With confinement continuing what will be coming out of the workshop this weekend

[Leslie BT]

Another week of confinement with no gaming, no play testing, not much travel what will Martin have to tempt us with this weekend.

More for Barons?

More for WW2?

More for Fighting for Mexico?

Or something else?

[Colonel Kilgore]

I had thought Martin might have had a well-deserved week off. Bracing early morning swims to get the blood moving: long walks along the Weymouth Riviera; some detailed research on Netflix for future projects...?

Do your bird!

How about a new sniper figure?

Thank you all for the positive expectation. That is nice to hear.
Doing mainly medical things this week    Seen a few doctors and nurses.

I am working on two packs of Rebels in cowboy hats, a Dodge pick up truck and putting some new racking in Nigel's workshop.  Getting Longships into PDF took a long time too.
For next weekend the above should all be ready. This will include the 4 person Dodge too (waiting for head strips).
Spent Friday doing "SNIPER" for MIll 9.  Needs ,more players please.

PS I watched "Resident Alien" which I thought was wonderful. Recommended.

Hope the recovery is on track?

Take it easier, get Nigel to work harder!
 

Snipers have been sprayed before the cold weather strikes. All being well, evenings next week will be spent painting them. But as they say - best laid plans!

Dave

[Colonel Kilgore]

How many snipers are you doing, Dave?

Simon

[Colonel Kilgore]

Martin,

I think Dave has a good point - more snipers are clearly needed. However, there's a very obvious problem with all the current ones: they're very visible. May I suggest you take inspiration from the still-awaited (or maybe they're there but we just can't see them?) hidden Boers and offer a pack of "super stealthy" snipers? Production costs would be very low, thus boosting profit margins?

A set for Russian/German/British just to give a bit of variation.

[Colonel Kilgore]

Presumably they will also come in handy for PBI too,  then Dave? I like the "annoyance factor" they bring into the game!

Simon

[Wardy64]

Dual purpose use. I am building forces for Russia, have a good German  panzer army. The Russians are lagging at the moment, need to push on this year so we are ready for 42 next year. Have brought some nice russian buildings which are being constructed to fight Stalingrad.

Maybe Beachhead 2022.

Dave

[Colonel Kilgore]

Those Russians could also be handy for Miles's Kursk game, Dave, once that shapes up .

I do pray Martin your medical visits were met with positive news.

Cheers,
Helen

[martin goddard]

Thank you Helen.

An odd request but what about a French 47mm AT Gun? That's the only thing I'm missing to complete my French forces. That and a Schneider P-16.

And when you get a bag of Snipers with nothing in it from PP--then they will be really hidden.
