What's New


Not much to report. I didn't game last week nor am I gaming this week. Our group is doing a 15mm WW2 game but I cannot attend as I am going out f town for a few days. However, I have been painting up some Confederate cavalry dismounts. I have a couple Confederate cavalry brigades that don't have dismounts. I had a good number of Union dismounts, so I just painted them as Rebels. I figured they were wearing captured supplies. I did purchase a large number of unpainted figs from Bartertown. Bartertown is an online source for gamers to buy/swap figs or whatever. I purchased about 200 figs for $35. They are Essex figs so I know I got a good deal. The gentleman I purchased them from also through in some extra arty as well as some stands for mounting. Once I finish with the Rebel dismounts, I plan on working on the new figs I bought.


As for our ACW campaign, we have 2 more battles/games to complete before the next strategic turn. Based upon one of the battles we have coming up, I believe I may need to get those new figs painted up! I am not too sure if I have enough brigades involved in my attack upon a Union city. The other battle as me as the defender.
Coming soon, I intend to publish a few pics of my hobby area. I just completed it this past year after about 5yrs of stalling. I manage to get more things done in an hour than I did just doing the painting etc. upstairs. My area is in the basement. Now with daylight savings, I find it somewhat difficult t go down and paint, but I am sure I will get over the change:)
Until next time, good gaming all!!
