a fishing tackle shop ?

Viking Longship

A recent purchase fro Asgard Rising was this 28mm Longship , it comes in kit form the ship is in 3 parts , the mast and sails are in 5 parts then there are 14 oars and Shelds . Fitted together really well and needed very little cleaning and took primer with no issues after a good wash . Will be a nice objective or scenery piece for my viking games

Special Air Service remembrance tour day 3

Today we visited Little Dean Jail in the Forest of Dean , a rather starnge place , a victorian Police station and Jail that was used as such until the Early 1970's then as acourt until the early 80,s . It is now a museum covering a massive range of things from satanism , murders , Films and TV ,freak and why I went a great display on the S.A.S ,I must say it is afantastic place to visit there isnt an inch of the floor , ceiling and walls that doesnt have something on show . There is awarning that its not for children or people of a nervous disposition due to some of the displays for example photos and videos of ISIS beheading and murdering their opposition in many grusome ways but well worth a visit if your in the area , below are some photos of the building a few nicer displays and of course some of the SAS exhibit

Special Air Service Remembrance tour Day 2

Today we visited the Special Air Service cemertary at CreddenHill ,this is on M.O.D land opposite the main Entrance to Stirling lines the Home of the S.A.S. A beautifully kept area that only contains graves and memorials for the SAS ,thankfully very few graves are there at the moment .
