Time for an Introduction I started to war-game with a friend in Jr High School back in the 1960's. We made good use of the toy department at WT Grants Department Store. In those days, ROCO mini tanks were sold for around 50 cents. They also had plastic 1/72 scale planes and model ships. We did it all for the 3 years in Jr High. I continued wargaming all through high school and then entered the ROTC program in college. There I met Joe Fish ( pancerni@fish tales.blogspot) and began a friendship that has lasted since 1970. A tour as an Infantry Officer in Germany led to a lot of solo games.

UNIFORMS OF DAHARA 7 The Guard de Corps The quiet countryside of a late spring day in Dahara is shattered by the sounds of trumpets and thundering hooves. The Guard de Corps, pride of the Army, is on the move towards the battle front with Fuddland. The sunlight shines off their gold cuirasses. Their commanding officer, Count Lubbock, is resplendent with his golden helmet topped with a bold red comb. His trumpeter, Max, is in reversed colors with a white comb. He does not ride a grey horse. The Guard rides a matched set of Black horses from the Master's Stud. Their tack is bold red. Daharan Blue tunics with red facings clothe all of the regiment. Other ranks wear black combs on their golden helmets. Soon Fuddland will tumble to the sound of the guard approaching!
Painting Challenge Jan 27 - Feb 2 In small scale painting this week is a 6mm/1-285 scale Tornado attack aircraft from GHQ Models. This will be used in modern micro armor games for the Cold War, as well as for the Imperial Daharan Army Air Corps. In the above photos, we have more of my Thirty Years War project. The first one is for a 4th Shotte unit. Two shot units will be paired with a pike unit to make one larger unit. The bottom photo is of more figures for a commanded shot unit. I will have enough figures for several of this type of unit. Here we have more figures for my Neapolitan army. This will complete the 1st Battalion of the 5th Regiment which wore Green facings. A photo of the completed battalion is below. This completed the painting for January. The statistics are as follows. Beginning Balance 9849 Added 54 Painted 103 Ending Balance 9800
