Womble report 10

-



 Managed to get out today after two days legs up by order of the doctor.  A slow walk but non the less fun.

Great display for the day from local model shop Turners Models a most excellent place rammed full of goodies, and fond memories for me, as thats where all this gaming really kicked off for me!

Turners Models Dover Kent


Passing the charity shops I spied this little thing that piqued my interest, I felt sorry for it, as it was the last of the display.

A nice surprise on opening….



All in! And as usual I have something planned for this Womble find.


Finally I added two more (last two on the shelves), to the micro Star Wars collection.  Not quite the rare “chase” figures but more rebels!  My partner warned me of foul play on the seals and I suspect her correct! So I will be checking the seals and reporting findings to the store, if they even care? We will see.
And one day I shall game, my children are already noticing and saying which ones they like, so just one day time permitting “pew pew”

 So for now, my family and I are housed, temporarily. Recently life has been pretty harsh, we have had to move out and quickly, we have done it almost in six days with very little to do today.  Sign of the times I guess. The effort on all of us has been mentally and physically challenging, cracks appeared but we march on into the void. My children were complete troopers, lending a hand where they could. It’s going to be difficult, but at least we have a roof above us, as opposed floating in the air like a discarded carrier bag. So what now what of my hobby?  (Up cycled art box that almost went to the dump!) Well I have this blog and a whole heap of ideas for games(some that I haven’t had yet) with my handy kit, when I get time I can either play, create or paint. Like many people with depression and anxiety, this hobby helps so much, I would be lost with out it. I’ve been playing, creating and enjoying this multifaceted hobby since the age of 11. Returning to the hobby, can be rather co

 Recently I’ve been playing a lot of Portable Wargame.  It’s a great little game with a lot of scope! Plus the fact that you can scale it down to a 3x3 board, handily craft some 2mm blobs for it and away you go! (Perfect for my current position, which isn’t great). Out of pure amusement and curiosity I wondered what it would play like, if I for go the roll for hitting….and just rolled to see what has been done. In this game I shall try and show this silliness to which has given me much amusement. Now of course there will be a few amendments but very simple ones: Flanks/rear attack -1 to the result Attack troops in a defensive position -1 to the result The opposing tray(s) will of course gain a bonus +1 for the above. Now here’s the tricky bit…. If modified to 0 or below remove the tray If modified to 6 or above the tray suffers nothing Of course the or result is if the unit cannot move back because of intervention of other trays. The game, the classic struggle, Dwarf and Man vs Orc pi

No game of WW2, but that’s okay I’ve had two great games and the gaming butterfly has carried me away! I’m embracing many finds that excite the imagination. Making some basic scenery for the Wild West, still to get them on board but will have the simple to store supplies ready when time drops. A game with the Star Wars miniatures using ‘close wars ‘ by Featherstone. Worked out great and a very entertaining game, when all forces are on the table work a method to see how the bounty hunters and troopers react to each other, the troopers in my game disposed of the bounty hunters ha! Easier on the hands than milliput and a great resource find. Hoping to get some interesting shapes for a 2mm project, get the look of mass brawling armies on table again! Also should be the perfect portable project. Sadly our time is up and real life has taken over.
