0-2-3 is a tournament record I have...

First off, the pile is not greatly reduced this week but I did start on the first Tercio and here we are:

That's what half a Tercio looks like. I'm actually really happy and will press on as I like how it's coming out. The complete lack of uniformity is making it a slow process but the end result should be very cool indeed.

Once again, Tank and I took a silly army north and once again, we over estimated how well we'd do with it (didn't win a game!) but we still had a good time!  

I didn't manage to get all the forces but here goes something:

Gav and Greg's Germans

Tank's Finns (I co-piloted)

Jon and Chris' Russians

Mark and Derek's Italo-German Recce

Pooch's DAK(Scotty co-piloted)

Andrew's Americans

Andre's Brits that didn't get to play

Steve and McB Jnr's Germans

BB & Richard's army with Borgwards

Pel and McBeth's Brits

 I missed Soph and Russell's winning Russians and Team Ham and Honey's best painted Paras and Stewarts which was a shame as they were both lovely.

 This pic kind of sums up the weekend:


Tank prepares the heroic defence of our right hand objective in our last round as our piss poor dice once again get us alarmingly close to doing okay only to fall annoyingly and irritatingly short. That was kind of our weekend - hot or cold dice all weekend that made every game a crap shoot as to how well we'd do.

The army itself wasn't bad, but had some flaws we'd rectify if we played it again. It wasn't bad, but going up against armoured car hordes was too much. 

Next Time

A finished Tercio, a few other projects from the pile and maybe a foray into mid-war Italian Paratroopers again.
