Half way through another year. Kept spending to a minimum, and finished selling off the 15mm fantasy collection. I also have buyers for some books and the HEXON terrain that I will deliver at Historicon.
I made a batch of roads that came out OK. I will try some rivers next. Tinkering with some homebrew rule sets using AI to help with organization and editing. It is helpful, but sometimes inserts changes that I don't want.

Plans for 2026
1) VSF: Plan phase 2 which will focus on more 3D printed additions and some terrain.
---Just started some more figures.
2) Attend the 3 HMGS conventions again.
---Attended Cold Wars, registered for Historicon
3) Keep spending <$3000. Consider selling the 15mm fantasy collection and massive 15mm fantasy unpainted stash.
---Spent too much, but still good for the year. Sold off the whole 15mm fantasy collection.
4) Restart the 6mm sci fi operational level project. Focus on 3D prints. Keep working on the rules.
---1st batch complete. Will work a second batch to make playable forces this year.
5) Host a club AVBCW game and a home AVBCW game.
---Done and done, and I will host a game at Historicon.
6) Backup small project: add single sprues of 28mm sci fi figures and use my Wargames Atlantic MMF subscription to print 3D figures for kitbashing.
---July will be a tinkering month to do some small batches of figures.
7) Terrain. It's time to make some improvements now that I have transitioned to almost 90% 28mm vs 15mm collections. 2026 should be the year of terrain. Reduce the painted figure count for the year, but make terrain. Consider selling the hexon terrain and moving to terrain cloths.
---I have made hills, roads, and some other small pieces. HEXON sold.
8) Next batch of Burrows and Badgers figures to keep up to date with the whole collection.
---Nothing released yet.
9) Continue Quar.
---Staying up to date.
