I am not fond of t80s. They are overpriced and still die quickly. Plus the rate of fire issue.

WE are playing every Tuesday at Geeks and games. 42 mile drive for me, but I need to okay. Not many people their on Tuesdays store wise so we get the whole store mostly to ourselves. play starts around 6 to 6:30 some are there earlier.

Atules, Sorry for not seeing this earlier. 1 Helicopters and anything from reserves count as moving So no missle fire unless you a Hind (soviet) or planes yY 2. You can always have them on foot. Then call back the transports later. In the movement step, air or ground vehicles. 3. see number 2 4. I run airmoble mixed with 432's and they have yet to lose a game 7/7 5. Milans are still very good.They no have some models that can ignore them like T80 etc. I try to always bring some chieftans to support an object or push an attack. I have been playing a full chieftan formation w 3 platoon and a full airmobile. They compliment each other nicely.

I am still playing and modeling. Best game ever. FOW and TY.

Sounds like you have been busy. I am really loving battletech again, I thought i would never play again after I burned out years ago. I have gotten my first vaccine dose in and next week get my second dose. I will still need to be careful, but need get moving with more traditional fun activities again soon. Keeping my sanity is important, and I need be around people. Great to hear from you Zeke

Those look great. My soviets have grown vastly due to lockdown, but not much paint has been applied. Happy that I got them assembled. My Americans and Brits have also creeped larger.

Resin 3d printer? Looks like fun. I have considered getting one. But other expenses have came first.

Hello anybody, It has been a very strange few years. Life went sideways for us all. Things are starting to start to settle. How is everyone? What is new for you. What have you been doing for hobbies to stay sane. I have got cancer, had some major surgeries, chemo tried to kill me. I survived. I did manage to add lots of models to my collection. FOW mostly soviets, TY expanded greatly, I Even restarted battletech. I got the new starter sets and a few 3d printed mechs, I have been getting slaughtered by my son my record is 2 in 15. He loves beating the old man. My biggest gain was in terrain. I have 50 plus new buildings, 4 new gaming mats, and loads of misc new. I modified my guest room into a miniature game room, but i kept my painting desk in a room with a view. I bought a 2021 36ft travel trailer, and a 2000 f350 1ton dually. So my family can get out, yet stay socially distanced. We love it. Last year was brutal, but we are pulling thru it. Life is good, God is great. What is going on with you?

I am alive and kicking. Not sure how my box filled up. I blame the squirrels. Pesky nasty fellows always filling up every crevice with chewed up what nots. No way could it be me being lazy.

I got my British Fow d day book today from Geeks and Games. I love it.

I gave this a try. Brits got attacker in breakthru. Soviet Bmp2 co sat and awaited the brits. The cheeky brits bypassed the Soviets by flying over them on to the object, just waiting to dismount on round 2. The soviet rolled reserves rnd 1 called in 6 frogfoots, and then proceeded to maul the Brit troops in choppers, AAA reduced them further to 3 teams per squad. An ominous start. Air turned out to be utterly decisive. I need to rethink my Brits, the soviets were amazing. Air with planes and attack helicopters is devastating, do not underestimate it. Nelson

How many are we talking about and how old? Is it only blisters or is there box sets? I am interested yet I have many questions.

I set up my ping pong table with a full size battlefield. I am going to run Soviet BMP2 formation with T64s again a british Air mobile with 2 formations of scouts, with some armor support. About 120 points per side. Will be toms of air on both sides. I am hypothesizing that whichever gains control of the sky will dominate. I will roll for a mission on the chart. Both sides will be highly aggressive. Nelson

I have finished (mostly painting my Brits for Team yankee and really want to play them. Next up to paint more of my soviets for TY. I may try a solo game Brits VS Soviets. Hobby time is good, but I also have my kids at home to keep me busy. Stay safe Nelson

I will be at Guardian on 13 Feb. Bringing British and Soviets.

I will be late tonight 6 Feb 2020. Who is coming tonight?

I will be not be in town for 9 Jan 2020. I will be in Arizona.

I will be there thursday. Bringing Germans, Russians. British.

We had a good game Chris brought a Tiger/ Beach landing force that we shared and we played against Steve. Tigers for the win.

OK Zeke. I need to see if my ideals will work. It is sound in theory, but the game is more than math. I am curious how it will work.

For the 19 December I would like to play against Germans beach defense ( same force Chris used last week) against Zeke and his Stuarts. Chris wants to try out his brand new German Fallsmyajers (spelling is way off) against Barcas Americans.
