My forest goblins adjusted for #midgard. Around 300 pts.(trays a work in progress!) one thing I love about Midgard is the ability to give attributes to units so one can represent goblins who run in times of trouble to elves with great combat ability or dwarves who won't budge!

It's here! The expansion for Strength & Honour covering Alexander., Hannibal and the whole manipular Roman system. Twenty scenarios with a dozen basic lists that can be mixed and matched to unlock dozens of armies.

Today is the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Leyte Gulf.

The battle, fought from 23 to 26 October 1944, was both the largest naval battle of the Second World War, and the largest battle that the Royal Australian Navy has ever faced.

Right then, people, this is coming out next month, and if you can, then please get behind @sjwalker51 and support his first publication.
It's a great period, and it's well supported with some lovely 28mm figure ranges from Iron Duke Miniatures and the Perrys.

Today we remember Sergeant Bernard Lyle Smith, who was killed on this day in 1969 in South Vietnam when he attempted to rescue a fellow soldier in a minefield. He was 29 years of age.

Currently painting regular French infantry for #FrenchIndianwar slow progress on these but wanted to take some time on them. Kudos to #JohnBond wargame blog on how to paint them.

[Roger Abbott @RogerAbbott20]

Took far too long to paint these Orks for #OPR #Onepagerules but really happy with the end result. Bases are 3d printed fdm and help with the overall effect.
