Recently I have found a fan made version of a fantasy version for the One Hour Wargames by Neil Thomas. On the blog of Maudlin Jack Tar, Projects & Procastination. He had published a version for fantasy play. https://pampersandp.blogspot.com/p/one-hour-wargame-gridded-board-fantasy.html?m=0 His goal was to recreate some Lord of the Rings style wargaming. I really like his…

Long time no see
The last post was in March and then it happend. For my birthday in April, I received unexpectedly a 3D printer. A very cool tool, which I already made good use of. But for the printing a lot of preparation is needed, so the time behind the computer was not spent on maintaining the blog….
New lands aquired
The terrain mat has been finished. After the second layer, I have drybrushed all the details with a light fleshy color. Then put some variation with a dark brown wash. But used it more like a filter. Creating a very patchy color. Next step was the flocking. A mix different short grasses and some turf…
Projects and dreams II
More than a year ago, I presented some plans and ideas. Time to present an update. Some projects have lost interest, miniatures have been aquired and games have been played. I hope that this overview will provide some renewed motivation to finish more projects. New rules Sword and Spear Frostgrave Burrows and Badgers (Bolt Action)…
A new year
The new year is already a week old. My start was a little different than planned, and just started with some fiver. But all is running normally again. Last year I started this blog, to motivate myself to continue working on the different projects. I managed only 32 post. I had hoped to post a…
To Infinity and beyond
On Crisis 2019 I obtained a box of Corvus Belli Infinity Operation Icestorm. Or actually half the box, the Pan Oceania is missing, but the terrain is still in. (It was second hand, so price was also appropriate.) Also included was a starter set for Infinity Nomads, totaling in 13 Nomad miniatures. I probably will…
Crisis 2019 Antwerp
Last Saturday together with my father we went to Antwerp, attending Crisis 2019. This event is organized by The Tin Soldiers of Antwerp. For me it was the first wargame show ever attended. And it was a nice experience. We did arrive early, with quite a lot of people already in the queue at 9:30u,…
Holiday battlefield tours
Last couple of weeks have been holidays for me. We had decided to visit Ypres and Normandy. Both places I have been before and new some camping sites. Off course when visiting Ypres you cannot ignore the battlefield and memorial at the Menin gate. We did only visit one museum as we only had a…
New desk
– “If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, we can’t help wondering what an empty desk indicates.” – Unkown One of the first priorities I had at the start of this blog, was the development of my desk. I used to work on an old garden table. But wanted to have…
Tempting ironclads
Lately I have been following Jims blog as he is doing some ironclad fleets. His ships look very nice, and are tempting me to start a new project. He documented the painting process quite well. I have even checked the rules “Broadside and Ram” on what would be needed. I know I should stick to…
