We found our Driver

I am very happy, Cold Wars is past and I had two really good games. One of which I will be running again at Historicon in July.

But the main reason why I am very pleased with myself is that I have caught up on my painting. Everything I ordered or bought at Cold Wars is finished and table ready.  I even was able to catch up on some of the excess figures I had such as drivers (as reported in the header).

Not to worry, I still have plenty of miniatures to paint. I have the last of my Raviv Egyptians and sixteen Peter Pig Harden Militia Female Fighters. I plan on basing them on Gaddafi’s female guard, doing them in a dark blue. Great for Junta.

The Village Grows...and Grows Some More

So when does a village become a town. My village grew a little bit more today with the addition of three buildings and two terrain pieces. These came from Peter Pig in England along with the rest of the Israelis with AK47s for Raviv.

These new acquisition gives the village a new residence, a work shop and a small dwelling that could be either.

A new block in the village. I need to ensure that the road does not repeat itself. :)

The Egyptian Army 1969

Today the Egyptian Army got a boost in the form of an order received from Peter Pig. These Range 17 Harden Militia figures will form the back bone of the Egyptian Army for Operation Raviv. The down side is I still have to paint them. Oh bother.
