My first venture into WW2. Adapting Ospreys Black ops for an SAS raid on a German airbase in North Africa.
This project has several aspects for me. First, the game itself (painting, transporting, playing), then the technical / historical background of the submarine war in the II Worldwar and then the exploration of the fate of a fallen soldier, my […]
Burrows and Badgers is completely to blame for me learning a lot about the dark age Kingdom of Northumbria. Gripping beast having an affordable starter set for Anglo-Saxons/Anglo-Danes meant that on an impulse I now have a small set of […]
