I conducted some of my first large scale terrain experiments earlier last year while building a series of terrain display boards for my 15mm FOW armies.  The basic elements I used were pretty effective and I had plans to make some more this winter and spring.

Southern California (SoCal) isn’t a location that often sees representatives of table-to gaming companies unless they’re homegrown. With major conventions like KublaCon in San Francisco and the Las Vegas Open (LVO) seven and five-hour drives away from the Los Angeles basin, SoCal often misses out on major hobby events.

That changed this week when the co-author of , and Warlord Games North American Demo Team grand-poobah Jon Russell paid SoCal a visit to launch the new Korean supplement and line of miniatures for Bolt Action.

Hosted by the (Pacific South West chapter), Russell visited three stores in the greater Los Angeles area Friday and Saturday, followed by a visit to San Diego in the extreme southern end of California.

Grey for Now Games has released version 2 of their Samurai skirmish game . The game was previously published by Warlord games but has now gone indie and as part of that moved ushered in version 2.

In this article, we’ll explore what Graham Davey, the author, has modified. We’ll look at why upgrade to version 2, and if you’re new to the game we’ll look at what it takes to get started.

The game takes place in the second half of the 15th century in Japan up until Tokugawa’s victory some hundred years later in 1603.  During the time it was an age of strife with many a minor warlord battling each other over now forgotten squabbles.  For a skirmish game such as Test of Honour, this provides a perfect setting.

As soon as I have made a new list, I simply HAVE to try it out. It is how I am. I find it very hard to play the exact same list over and over, even if I envy the players who do that, and by doing that, gets to know their list very well.

This is, however, the reason why I like making Tactical Suggestions. I don’t pretend to have all the answers, nor do I assume I’m always right, but I like to share my thoughts and experiences, in the hope that other players can be inspired.

I took a look at the early vehicles from the collection at the King of Jordan Royal Tank Museum. This time, I will share photos from the post-WWII eras.

Last winter when Battlefront announced the return to late-war in V4 my heart began to pound a little faster as I’ve always been a big fan of the M8 Greyhounds and Jeeps of the US Cavalry. I immediately examined the announced title page of the US D-Day book and was a little upset to learn that there was no Reconnaissance formation listed for the United States. And worse, upon examination, I realized that the Germans, British, and Russians all had a reconnaissance formation on their title pages. So with much trepidation, I’ve been awaiting word of what is going on with my beloved US Cavalry.

It seems that 2019 has a preoccupation with naval wargaming. Heart of Leviathan by is gaining steam, and Warlord Games recently launched Cruel Seas. has put their new 1:600 scale fleet game ‘Oak & Iron’ on prerelease. But,  stands head-and-shoulders above all the rest – literally. Unlike the other games which are 1:1200 scale, 1:600 scale, or even 1:300 scale;  Blood & Plunder does naval combat in 1:48 scale.

For most of us as gamers in the world of miniatures, I think for the majority of us we love sitting at a desk painting up our latest acquisition, be it a Leopard 2 for our Team Yankee West Germans, or a Cromwell for that added punch to a British Bolt Action Platoon.  Either way, we always take the time to look at pictures on Google, drag a book of the shelf or reach out to the forums for advice.

For me, I have been fortunate enough to travel.  This has provided excellent opportunities to get to those out of the way Museums around the world and actually reach out and touch some of this living history.  The aim of this article is to allow me to share one of those opportunities with you.
