A big month for miniatures.
Had a great time at Historicon, thanks to all the GMs. I ran a convention game for the first time...it is a lot of work!
In a major milestone, I finished off selling the 15mm collections. Bitter sweet to move on from the original Katzenstein figures, but it does simplify things with one set of terrain. I may revisit the Kingdom in 28mm later.
Painting focus has been on several smaller catch up items. Quar, some VSF additions, and a batch of kitbashed sci-fi figures in the works.
Continued with tinkering with three sets of home rules. I am also making up up some rocky ground with bark. My big Historicon purchase was a big batch of trees from battlefield Terrain Concepts. Expensive, but they do look great.

PAINTING
A big battle with Quar figures using the detailed Battleground HD rules.
Opposing Crusader and Coftyran forces marched to secure a lone fruit tree on a nearby hill. Mayhem ensued.
 |
| From the Coftyran side |
 |
| The objective on the hill |
 |
| RCO gun gets set up to cover the road |
 |
| Coftyran's take some early casualties |
 |
| But the return fire is effective too |
 |
| Both forces advance on the hill |
 |
| Mortar and Torpedo fire suppress the RCO |
 |
| Coftyran flank squad gets caught in the open |
 |
| Casualties mount in the woods |
 |
| But the Crusader sniper is hit |
 |
| It is a race to the top |
 |
| Fire and maneuver |
 |
| Trading fire |
 |
| Deadly clash at the ridge |
 |
| Initially the Crusaders have the upper hand |
 |
| But the flank move is working |
 |
| RCO is still taking fire |
 |
| Crusader casualties mount |
 |
| The push around the flank can't be stopped |
 |
| One last rush to the hill |
 |
| The position in the woods is holding on |
 |
| RCO is abandoned, temporarily |
 |
| The climax approaches |
 |
| Crusader CO guns down the Coftyran Commander |
 |
| Standard bearers fight it out...Coftyran Victory! |
 |
| Three prisoners are taken by the Coftyran's |
 |
| Outflanked, the Crusaders pull back |
Casualties-
Crusaders: 8 KIA, 3 heavily wounded, 2 wounded, 3 POW = 16
Coftyrans: 7 KIA, 3 heavily wounded, 2 wounded= 12
Very close, the POWs and taking the fruit tree tip the scales in the Coftyran's favor.
