http://chuckgame.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Musings and meanderings concerning the many gaming activities in the land of chuck. Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Williamsburg Muster - accidental convention trip. So, recently, I had to tell folks that asked that I was not going to be able to attend Marscon and the Williamsburg Muster. Both in Williamsburg, Virginia (one of my favorite places on Earth, even though Scribner's. Is closed since 1984, Rizzoli's. Is closed since 2001, and the Williamsburg Toymaker. The winter version of That Board Gaming Thing.

Pete's Wargaming Blog: Notable games and developments on the gaming front in last 18 months
http://peteswargamingblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/notable-games-and-developments-on.html
Blog about my own Wargaming interests. Friday, 14 March 2014. Notable games and developments on the gaming front in last 18 months. If my painting has been interrupted and blogging completely suspended as the result of some personal difficulties in the last 18 months, I have managed to get some gaming in, if at a much reduced level. While I sadly had to drop out as a full member of my local club and was not able to put on any of my own games. Better not mention that. World War 1 game in progress. I had s...

Blog about my own Wargaming interests. Monday, 21 May 2012. FUBAR Battle Report: Action on Garda Vilis. This is the set-up for playing out our FUBAR game set in the Traveller Universe 'Action on Garda-Vilis', based on the scenario set out in my last post. Figures are largely EM4 and Denizen.Vehicles came out of a couple of toy sets in the local Pound Shop. This is a shot of the same scene from a different angle. And another from Steve (the Sword World) side of the table. In their second outing the FUBAR ...

Little Metal Men: Still Alive
http://littlemetalmen.blogspot.com/2013/03/still-alive.html
A companion blog to LittleMetalMen.com. Monday, March 25, 2013. After yet another prolonged absence from all things LittleMetalMen.com, I make an appearance! I will say that the bulk of the CMS is, for all intents and purposes, is completed. Just a few more things to add, which I hope will result in more content appearing on the site. Campaign. The figure in question is Marius Burrowell. Once I dig the camera out I'll post a photo. These are miniatures I purchased eight years ago at Historicon.

Blog about my own Wargaming interests. Monday, 29 October 2012. Some Rapid Fire on the Eastern Front. A couple of years ago and I only had a few armies to bring along to a club night, but such has been my productivity last year in particular that I'm actually now reaching the stage that I have stuff that I feel guilty I haven't got out of the cupboard in a long time. Overview from the Russian left wing. German infantry are already entering the town before they can stop them. It was only on looking up how...

Blog about my own Wargaming interests. Thursday, 21 June 2012. WW1 - some additions to the German forces. Just a quick and belated entry for a model bought last year, one for Christmas and one for my birthday. The other two were much more famous, the 'Red Baron's' Focker triplane and a Fokker DVII. Obviously itching to get more of these, but as I'm getting them to complement land battles will do for a bit of trench strafing. Sunday, 10 June 2012. French Eagles for 20mm Napoleonics. 10 minutes later and I...

Pete's Wargaming Blog: Battle of Hoth
http://peteswargamingblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/battle-of-hoth.html
Blog about my own Wargaming interests. Saturday, 15 March 2014. These are some photos of the Battle of Hoth game which Steve 'the Hat' put on last August. Steve bought lots of figures and turned up with an impressive two AT-STs for the game. Thanks to Steve for a great game. The rules were FUBAR and the activation rolls kept the game on a knife-edge and worked well, once again. My contribution was a 'snow cloth' and my figures. I'll let the pictures tell the story. A Snow-Speeder prepares to launch.

Blog about my own Wargaming interests. Thursday, 10 December 2009. Scenery for 1/300th scale: Trees. These are my various efforts at making trees and woods for 1/300 scale microarmour. The first picture is some pine trees. A few years ago I discovered a discarded plastic christmas tree in a skip and rescued some of it (not a very popular move with the wife! Down at my old club, Rob mentioned that he had made some 15 mm trees using some discarded upholstery foam he had scrounged from work. He used scr...
