My main interest is the Sengoku-Jidai, specifically the period around 1540-1590. I play miniatures games in the period from large battles in 6mm down to small skirmishes in 28mm.

Employ a lot of people by the sound of it.

Never a cic smotyn, that.

Belgium left so much space around Joe Rodon for the goal, Leopold II would have colonised it.

John Hartson on S4C for the Wales v Gwlad Belg match. Responsible for the greatest bit of football commentary ever:
"Gareth Bale is running amok here, he's running an absolute mok."

Nobunaga is able to turn to his left and shore up the flank.

Nobukiyo and Katsuie break Nobutaka's left. Victory to Nobunaga and Nobukiyo.

Gareth Beamish @adcpainting.bsky.social · 2d

Nobunaga's ashigaru pursue the withdrawing Nobutaka. Nobunaga has lost half of his guards and rallies the others.

Nobukiyo attack's Nobutaka's left. It's a matter of whose flank collapses first

Nobunaga's left sonae is practically destroyed

"Fought" obviously.

Nobutaka's right wing attacks Nobunaga's flank.

Katsuie returns to the fray to pin Nobutaka's forces while Nobukiyo attacks the flank

Battle of Ukino game pics. Battle foguht using my "Ningen Gojūnen" rules. Figures mainly 3D printed from Project Wargaming, printed by @sabotag3d.bsky.social

Nobunaga's "umamawari" observe Nobutaka's advance.

Usually because it's half past ten and one general decides to charge everything possible.

It's the "small battle" version "Ningen Gojūnen"

Bamboo

First go at a bit of rural terrain for my 28mm Sengoku Jidai project. A stand of bamboo. This is made from the usual cheap plastic bamboo from China. The plastic bamboo was soaked in a shallow tub …

6mm Sengoku. Battle joined at Inō. All coloured counter markers now replaced by figure markers. Which looks much better, but isn't as easy to keep track of. The old 'aesthetic v utility' thing again.

It's not old age if you "fell." It's only old age if you "had a fall."
