http://waziristanonafancy.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Martes, 18 de marzo de 2014. Something very common in any Afghan landscape is the irrigation ditch. How many US soldiers have finished their jump in the middle of the muddy water? I ask myself (because there are many pictures like this one). So I wanted to have some irrigation ditches for my Afghan based games. And here they are; another fantastic work from the Wargames News and Terrain. I wanted to have it modular, to be able of deploy different configurations of ditches over the table. Marine Regiment ...

Domingo, 23 de junio de 2013. Looking for a Ruleset. Ghurkas preparing to attack with the bayonet. Next step in this project is to look for a rulebook. My idea is to play at the skirmish level, to have games typical of the "small war" into the campaing: a clash between patrols, an ambush to a convoy, a last stand. So, while I´m reading my books, I´m also thinking and comparing about rulesets. First one, "Colonial Adventures" from. The game can be played also as a campaing (. And one of them was a suggest...

Lunes, 13 de enero de 2014. Paul Hicks is moving in the Right Direction! HMS Berwick off Norway. Models and put them heads with pith helmets from Woodline Designs. Or use the new German revolutionary sailors from Tsuba Miniatures. As a band of mercenaries in the north frontier of Afghanistan. Fortunately, Paul Hicks has come to my rescue:. I have found these pictures in "The Lead Adventure Forum". The British Army, at last, from Mutton Chop Miniatures. Has spare Lewis guns for them. Link to the Forum.

Domingo, 20 de octubre de 2013. I have received in this week the last commission of terrain elements I have made to Timmy from. Wargame News and Terrain. They have been some pieces I wanted to have for my game table:. My idea is to use these elements in my games based in Afghanistan, from the Second or Third War to the present, and also, with some more vegetation, in the jungles of the Pacific or Indochina. And here they are, integrated in the table I have used today to play a game of "Chain of Command":.

http://waziristanonafancy.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-drum-is-beating-ii.html
Domingo, 6 de abril de 2014. The Drum is beating II. I have read in a forum that Empress Miniatures. Is going to base their new "Jazz Age" range in this very nice movie, "The Drum". A great idea, because it is a classic and really good film full of interesting "frontier" characters and adventure. I expect they have also plans for the Afghan regular army! Well, here is my first pack of British troops:. They are the command group from Empress´. I have painted the khaki uniform with a Coat d´arms. I agree w...
