Craft your own dungeon tiles quickly and cheaply for D&D (The DM's Craft...
Sorry about the delay in posting (like, last year!?!), with holidays and all! Anyway, I found this series of videos on YouTube which is not only for RPGer's but wargamers as well to make a lot of terrian. Check out all of them, you might see something you like. Enjoy!

A quick post showing a new terrain piece I finished. I plan to use it for Dark Ages Historical and whatever it might be good for!

Gateway 2013 LOTR Photos are Ready!
If you are interested in seeing photos of these game please try this link - http://s207.photobucket.com/user/juggernought57/library/STRATEGICON%202013/Gateway%202013 If it doesn't work, here are the links to the individual folders for Saturday & Sunday http://s207.photobucket.com/user/juggernought57/library/STRATEGICON%202013/Gateway%202013/Osgiliath%20-LOTR%20Game%20Saturday http://s207.photobucket.com/user/juggernought57/library/STRATEGICON%202013/Gateway%202013/Osgiliath%20-LOTR%20Game%20Sunday The scenario was taken from The Two Towers Book, Scenario Nine - Osgiliath Pages 110-111. I added a few more Orcs and Gondorians into the mix. The Good Forces had to have Fordo and Sam had to escape down into the sewers for a win (Frodo only was a draw) and the Evil Forces win if any 2 Good Heroes are killed before Sam & Frodo escape or Frodo is killed. Frodo escaped both times by using the Ring. Sam managed to follow him down the culvert Saturday a turn after him for a win (Gollum didn't make it). Sunday was a draw as Sam couldn't get anywhere near the culvert due to the number of Orcs around it, but being invisible, Frodo could. Sunday also saw Gollum attack Frodo early in the game in order to get the Ring but got killed trying to do so. Lots of bad Gollum imitations were also done. TTFN

Osgiliath Terrain
Thought I would thrown on some shots of some of the Games Workshop Osgiliath Ruins I had done and now added a base and (hopefully) made them look a little better.

Back to the Sudan!
At least for dead/wounded figures. This is part of my plan to get old projects out of the way and stop jumping from "shiney to shiney"! These are for use with The Sword and Flame but can be used as well as anything else I care to marked dead/wounded with. So here are some shots, all figures are Old Glory.
There are more British figures in the production line (mostly wounded) so I will post more as they are finished. I also have wounded/dead Dervishes being worked on as well. Also in the backlog of stuff hanging around my workbench were some 15mm Dervish camel riders which are almost finished. They will add to my 15mm "Patrols in the Sudan 1885" (by Peter Pig) forces.

So Much for March....
Real world and other stuff....so I have not posted for a while. And I am not going to run a game at the next Strategicon game convention in May as I am not going to be able to stay at the hotel and may only be there one day. Why? $$$! Got to get my budget in line, wife is worried about money during the summer as she is a teacher and is doing summer school but it is less hours and therefore less $$. But I should be back in action for September. This will also give me time to get my Osgiliath terrain in better shape and fine tune the scenario.....
But enough of that! Hope about some WWI British in Africa miniatures!
British Officers
Riflemen
Sikhs!
I have finished my British and as of this post have finished my Germans, having just done the last of the Officers (photos to follow). I have also been working on more LOTR Orcs and trying nearly 100% to be a "good gamer" and finish up as much of my back-log of projects as I can AND try not to get more figures (HA!!). So with my WWI figures done I have gotten that one off the list. Currently I am finishing up a unit of 15mm Dervish Camel riders for "Patrols in the Sudan 1885" and some 25mm Dervish I had started to round out my Dervish forces in 25mm. I also have like, 6 old GW LOTR Warg Riders (the old metal ones) also nearly done. So hopefully my back-log will be a little less, but I am sure, never finished (My plastic Saxon Army for "Hail Caesar" just look at me with big, pup-dog eyes....
Next post, photos of the WWI German Officers!
