There hasn't been too much happening on the hobby side recently, although I did get a bit done over the last week. Things have just been generally difficult as well as very busy, and somewhat sapped my enthusiasm and energy levels for gaming (except thinking about it - that is always easy to do!)

Some 1810-13 Saxon Infantry (top-left base is a 'Frankenstein' French infantry base, made up of lots of odds and ends, plus a couple of ECW individually-based figures (for use as markers), plus a Polish WW2 sniper! All Baccus except for the Scotia sniper I think

More Saxons, with a couple of bases of Italian infantry on the left
|
|
And the full thing
|
|
Some Kubelwagens (GHQ?) and some H&R Germans with StG44, a couple of French vehicles, some generic Allied motobikes, some British Paras with flamethrowers, and some Polish with their light platoon mortar

Some German artillery, and some British Paras with satchel charges

Some Napoleonic Saxon infantry, plus some Commanded Shot for the Thirty Years War

Game-wise, I re-did the 1632 Battle of Lutzen in the Neil Thomas style for the C18 and
Polemos: Ruse de Guerre - a battle report for that soon - but otherwise game-time has been for family boardgames and RPGs. But hoping (as always!) to get more to the table soon...
You hit the ground running in the New Year!
ReplyDeleteHa! Yes. Although if I'd organized things better, this post would have fallen better into the last week of 2024...hey-ho, not the most important thing!
DeleteBest Wishes for the New Year. Look forward to reading about Lutzen.
ReplyDeleteThanks Norm, appreciated. And I know your blog is closed for comments at the moment, but liked your Christmas Day magazine and your end-of-year round-up.
DeleteA great way to start 2025 John! I know what you mean about finding the lack of motivation due to real life, aside from being able to ponder ideas for future games etc. Fingers crossed this will be a better year and looking forward to the Lutzen AAR:).
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve, appreciated. It is how I know that I still love gaming even when not much gaming is actually happening...
