Two new games
Got some games in using new rules (to us anyway )
First off got 2 games of Jugula ,I have been looking at this since it first came out and a recent sale at Gripping Beast tipped me over so the rules and 2 card decks then a few (toomany ) figures from the Crusader range at North star and off we went . A fun game that is really tactical needing you to make full use of the cards and picking the right time to play them .
You get a paper playing area in the rule book and counters etc can be printed off from the website , you only need 4 figures per side or may 6 if you play the campaign the rules are easy to pick up and everything is on the quick play sheet .
Next up was a"board Game" John picked up Escapre from Stalingrad Z again another fun game most of the fun came when we discovered my chosed charactors specialist weapon was a spade ? . lots of fun and we played 3 games in around an hour .

HellBoy
Got agame of HellBoy the Board Game in at trhe weekend played the Gathering Forces scenario from the Wild Hunt expansion using agants Enhanced Hellboy and Liz Sherman with Alice Monaghan as aback up Agent .
It is quite a short scenario using new rules covering the sceanrio taking place outside rather than in the usual rooms or tunnels , poor Liz got taken out pretty quickly but Hellboy managed to pluck a narrow victory
Really enjoyed it and had alook at how many figures I have left to paint only 42 to go but at least one is a big model

IDF
Finished my IDF in 15mm for Cold War Commander , a mix of battlefront and Butlers kit , a lot of the Decals that came with the Battlefront kits were rubbish and broke up so a lot were replaced with Decals from Butlers alot better to use .

Hellboy
I didnt get any games in over the past 2 weeks but got loads of Painting done including some from the HellBoy Board game Expansion Big Box of Doom which were the Nimue and the Nimue in Dragon form and I also did the original Nimue the Blood Queen figure as well .
Staying with the hellboy Theme my mate John bought me a 75mm Kroenen figure from the first Ron Pearlman Film , a lovely figure so I bought a 75mm Hellboy to keep him company .

More for Northern Ireland
After completing the required figures I moved on to vehicles and was looking for scenery .
The vehicles I got a Humber Pig and a Saracen from Battlefield 3D both are superb ,no clean up or sanding was needed I also bough a Hotspur Land Rover from Butlers Printed models again nice but lots of sanding needed and the lines can still be seen .The crimes toppers decals came from Butlers and these are superb , I also bought a lot of decals for my 15mm IDF as the decals supplied with the battlefront models were awful .
As for scenery I looked at Warbases new Table ready Scenery and orderd a single terraced house and acouple of fields and I cannot poraise these enough ,the building comes ready painted and was ultra easy to put together ,probably the easiest MDF kit I have built , it comes so you can easily detach the roof and upper floors to place figures inside and my 1st Corp figures match up nicely with the vehicles and buildings.
