Blog Review

My plan this year it to post more. Including pictures.

I had several posts way back in 2014 regarding a German FallschirmJager army and the board game Descent. Thought a tiny update would be appreciated. They are gone.

I traded Descent and all the expansions for some figure painting by my friend I want to say around 2019. I know Descent 2.0 is now out but I have no plans to return to that market. It was a good game. Just not enough time.

Also sometime in 2022 (possibly at Hotlead 2022) I sold off my FJ to another friend. I kept all the armour and am building a German Grenadiers force instead. 
I thought it weird to have US 101, British Red Devils and German FJ.
I’ll probably try to hock the Red Devils at some point in the future too.

Productive

This week has proven rather productive as I applied sand onto the MDF/spackled bases. I also added some sticks (fallen logs) to 3 of the weapons bases. Although I forgot to take pictures.
Lastly, I primed the HQ, one Fallschirmjager section, the sniper team and the Panther.

Fallschirmjager Force

Alright, yesterday I based my Warlord Games German Fallschirmjager and built my 2 Panzer IVs.


The Germans are based on Sarissa Precision 2mm MDF bases 25mm in diameter. The weapons teams are 60mm in diameter. The white stuff is drywall spackle. 

There is an HQ, 3 11 man squads, a mortar+ spotter, a machine gun team, sniper team, panzer shriek team and flamethrower team, a panther, Stug IIIG and 2 panzer IVs.

I wanted to prime them today but it's raining :(
