The Rejects are Mad For War!!!
As you may already be aware, we had a fun packed weekend at the Rapture Games Show, playing the Dutch attack on Chatham Dockyard at Chatham Dockyard with Barry Hilton, using his very own Mad For War rules.
I had already been gifted a squadron of English and Dutch form my daughters, for Fathers Day.
The other Rejects, Postie, Richard, Lee and Steve all ordered a few ships, see below!!
And of course a copy of the rules each.
If you're Mad For War too, you can pick them up here, in the UK or here, for the US.
We've not done a group project for many years, so we're all looking forward to having a few group painting sessions and get this project started.
The ships can be found here, if you fancy a bit of Anglo-Dutch Wars naval action.
Wow, that's A PILE of ships Ray....you must have caught the naval bug good and proper!
ReplyDeleteI did think they might buy a couple of ships each, but I wasn't expecting this lot. Barry was very pleased!
DeleteReally, what Keith has said already! The models do look good and look forward to seeing them painted and then in action:).
DeleteMe too Steve.
DeleteDang Ray, how did you explain that to your wife? There's no she would have believed the cock and bull story about the others contributing.
ReplyDeleteNone of these are mine, they're allbthe other Rejects.
DeleteQuite an impressive spread on display, Ray. I have a very large sack of these models too. I have been saving this project for many years. One day, I may actually get to it.
ReplyDeleteThere's always hope?
DeleteA very impressive haul and also excellent to see it being done as a group project …. Much goodness to come!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to all the fun.
DeleteIt is going to take an army of you to paint all of those figures.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly will, Alex.
DeleteImpressive collection!! Looking forward to seeing your group project come to life.
ReplyDeleteMe too!
DeleteGreat looking collection Ray!
ReplyDeleteJust gotta organize a group session.
DeleteThere are a lot of ships there. Did the other Rejects go for similarly sized collections? It will all look terrific when completed.
ReplyDeleteThis is the group collection, minus my ships.
DeleteThat's an amazing variety of ships!
ReplyDeleteAll sorts indeed!
DeleteYou really seem to be testing your eyes these days Ray.
ReplyDeleteNew glasses are needed George!
DeleteLooking forward to getting stuck into these in our group project.
ReplyDeleteMe too, Lee!
DeleteThat is a lot of lead to sort and paint no doubt. Are those Triremes at bottom edge ?
ReplyDeleteThey certainly look like it? Not sure what they are?
DeleteSplendid looking project on a really interesting war!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Should be fun.
DeleteWow! This somewhat reminded me of a Tale of Four Gamers from the old GW days, Ray. What a cracking load of lead you have at no mistake. Looking forward to seeing how this project progresses, and doubtless a few big battles too. Splendid stuff.
ReplyDeleteCheers Simon, looking forward to the project myself.
DeleteLove it ! — I shall follow with interest
ReplyDeleteGreat set of rules Dave, give them a go.
DeleteOh boy, that's one heck of a lo of ships, this id going to be a great project to track.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're right Joe!
DeleteGoing to be quite an impressive set up on the table once theyre all painted and laid out in squadrons.
ReplyDeleteIt should be pretty epic!
