A German U-Boot has gotten into my convoy and is trying to sink the cargo ships. My destroyer turns around and makes quick work of it.

I recently broke my rule about not playing WW2 games and started painting Victory at Sea 1:1800 ship models. Here we see my Furutaka cruiser desperately lay smoke to get away. It was torpedo and destroyed anyway. Fun game and the ships are painted quickly.

The Warprinter Legends of the Forest kickstarter ends tomorow.
Even if you don't want to play am game about Robin Hood I think the figures also work as characters for TTRPGs or medieval skirmish games.

Two archers from the Warprinter Legends of the Forest range. I think they have just the right amount of detail. Does not make for such exciting 3d renders, but they are easily painted.

Here are two figures from the range that I painted.

Played SETI for the first time yesterday. What a game. Pretty impressive how all of this comes together, but it does suffer a little from people just muddeling through without much interaction. Except when you turn the solar system. Then everyone gets mad.

The annoying thing is that I think I’m gradually getting better at this.. whilst each ship I complete makes me even more convinced that I never want to have to do another set of rigging ever again! #BlackSeas

Kind of accidentally turned the week into Fate-of-the-Fellowship-week and played it on three evenings (2x in person, once online) with different people.
The third time we actually won.

First game of LotR: Fate of the Fellowship. We lost Lorien early in the game and it did not get much better from there. We conquered Minas Morgul, but did not manage to destroy the ring before our fellowship cards ran out. #boardgames

Played Arcs for the first time. I think I like it. Will have to play it again. #boardgames

Another game of Fire & Stone. After initially progressing quickly the siege gets stuck after the Ottomans have taken the covered way. The game ends with a desperate attack through the middle against the curtain wall. Ottoman victory by a hair's breadth. Down to the final dice role. #boargames

Finally finished my river Trebia for Strength and Honour. Main points were that I wanted it to have no seams and to lie really flat. Its made from wallpaper; painted with acrylics and glued on sand, fleece anf fine flock. Might add water effect on top at some point.

The finished, fully painted, fully based, fully labelled, 2mm scale II/49 Marian Roman army — with all possible options — for the De Bellis Antiquitatus 3 ruleset.

I realized that I hadn't taken a photo of the finished army all together.

@thelazyforger.bsky.social I am considering buying some of your stuff from etsy, but after some bad expirence with my own STLs I first want to ask if those people have legitimate licenses from you?

I think the wargaming community need to move past the;

'Don't tell my partner how much I spend on my hobby' jokes.

I mean, dysfunctional relationships are kinda funny, I guess?

I quite enjoy how clean these figures are. Makes for quick painting.
Here's a ghost with a top hat. #wip

Could you help us out? It's been one of the quietest months in a decade, and partly I believe it's because people don't know we exist! Hi! I'm Annie! I run Bad Squiddo Games! We hand sculpt & hand cast 28mm scale models of women, critters, scenics & occasionally a man!

Look at them! They are so smooth and shiny!
Seriously a joy to behold the casting quality of @statuesque.bsky.social. I wonder if there is some postprocessing involved or if they come our of the mold like this?

Here are my 2mm Carthaginians for Strength & Honour. Including close order Punic spearmen with attached elephant and skirmisher strips and Punic cavalry in close order and Numidian cavalry in open order.

Played Terraforming Mars for the first time. I like how it's very easy to have very different strategies. I used a lot of buildings and generated a lot of heat and oxygen, while my opponent went mostly for microbes, plants and animals. #boardgames
