New year, old army! @northstarfigs.bsky.social Saxons from Crusader. I do love the Crusader ranges. All hand painted shields, went with fairly simple patterns. Lovely minis, work well with my style. #Warmongers #wepaintminis #wargaming #lateroman #miniaturepainting #28mm #tts

Well worth getting as a CoC player. Not just an update but a very significant supplement to the rules. I’m looking forward to trying it out in 2026 even though it feels bit intimidating to be honest!
Now available for Continental European wargamers too at @wssmagazine.bsky.social

The front cover of Junction Jeopardy by Henry Hyde
I’ve just competed the set-up on Amazon KDP for the paperback of Junction Jeopardy. The cover price will be £8.50, which is as low as I can keep it for the spirit of the ‘Coffee Break’ cost and I’ll be earning less than £2 a copy – so will need to sell fahsens! Should be available from Christmas Eve
Here is an AAR from when we played the fifth battle of the Ruckzug campaign. Desperate times for everyone!
Twin suns blaze over Tatooine. Grimskragg da Sneaky Boy leads his Orks across the dunes, boots sinking like humie scouts. Ahead: an Imperial moisture farm.
“Right, lads,” he growls. “We’z gonna sneak in, bash da humies, and nick all da shiny stuff. QUIET, see?”
Wow, amazing crossover! 🤪
Only one week to go! finishes 9/12/25!
Battle four in our Ruckzug campaign - can the British keep up the tempo and drive the Germans before them, or will the Germans successfully delay them and fall back in good order?

We are drawing close to the end game in our Scottish Corridor campaign for Chain of Command. It's coming down to the wire, with victory within grasp of either side. First, the Germans must try to take Colleville....can they do it as the first attempt?

A Sunday read - the 3rd battle in our Rückzug campaign for Chain of Command!
The Germans have things under control so far but the British have paused to get a new platoon to the front and have extra resources. Will it be enough for breakthrough?
staffans-hobby-corner.blogspot.com/2025/11/ruck...
Well those are two horses you wont have to paint again at least!
Some pictures from the action...
What's this? Some Friday reading - the second battle in our Rückzug campaign for Chain of Command!
Will the Germans be able to keep retreating in good order or sill the British overrun their positions...?

Back in the saddle with more cavalry! The dark one feel a bit meh but I’m closer to getting a unit on the table. Both are @northstarfigs.bsky.social with LBMS transfers. Some added wear and tear as usual. #Warmongers #wepaintminis #wargaming #lateroman #miniaturepainting #28mm #tts
That is just to delicious mate... 😍

Here is a battle report on the first battle of the Rückzug campaign for Chain of Command we are playing. A British motor platoon attacks scattered German forces in a Delaying Action mission.

I'm sure lots of buyers would be interested!
One thing I would love to see with this release would be some sort of ”designer’s notes” or something like that. Since so much research has gone into this from your side. Maybe some painting and equipment guide?
KAMPGRUPPE ARNHEM 'HICKSTARTER'.
The 'Hickstarter' is not far away. We have moulded the last figures and ready to push the button.
Panzerschreck team preview. Still a lot more to show you! Stay tuned.

Yeah, you can just do it with an honor system. But it is fun to involve n extra person. It’s a gaming mate who lives some distance from us. He cant come for a game but can at least roll some dice!
The 3rd guy rolls dice for support and tells the relevant player but not his opponent.
So I as british know how many support points I have in the upcoming battle, my opponent does not.
My opponent has some supports that I know nothing of.
We are using a third player for support rolls to add Fog of War.
The first battle is this Wednesday, Delaying Action.
Time to kick of a new Chain of Command campaign! It's Ruckzug by David Hiscocks from the 2021 Lard mag. Retreating Germans try and keep things under control & the British try to turn the retreat into a rout.
