Command Horizon Army ‘Finished’

July 6th, 2010 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

Well, finished enough to get ‘properly’ onto the tabletop, in any case… Just in time for a game I have tomorrow night, the forces of the Confederate Mercenary Corps are based and ready to face their Centaur nemesis – yes, … Continue reading →

SOA Battle Day 2010 – Of Time, Space…and Practicallity

August 5th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Ancients, Impetus / Basic Impetus, Society of Ancients Comments Off

As I’ve put together the two armies for Zama, there is one thing that I can’t get away from – this battle is potentially big, really big. We are looking at 2700+ Infantry, 200+ Cavalry and 18 Elephants – Even in 6mm, this is going to look a very impressive sight. But are things getting out of [...]

SOA Battle Day 2010 – The Carthaginians

August 4th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Ancients, Impetus / Basic Impetus, Society of Ancients Comments Off

So, having dealt with the Romans, it’s time to deal with Hannibal’s army at Carthage. As with the Romans, the exact number of Hannibal’s troops at the battle is open to some speculation, but I’m pretty happy to go with the general consensus, which is 36,000 Infantry and 4,000 Cavalry – plus 80 war elephants. This [...]

SOA Battle Day 2010 – The Roman Forces

August 3rd, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Ancients, Impetus / Basic Impetus, Shows / Conventions, Society of Ancients Comments Off

So, time to think about how many figures I need for this game of Zama for next year. This may seem strange, but since I’m recently new to massed battle games (being a skirmish game junkie) I’ve never actually put an army together before based on the historical forces – it’s all a but of a [...]

SOA Battle Day 2010 – Starting early

July 27th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Ancients, Impetus / Basic Impetus, Society of Ancients Comments Off

I’ve recently recorded an interview with Richard Lockwood of the Society of Ancients (soon to be heard on the podcast feed) and as part of that we chat about the SOA Battle Day. Battle Day 2010, unusually, has already been decided upon – it will be the Battle of Zama in 202BC – the battle that [...]

Projects - 6mm Ancients

April 28th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Ancients, Projects Comments Off

Status - On Hold As you know by now, I get distracted easily… Just before I bought Uncharted Seas, back in September last year I’d started painting a 6mm Roman Army for use with the Impetus rules. I’d undercoated enough figures for 2 stands - 24 strips, which is 96 figures, and these are currently sat in [...]

Projects - Command Horizon

April 24th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Projects, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

Status - In Progress Command Horizon has sort of taken over from Uncharted Seas - primarily due to the challenge I was sent by Peter Berry to get a unit painted in three weeks. This I achieved, but it does leave me with the small matter of the rest of the army still to paint. Currently, as [...]

Baccus Painting Challenge - Finished!!!

March 6th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

Yes, though I don’t quite believe it myself, after a concerted effort last night to texture and paint the bases, I actually finished the challenge! I will put up more detailed photos of each base, and go into how everything was painted tomorrow, when I get some time to take some better pictures. However, I just wanted [...]

Baccus Tanks - bigger pictures

March 5th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

Countzero was asking for some bigger pictures of the Baccus tanks - so here they are. These are finished - though the turrets look somewhat dull, so I might give them another drybrush of yellow to brighten them back up again. To be honest, the tanks do look a little ‘muddy’ up close. I’m holding out judgement [...]

Baccus Painting Challenge - getting there

March 2nd, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

Well, just to say that I think I’m in with a fighting chance of achieving the challenge that Peter Berry set me 13 days ago. I finished the main detailing on the tanks tonight, so you can now (hopefully) see the effect I was trying to achieve with the colour scheme. Not quite finished yet - they [...]

Baccus Painting Challenge - WIP

February 25th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

Well, I thought that I’d post some work-in-progress pictures of my Light Tank Battalion. As you can see, I’ve actually started painting them! (Shock horror!) The tanks have been cleaned up, the turrets have been glued in place, and then the whole model has been undercoated using Coat d’Arms Grey Primer, a brush on primer which is [...]

Baccus Painting Challenge - final colour choice / which unit?

February 18th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

After looking through my colour palette choice, and also looking at some painting references for ACW Confederate troops, I think I have made my final colour selections. Thinking about my army background, I want the Confederate Mercenary Corps to be a rapid reaction force. Therefore, it will consist of primarily of Tank Battalions and Mechanised Infantry [...]

Baccus painting challenge - what’s in a name?

February 17th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming Comments Off

One of the first jobs when starting a new army is to think of a theme…well, it is for me, anyway. When gaming historicals, theme is not something that you normally have to worry about - you simply choose the historical period, choose the army you wish to play, and the theme takes care of itself. However, [...]

The Baccus painting challenge…

February 16th, 2009 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Command Horizon, Painting & Modelling, Sci-Fi Gaming, Wargames Shows Comments Off

I visited the Hammerhead show yesterday - always a good day out with lots to do and see. Having joked about it the previous week, I was actually quite restrained and didn’t purchase any figures for much of the day (though I did succumb to a couple of rule books!) Notice, I said much of the day. One [...]

October 29th, 2008 Earthquake Posted in 6mm Gaming, Aerial Combat, Napoleonic, World War II Comments Off

The postman was kind to me this morning and delivered 2 new sets of rules for my continued gaming delight… The first is the 2nd Edition of Polemos Napoleonic. As you already know if you read this blog or listen to the podcast, I’m a big fan of these rules, and have been looking forward to [...]
