6mm Sengoku village base construction. 10cm 2mm mdf base. Fences and clothes line made from plastic sweeping brush bristles and card. 2D6 Miniatures buildings positioned roughly on base. Civilians from GHQ Vietnam range. Pond and fish effect painted on base.
Remove AI from your Google searches. Go to this site and search Google without Aldridge Pryor, the hopeless liar, cluttering your search.

If AI disappeared tomorrow, my work day would get easier. Mainly by not having to circumvent all the useless AI add-ons in every app.
Hmmm, a truly horrible person has died.

Sashimono: Aesthetic versus Utility
One of the most distinctive visual aspects of Sengoku Jidai battles are the sashimono. En masse they can create a visual effect unlike any other period. But is it historically accurate for every fi…

Blog post in which I recommend a book for wargaming the Sengoku Jidai with one rather obvious drawback... tenkafubu608971038.wordpress.com/2026/07/25/t...
The Best Single Book on the Sengoku Jidai for Wargamers
There’s the click-baity title, so let’s go straight to the book in question. “Illustrated Weapons and Armour” by Higuchi Takaharu, illustrated by Watanabe Shingō. Amazon link. As usual, grab the IS…

6mm Crusades. Knights of Dark Renown. Raymond, Count of Tripoli; Balian D'Ibelin, Lord of Nablus; Reynald De Chatillon, Prince of Outrejourdain and Gerard De Ridefort, Master of the Temple. #6mm #Crusades2023
The Hundred has got confusing. So this is Yorkshire v Surrey. But it's also Hyderabad v Mumbai.
As the World Cup and some unpleasant real life events start to fade into the rear-view mirror, there's some danger I might get round to posting about miniatures again.
Spain v Argentina. Half time and they've covered the pitch. Americans mind, they've probably confused football with cricket.
The new Minister for AI said he was excited to be part of the first ever Labour cabinet. He went on to say how excited he was to be working with Prime Minister Milliband and he looked forward to working with Britain's closest neighbours, Bolivia and Botswana.

France v England. Gusto went into that challenge with, um, enthusiasm.
Any chance 5live could stop covering the egg chasing and save me from Danny Murphy?
6mm Sengoku Jidai. Same figures, different command stands. Uesugi and Oda.
England's last 5 major tournament finishes are: Semi-final, Final, Quarter-final, Final, Semi-Final. The previous 5 were: Did not qualify, last 16, quarter final, group stage, last 16.
England v Argentina. Probably worth muting the word 'Falklands' for a few days.
So after 48 teams and 100 games, the four semi-finalists are the exact 4 teams seeded to those places. All 4 are previous winners. For a tournament mainly consisting of knockout games, World Cups tend to be very conservative.
England v Norway. An ancient rivalry rekindled. Harold Patrickson vs Haaland Hardrada.
I asked chatGPT to predict the result of the England game. England have a 60% chance of winning. But that goes up to 70% if they play Lineker and Charlton from the start.
I never really got as far as the ethical concerns about AI. I haven't got past "AI is shit at what it does" yet.
Anthony Zacharzewski@anthonyzach.be · 4w agoNothing says “this insurance company knows my country” than using an AI generated map of Belgium that puts Ghent in Wallonie, gives us two Namurs and a south coast on the Med.
Rematch of the Battle of Stamford Bridge tonight. And I'm not talking about Chelsea v Leeds in the 1970's.
