I just need to do a few more tanks. We’ve played it before I think we got 8 tanks aside in 15mm on a club night, rolling on replacements to keep people in. Remember it being great fun

We’re going to see if we can run a game in 15mm at the club to see if we can encourage him and others to have a game

Thanks, I hadn’t made the connection to your online account. Thanks for getting the lad interested, he really enjoyed it.

@joewargamer.bsky.social a moody shot my son took today

He had a few more so hopefully another collector also gets a few. He did say he sells online but would prefer these went to collectors. They’ll allow me to split by goblins into two regiments when done 👍

Mondo @mondo4.bsky.social · 3d

Ah yes that was him. I fared the same as you. Thanks for gaming against him 👍

On the way out of Partizan I picked up some oldhammer gobbos a table top seller was running for charity. I couldn’t really see what I was buying in the tent light and without my glasses. Home now and blown away… tsr and c range mainly inc 2 that work as foot or wolf riders #oldhammer

35-50 ish plus maybe a couple of vehicles. Not huge to get started. Works well in 15/20/28 mm

One of the guys I’ve known the longest in wargames is retiring soon. Got him Chain of Command 2 as a gift so we can hopefully get some Friday games in #spreadthelard

Joe’s tables are a superb entry into the hobby. Sadly he’ll then have to play on mine 🤣

They are cracking. Might get the kantar blue equivalent to do some more oldhammer marines in the new year

Mondo @mondo4.bsky.social · 3d

Great to catch up with everyone at Partizan today, and a chance to get my eldest playing a game. He really enjoyed @joewargamer.bsky.social what a tanker game, we were discussing getting some tanks on the way out which is the most interest he has ever shown #spreadthelard

Looking good 👍

It’s very sandbox, you can try and use the different troop types and special skills to reflect. Most of the marines are heavy infantry whilst the orks are berserk infantry with one squad of heavy infantry. The orks have more troop types so are more erratic and to handle

Base coats going on. I’ve realised with batch painting it’s quicker to make the same mistake 50% of the time and then touch up than try and be careful…
