For reasons that will be come apparent later this month, I have not been able to make any blog entries until today. This does not mean that I have given up blogging ... far from it! ... due to technical reasons it has just been difficult to get Internet access.
I have managed to do some work on WHEN EMPIRES CLASH!, and the rules for using aircraft are nearing completion; they just need a bit of tidying up.
I have also been giving my 'Nostalgia' project some thought, and it is probably going to be set in the late 1930s/early 1940s and have a vaguely Scandinavian/Eastern European feel. There will be opportunities for me to use all sorts of different tanks and vehicles, and the uniforms are quite easy to paint.

Welcome back Bob - I wondered if you had gone off on the Baltic expedition! Good idea re the Nostalgia project - as you rightly say, a gret chance to use all manner of exotic kit.

Bob, I have a couple of partially assembled Renault FT17s you can have if you need them. They are the Armourfast kits with the 37mm gun. I know they were used in the SCW so you could squeeze them in to a rear echelon unit of some kind or another.
ReplyDeleteOgrefencer,
ReplyDeleteYou are quite right; the Baltic has been partially responsible for my current thinking about the 'Nostalgia' project.
As for the Renault FT17s ... I would love to have them. They will certainly do for front-line equipment for a smaller nation or second-line equipment for a larger one.
I will get in contact soon about collecting them ... probably when I am able to bring over the Minifig ships.
All the best,
Bob
