Paper Armies and Rules

While I am still assembling my dark age forces (Saxons, Vikings and Normans) I am averaging 10 units of paper soldiers per week. The rule set I plan to use, Due Bellorum, arrived this week. I have yet to read them all the way through, but I see no reason why they cannot be adjusted to playing on a square grid.

Recent arrivals

Along with the rules I also purchased a physical copy of One-Hour Wargames by Neil Thomas. I have the eBook, which I am constantly referring to and also use the scenarios. I have found this book so refreshing I felt it deserved to by on the book shelf.

A few more Paper Figures completed

I took the opportunity this week to purchase some second hand WW2 vehicles and English Civil War (ECW) artillery from Hinds Figures. I received an email notification saying they were having 20% off in January, and the opportunity to pick up the odd model was too great. The WW2 vehicles are really just expanding the variety of models I have. While the ECW is to complete my artillery needs for my yet to be painted ECW figures. They will be my big project this year. I started collecting them (mostly Hinchcliffe) when I was 13 years old and made a number of attempts to paint them in my teens, all of which failed. So this year they will be eventually finished some 40 odd years later.
