That is a great looking game, Bill! How many people played this and where did you play? It looks fabulous.

Touch up or repaint some of these vehicles.





Merge Sherman blade with Russian tractor, both WW2.

Love the game Bill and hope one day to do a similar board. Curious as to why you based your gliders? To preserve paint job (which looks excellent)? I have not based my gliders.

Chris - great idea in the Russian tractors, had not thought of that modification. Very cool.

@Pete, we had 8 players and I did my normal GM duties. The game was a club game held in my basement game room.

@Burt, thanks very much for the kind words. You nailed it on the gliders. My previous batch, which were Collectair if I recall correctly, were pretty beat up. This board is particularly abrasive due to the rocky soil.

Bill, that's spectacular! I love the photos - great looking game as always!

Great looking tractor Chris!

Thanks, Bill! Sounds like a good time had by all.

Mud… we’ll when I stripped the paint off, not all came off, so mud.
Really muddy.

Hi all,

I am a long time lurker, first time poster. I just finished up my BMD-4 VDV Company, and wanted to share. (ty Battle Order for TO&E)


HQ Squad with 1 BMD-4 and 1 BTR-D, 3 Platoons of 3 BMD-4, and a Weapons Squad with their own BTR-D


I thought the arid camo would look better than standard green, I was pretty happy with how it turned out


I tend to take some artistic liberties with my infantry, 95% green models are not that fun to paint in my opinion. I'm not a huge fan of these modern RU infantry. Although this is my first eastern faction I have put together, I guess I can't expect them to look as good as the IDF models I use for most of my western factions.


I'm too cheap to shell out for the RU heavy weapons pack just for just one MG, so I just snagged a static from an extra Toyota Technical I had. Weapons and HQ squads are slightly undermanned at the moment, might get around to that after finishing my Swedish and Norwegian Mechanized Infantry Coys. Until then, Cheers! I always enjoy checking this message board, equally inspiring and humbling to see everyone's work!

Thanks for looking,

Wow Bill! That looks amazing!!!

Bill fantastic smoke effect.

SK-105 are made with hull of M-41 and turret of AMX-13 (90) N-113. It is shorter and thicker to represent the 105mm.

The two SK-105 on the right are retreating or placed in a hide to bug-out; the three on the left are advancing.

I found this tractor among a box of bits and bobs whilst looking for something else. Maybe the start of a modern Ukrainian army?

That's a cool find Gazza! Do you know the manufacturer? I love it when I'm looking for something and I find a long lost and forgotten vehicle or turret!

I think that it's from AV2 - Airfield Set 2 by Skyraider Miniatures in the UK.
