Better late than never, I thought I'd share a few photos of the loot I collected at Cavalier Wargames Show at the end of February.
Firstly some reinforcements for my Parkfield Miniatures, WWII Finnish army I'm in the middle of painting up. Two sets of machine gun teams, one firing and one moving.
Next up some Barbed wire from Last Man Last Bullet, again for my Finns.
A random purchase, a French team for, cough, Not Silver Bullet. I might be able to use some for my and Lee's Retreat from Moscow armies. I've not yet had the time to match the figures up size wise with my collection. But they sure are nice sculpts. and sorry, but I can't work out which company I bought them from, they sold loads of beautiful 3D printed buildings, anyone know?
From the Bring n Buy I bought my 2nd copy of Black Powder, even though I've never played the game. Why 2nd copy you ask? Well the first, I bought on ebay without realising it was A5 sized. The writing is so small, I can't read it even with my goggles on!
Well, We need the rules for the Finns! Lee wanted to use Bolt Action over Chain of Command, only coz he thinks he can get more hits on his you tube channel, the tart!
And with the rules, I got this free figure of Francis S Currey.
From Products for Wargamers, I picked up these 2 hills.
And some magnetic sheeting.
Picked this Osprey up, from one stall, how didn't I know about this book?
I spent a few quid at Debris of War as I always do. Yes more trees as well. But thus time they're for my 15mm collections.
Lastly more from Debris of War. 25mm hedges, which I want to cut up and make bushes and some 15mm hedges as well to add to my ever growing collection.
And that my friends, is that!
A very decent haul Ray and all very usefull!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more, Donnie!
DeleteQuite an impressive haul, Ray! Picking a set of rules using a criterion of number of potential YouTube hits is a new on to me! Your job may be to keep Lee on the rails.
ReplyDeleteThat's a hard thing to d,o Jon, when it come to his channel!
DeleteQuite the haul, but amazingly disciplined! I agree with you, Lee is outa' line.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I 'd forgotten how much I'd bought. Lee's a bad bad man!
DeleteTreasure indeed Ray.
ReplyDeleteAye lad!
DeleteAll in the good cause of keeping you happy and out of mischief. Quite a mix.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed!
DeleteA nice haul Ray. These French sculpts look great and the poses are some you don't often see. I really like the Debris of War trees. Looks like I might have to go to a show as unfortunately they don't ship to Australia.
ReplyDeleteDebris of war do make some nice gear!
DeleteNice load of stuff from your swag bag.
ReplyDeleteIt was a little larger than I thought?
DeleteFound some good looking bargains and some lovely sculpts in all that lot.
ReplyDeleteGotta agree, Dai!
DeleteA lot of great stuff Ray!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteNice mix of figures, rules and terrain Ray!
ReplyDeleteIndeed it was a great wallet emptying day!
DeleteA nice looking haul Ray
ReplyDeleteCheers Neil.
DeleteNice swag bag Ray.....personally I wouldn't bother with Warlord rules, they are all pretty average in my experience but there is no doubt they are probably the most widely played commercial sets, which is all they are trying to achieve, after all...Lee is probably hoping they will bung him some freebies to help promote their products!
ReplyDeleteI really like those 3d prints too!
I will probably never play Black Powder, but we'll give Bolt Action a go, for sure. Agreed about the sculpts, they're very animated.
DeleteQuite the load! Did you leave anything behind?
ReplyDeleteThere was plenty of other stuff to go round, Alex. lol!
DeleteFine haul Ray
