A week on Sunday, Hammerhead 07 takes place at Kelham Hall, Newark. It is a wargames show that focuses on participation gaming. Amongst the 35 traders standing...

Well....Im way late answering this email, been away awhile...haha... But after basing them all, I went over lightly with some olive drab green on the jungle...
Hi There Tom, The main problem I have found is how to get the paint to stay on the nylon plastic.Have you solved this problem and if so,what/how do you make...

yep, that and if you want soak them in bleach for a few minutes as well. I used to paint alot of soft plastic figs, until I switched to the all powerful white...
I just based my 6 hueys and 3 f-4's, and a C-47 Douglas. I used some acrylic rods and some acrylic bases I had custom made. They also sold me some plastic...
hope it doesn't sound too wierd... but I painted my first batch of VC, and frankly, well, the flesh tones are too pink... any idea what color I can use for...
Hi There, I would add a little brown or something to your base tone. And put a wash over your basic flesh tone.For making washes I use burnt umber arcylic from...
Hi, Jim. ... That's not a weird question. I just want to echo the recent advice given you. This is a case where you have to use a wash. Nothing else really...

Hi, Jim. ... There are no known paperwork problems with fire teams in Charlie Company. The only problem arises from possibly stretching your troops to thinly...
Why would you want to? I mean I guess if you have enough players or not enough minis, then yeah I guess you can do it that way and give the corporal an XP...
... I had assumed that the idea was to keep the fire teams under the control of the same player, but creating fire team-sized units and calling them "squads"...
... Because according to the rules, the only time this is a problem is when the detachment leaves LoS of the Controlling Sgt. I always thought that rule was...
... I agree that there are very few times when it becomes a tactical necessity to break a squad into fire teams, but it does happen. There may be times when...
I just added some files to the file sections that I have been meaning to upload for a long time. Since I was about to run a game this weekend I reminded myself...
I am wondering if booby traps are really all that effective in Charlie Co. What I am finding is that 90% of the traps, the US players will find by passing...
... OK, my first comment would be that this isn't what should happen, statistically speaking. Your average expertise should not be 9, so your squads should be...
Most XP rating of my players averages around 6-7, with the occasional dunce at 3. My players always have fun. Or at least so far they always have been having...
... So 90% is just an anomaly. If the combat order bonus for finding traps is "getting in the way," then give'em more traps so they'll spend more time looking...
