And that's @hicksy.bsky.social Kampfgruppe Arnhem platoon finished up ready for Chain of Command². HMG and AT supports yet to finish, and a spare squad as well. And some spare LMGs to turn this platoon into panzergrens as needed. So not quite done, but a fightable force.

Man with gun. Rest of the crew need finishing up but wanted to get this guy finished and put in place over lunchtime. Amazing what time pressure can do.

#spreadthelard

Airborne 17pdr painted and based. Crew next, one of whom will be stuck on his wee chair and there shall remain evermore.

I have just put up a blog post on sourcing, printing and painting my 1940 BEF Bren Carrier section for your wargaming pleasure 😀

#wargaming #spreadthelard #20mm

A couple of shots from the Lard event at the Hartenstein Museum in Arnhem last weekend. #spreadthelard

Question for the wise nerdlings and Lard aficionados: how many cavalry units do you own/use in Sharp Practice?

I'm planning a purchase, and I'm trying to decide if I need 8 dragoons or 16.

#spreadthelard

20ish ft of rds (take 2), about £12 on materials. #frugalwargaming #spreadthelard

On the work bench, some boatmen for a Second Barons’ War game ready to help Simon de Montfort cross the Medway! #miniatures #wargaming #spreadthelard #nerdlings #baronswar

Day 78 of No Shame Painting

Productive day with carriers weathered and m/c section uniforms base coated.

All 3D prints are produced at a scale somewhere between “too small” and “good God, where will I store that?”

#wargaming #spreadthelard #20mm #hobbystreak

So close to completion. Need to varnish and rim the bases as needed. Then might touch up a few minor highlights. But otherwise, the KGA platoon, plus some infantry based supports, is done. AT guns and a HMG next on the list.

Day 77 of No Shame Painting

Other tracks weathered on each carrier and faces painted and first washes on the motorcycle section.

All 3D prints are produced in 20mm. Any resemblance to 1/72 is entirely the fault of history.

Today, I have been mostly making teeny tiny Jump Off Points for my 15mm games.
They're only 20mm across, so a bit more room for deployment if like me, you measure from the centre of the JOP 👍

Slowly getting the colours down on my WW2 Indian army 2 Pdr AT gun. All part of my ongoing Burma early war kick. #CoC #spreadthelard #wargaming #15mm

Hope to catch you there! We’re at table DG13, straight through the entrance and over on the right. Look for the Hastings 960 and Midgard banners.
If you can’t make it, we’ll be taking plenty of photos.

I’ve just added a page to the Mogsymakes site with all the details and including the Midgard Force lists for the game: mogsymakes.net/hastings-960...

#miniatures #wargaming #midgardheroicbattles #spreadthelard #nerdlings #1066

While we’ll be running a game of Midgard Heroic Battles, I haven’t painted a single figure. The game is the work of the Hastings 960 project, portraying England’s most famous battle with 16,000 minis from Peter’s Paperboys .

Next Sunday, 11th October is The Other Partizan show run by Partizan Wargaming and History in Newark, UK and it’s a bit of a different one for myself and the Morris & Chums crew.

Pics from day 2 at #MOAB playing Chain of Command (my first proper game after 1 play test). The only downside was not enough time to check out the other games! A great day & I loved it as a team game with extra command considerations. Awesome work by the organisers #tabletopwargaming #spreadthelard

And table 2 is taking shape. What on earth could be about to go off at Hill's Borough Mine? #spreadthelard
