In an attempt to kick start my VCBW campaign I re-read the 'Yuletide' edition of Miniature Wargames.
There was a very interesting scenario about a mini-campaign revolving around a river crossing. It is written in such a way that it is easily adapted to any period. After a little thought I shoehorned it into my concept for the 'Wirral Campaign'
I want this ready by Easter so a concerted effort to build up my forces must start now.
As a preamble, and as arty plays such a role, I wanted to get some templates up and running. So here is my concepts.
 |
| The stuff needed. |
 |
| Sealing the central hole |
Although the 'World in Flames' rule set has a smaller diameter for arty. I've used CDs as they are convenient and cheap. A suitable 'saving throw' house rule for those on the edge should get over the extra coverage.
 |
| Plasticine Sausages |
 |
| Rolled into circles. |
 |
| Hot Glue to Bases |
 |
| All three experiments |
 |
| PVA glue wash to harden |
 |
| Filler covering |
 |
| Hot glue for puddling |
Now leave to dry paint and base. They appear OK but not too happy with them. Let's see what happens in the future. I have some further ideas for these and others.
Catch you all soon.
LRQ.
