as promised. Note, rolled pats, not quick oats. AU cup sizes are different to US cups. Will need to convert the cooking temp. Not sure if you can buy 'golden syrup' there. without it I would buy instead of making my own. Not sure what you call bicarb soda there.

My new #BoltAction dice bag I had custom made for me. I didn't go with the official latin motto, as others should enjoy it too.

Planning my WW2 tank campaign. Rules: Bolt Action to keep it simple and fast to play. Tanks: Start off with the Panzer IV. The B to F variants are the same for game stats. When available, I will switch to the Panzer V for the duration of the war.

I have an ambitious plan for a WW2 wargame campaign: taking a German Panzer platoon from 1939 - 1945. I would love to do this in 15mm, but the cost for what I would need, and the lack of variety of tanks holds me back. 10mm is looking good, and 6mm may be too small. 🤔

Day 16 of December 2025, and I narrowly avoided being Whammed whilst out shopping for groceries.
Fortunately, it was not the original version, but rather some sad wimpy boy band cappella version!
According to the rules, I have dodged a bullet.

Post a book you love from the 80s. No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

If you can find it, Monsuta beer is also a great choice

I have started reading this seeing as I am putting together a Russian crew together for 'The Silver Bayonet'.
Despite the font size is not friendly to my eyes, the book is a good read.

I just completed my first piece of scenery for The Silver Bayonet. Happy with the result, and may add a candle to the left hand side stump.

Logged in to #palia just now, and wondered if some kind of dream sequence was going on. I had to reload to be able to play
