Canada-based #TheMetalsCompany is working with Trump to mine the deep sea, despite global opposition. Canada must double-down to #StopDeepSeaMining and oppose the Mining Code that would open oceans to looting. @greenpeaceca.bsky.social Take Action: act.gp/3ZXB5ll
Two week ago the White Rock Gamers play Hookers opening attack at Antietam. 4 Union Brigades against 3 Confederate. To win we had to occupy both the Dunker church and Farm. I played Union.
Last night the White Rock Group played a made up scenario of Rapid Fire Reloaded Russian Front. The scenario was Germans hold 3 villages, Soviets take them. I played German using a battalion of Wehrmacht 20mm figures I painted up. The Russians rolled where to come on. They showed up behind our lines
I was very fortunate to play in Chris Leach’s Lake Trasimene game last night. Ruleset Control to Catastrophe by Chris Leach. Here are a few photos of the game. The Carthaginians boiled out of the woods, while the Gauls commanded by myself waited a turn. Then off we went!
This photo is Canadians fighting the Nazis in the Battle of Britain. We were a poor country of 11 million people. We built the 4th largest air force and navy in the world. When the Brits were being evacuated at Dunkirk we were already defending her shores. Message to fascists and tyrants: FAFO
When it came to the women in history we couldn’t be contained in the 150 person limit when I did it, so we had a part 2 for those wanting to network to the max
Bases finished. I go to conventions so the bases keep the models from banging into each other. Waiting on crew from AB Miniatures. #FestiveTankChallange2025
#FestiveTankChallange2025 Declaring these done, just Dullcoat, Decals and crew I ordered from AB Miniatures.
The best thing about Christmas is it gives me two extra days to find the £900 i need for the workshop rent this month so reposts appreciated heresyminiatures.com/shop (up to 33% off) heresyminiatures.etsy.com (buy any 3, get 30% off) ko-fi.com/heresyandy
Solid progress until my carpal tunnel got the best of me. Wash with Agrax, then dry brush with Vallejo Russian uniform and then a lightened Russian uniform. The kangaroos will be painted white. #Festivetankchallenge2025
If you don’t have one of these, buy one for yourself for Christmas, it’s well worth it. Anyone else agree?
Last night we played a game of Armati 2, Gauls vs Germans. The Germans are very tough and would give the Romans a run for their money.
There has been a rush on tickets this weekend and there are only a few left - so if you are planning to come to Winter Wonder Lard VI and have not bought your ticket yet don't delay to avoid disappointment... #SpreadTheLard
It's the most Wonderful Time of the Year. 🤶🎅 The Festive Figures are back, just for December. North Star, Artizan Design and Copplestone Castings. #northstarfigs #christmas
Our group The White Rock Gamers put on 3 games from the RFR scenario Operation Market Garden book scenarios #1, XXX Corps Breakout, Scenario 2, Attack of Panzer Brigade 107, and scenario 5 Charge of the Paras. I didn’t get many photos of the other games as I ran scenario #2. All three games ended

Oct 29th 1943 the Battle Of Nevel outside Velikiye Luki my wife's grandfather was killed. My wife's mother is the little girl on the left. He was drafted as a cook as he worked at the Maggi factory in Cologne. He obviously transferred to a line company later.
Game on Thursday Control to Catastrophe Caesar. War of the Roses. My continent Clifford the Butcher was on the left flank of the Lancastrians. Red and white figures. My opponent managed to get numerous hits from 2 turns of arrow storm, this would not be good when it came to melee.
An ACW made up battle. Confederates attacking a Union position. We had all light rifled artillery the Rebs had smoothbores.
