I don't know why but these are giving more trouble than any other of my projects. The figures are Victrix Anglo-Danes and Normans and are superb sculpts, the scheme is very simple and yet it's a bit of a drudge.

Close combat or assaulting enemy positions is extremely deadly in Chain of Command², let's follow Cpt. Mainwaring as he eventually succeeds in defeating the dastardly Germans.

A nerdy, statistical approach to close combat and what you need to win.

I don't know who needs to hear this but: the actor playing a fascist in an anti-fascist play is only pretending to be a fascist. Attacking actors during their performance is not okay.

Misconceptions about Spartans have been a thorn in my side for a long time too. For twenty years the only Vikings in pop culture have been 300's Hoplites but with crappy rune neck tattoos.

Good morning! It’s Friday once again, you know what that means.

This week the theme is…blood.

So let’s see the red stuff.

As usual I’ll repost the lot and if you like something, share it!

Weird (and impact-less) thought: Based sheerly on the number of viewers who have seen Frozen, it is actually possible that I wrote the runic text that more people have seen than any other.

How credible is extended deterrence when, at the same time, you emphasize that you only take a supporting role in a conventional escalation?

In other words, how much of a deterrent effect does it have on an adversary when you tell them: if you almost defeat the Europeans, then we will nuke you?

I have a weird moment of jumbled up time sense. Usually I can place a movie or show in the correct year that I watched it. And when I'm wrong it's usually in the vein of 'Oh THAT long ago'. I watched Terminal List: Dark Wolf when it came out. Last year. I could have sworn I saw it earlier than that.

YouTube will tell you 'lunchtime on a Wednesday' is the kind of time an insane person releases a video, but that's never stopped me!

Once again leaning into using ivory as a 'universal highlight,' here's @warfulcrumgames.bsky.social's 1918 British getting some attention.

There's a reason Lemonade's a thing and nobody's asking for Persimmonade. Plus I'm allergic.
I don’t mind being handed lemons but don’t hand me persimmons. I don’t want your persimmons. Nobody wants your persimmons.
