<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 13.5pt;">Welcome to the first of my Warlords Of Erehwon "Science
Fantasy" beta warband lists. These lists, while not official in ANY way,
were built after reverse engineering the Warlords Of Erehwon points system.
Because of this, and because they were repointed using Rick Priestley's official point system when he released them, these lists should balance with the other
"official" warband lists that Rick Priestley has released on
his </span><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><a href="https://thisgaminglife.uk/">website</a>.</span><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 13.5pt;"> This should allow you to play against normal fantasy armies. <o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="color: white; font-family: "times"; font-size: 13.5pt;">Why "Science Fantasy?" Well, my first
miniature wargaming loves involved games that mixed the genres of science
fiction, fantasy and modern wargames and when Rick created Warlords Of Erehwon
it was to provide players with a miniatures agnostic game system that allowed
them to play with the old fantasy models in their cupboard. I still own
mountains of models that fall somewhere between sci-fi and fantasy from my
earliest days as a wargamer and I want to be able to dust them off and use them
when playing WoE as well. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

to create forces using their old models. I have gone out of my way to not
change a single rule in the game and all of the following lists are meant to be
used in conjunction with the regular Warlords Of Erehwon ruleset. This is why,
for example, psychics use magic... they are just mages under a different
name. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white; font-family: "times"; font-size: 13.5pt;">Because I did not want to change the rules to
make shooting any different but because I wanted guns to be a more viable
choice in these lists, I paid the points to increase the accuracy profile of
every model in every list. Additionally every ranged weapon in the lists below
are based on existing weapons profiles in the normal game. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Today I am back to talk about another of my favourite G.I. Joe vehicles. The VAMP was the second Joe vehicle that I collected as a kid and over the years it is easily one of the toys that I played with most. Naturally, it was one of the first models that I wanted to add to this army.<br />
<br />
I got this model from Shapeways and even though it is made from a low quality material, once painted, I think it came up nicely! The sponge method used to represent the chipped whitewash hid the worst of the materials sins, thankfully.<br />

Like the MOBAT, the VAMP, was featured heavily in the pages of the comic and its driver, Clutch, is one of my top ten Joe's of all time.<br />
<br />
Over the years there have been a huge number of VAMP variants, used by both Joe and Cobra forces. The weapon systems on these vehicles also varied dramatically. When painting this one, I left the weapons off the back deck on purpose while I figure out how I am going to use it on the tabletop. In the meantime, I will use it as a jeep or a wheeled artillery tow. <br />
<br />

I did this despite the roof and doors being features of the VAMP MK2 (which was tan).<br />
<br />
I definitely need to source some fuel cans for the rack in the back.<br />
<br />
I have three of these models already printed plus a Mk 1 Diecast kit, a few Cobra Stingers and some "What-if" trucks made using the cabs from this iconic vehicle.<br />
<br />
You will definitely be seeing more VAMP's soon!<br />

Ahhh, The MOBAT. From my earliest days as a G.I.JOE fan I have been in love with this tank! Featured prominently in issue number one of the comic, the MOBAT was an integral part of many of the original comic missions.<br />
<br />
This tank has a huge nostalgia factor for me because, while it was not one of my first Joe vehicles (Those were the RAM and the VAMP for those wondering), I did get it for Christmas the first year I collected G.I. Joe toys from one of my favourite uncles (who had the forethought to also give me batteries). I drove this bad boy over piles of books in my Grandma's living room for hours. It was awesome! Yes, I am child of the 80's!<br />

I think that the sponge chipping method worked particularly well on this vehicle given the number of wide blank plates it has as part of its armoured hull.<br />
<br />
I started by painting the whole model white before black lining/washing the crevices a dark grey. I then repanelled the white back in to make the white neat before using blister pack sponge to apply the green to represent the green "underneath" the whitewash.<br />
<br />
In Bolt Action terms I plan on using this as a Pershing, which is the American reskin of the Tiger tank in the rules. Given the size of the MOBAT's gun and its armour, I think that that suits.<br />
<br />

To the left you can see what it came like. It is a 3D print of a file found of Thingiverse that was printed in resin.<br />
<br />
Only taking a few minutes to clean up before priming, this kit was a dream to paint up and prepare for the tabletop.<br />
<br />
I absolutely adore this tank and I am now considering painting up another in the Crimson Guard alternative paint scheme that was sold by SEARS in the 80's. I think it would look ace in red and black!<br />

"weird."<br />
<br />
One of those weird and wacky contraptions is the Kodiak Walker for the US forces. Looking suspiciously like the old Madcat mech from Battletech, this beastie carries an autocannon and a pair of heavy machine guns in each of its two arms. It Bolt Action/K'47 terms it throws out buckets of dice, all of which have an armoured piecing value, making this the perfect tool to stop transports, light vehicles and scary troops like werewolves, zombies and giant mutant bear men in their tracks.<br />
<br />
This model was one of my first experiments as a painter using blister pack sponge as a means of "chipping" whitewashed armour. Though it is not perfect, I am quite pleased with the results.<br />
<br />
Just looking at this model gets me excited to place Konflikt '47 again. Might have to set up another game sooner than later!<br />

Now this is a very controversial vehicle in Bolt Action for several reasons.<br />
<br />
First of all, the IS-3 was probably introduced into the war so late that the Germans had already surrendered. While many were sent to fight Japanese forces in Manchuria, it has never been actually confirmed if this beast ever saw actual combat during WW2.<br />
<br />
Second of all, this tank has the highest armour value of any tank in the game. The armour to its front is one higher than super heavy tanks meaning that it can and does often survive direct hits from most AT guns in the game. The last time I used this tank it took repeated shots to its front from a King Tiger and outside of pins and scratches to its paint... it rolled away unscathed. It is TOUGH!<br />
<br />
Third and last, it is one of the most expensive tanks in the game. Coming in at 600 points (at regular), this thing is the definition of points inefficient. Especially since it only carries a heavy AT gun. Regardless, if you have a small army and you need to fill out points to get your force onto the table or if you just like armoured rarities, this baby is for you. Plus, the sharp casting and solid detail on this Warlord resin kit is fantastic!<br />
<br />

(Some Support Vehicles)Here are a few of the support vehicles that painted up last year to accompany my winter Soviet WW2 army.<br />
<br />
This truck is made by Rubicon and comes with two alternative beds. I used the closed canvas top on this truck so that I could use the open bed on another truck that I will post later. Despite my... reluctance to build plastic kits (I prefer the sharp lines and quick assembly of resin models), I really do like the finished look of this model.<br />
<br />
I have also included pictures of an early Soviet armoured car and a Komsomolets armoured tractor. In Bolt Action terms the armoured car is a cheap order dice that zips around the board with light machine gun. Likewise, the Komsomolets is there to serve as a cheap armoured transport that also mounts a light machine gun. You can find out more about this vehicle <a href="http://www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/soviet/komsomolets_artillery_tractor.php">here</a>.<br />

A couple of years ago, the extremely talented Jakob Lotz made a custom SU-76i model out of the hull of a Panzer III and plasticard. I painted it to match my existing <a href="http://landomisfittoys.blogspot.com/2019/01/jtfm-su-152.html">Soviet SU-152</a>, using a chipped white washed effect. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I could not be more pleased with the results in the end. The BTD Soviet Sailor is to show scale.</div>

<br />
I recently started experimenting with a light box that I picked up a while back on Ebay. I thought I might share some pictures of some of the stuff that I have been painting over the last year or two.<br />
<br />
First up is a JTFM made Soviet SU-152. I bought this kit as a miscast and rescued it with a little green stuff and a little TLC. I am pretty happy with how it came out in the end.<br />
<br />
The Brigade games snowsuit model is shown for scale.<br />

<b>Army Lists:</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Given that this event is geared towards fun, inclusive play and that it is designed to welcome newer players to Melbourne's Bolt Action scene, I have fairly high standards for listing for this event. As a result I will be rather draconian with list submissions, though there are no units restrictions for this event, outside of the fun ones listed below, I would like to emphasise that this is an fun, casual event. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I would like to encourage people to experiment and play with lists that are fun to play with and to play against. <b><i><u><span style="color: red;">This is NOT a win at all costs event</span>.</u></i></b> <u>The TO reserves the right to ask players to resubmit army lists that are considered... perhaps "too hard" for the spirit of the event. </u></div>

<u><br /></u></div>

<u>If you are unsure, please ask. </u></div>

<h4>
<ul>
<li>All armies for this event should be no larger than 1111 points. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Forces must be made up using the generic reinforced platoons rules and armies CANNOT contain more than one platoon. <i>That is right, your army has to be one and only one platoon. </i></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>To give players variety given these restrictions, players may choose one bonus unit from one of the 0-1 restricted units in a generic platoon but this bonus unit cannot duplicate an entry already in the list.</li>
</ul>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>For example: You <b>could not</b> take dual GAZ AA trucks in a list because they would be duplicates.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>You <b>could</b> take a medium and a heavy mortar on the other hand as they are different units. </i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>You <b>could not</b> take a Tiger one with a pintle MMG and a Tiger 1 without a pintle MMG as these are the same unit with a different option added on. If you have any questions. Please ask.</i></div>

Given the purpose of the event, we will have 9 trophies on offer at this event. Most of these have nothing to do with winning games on the tabletop, that is intentional. That said,
there will be plenty of prizes in addition to this that players will be
eligible to win. Prizes will be randomly drawn after the trophies have been handed out.<o:p></o:p></div>

As stated above, Operation Bear is a three game tournament.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Each round will last 2 hours.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In Round 1 players will be chosen at random
but grudges are possible at player request. We will be using 3<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>missions over the course of the day. Two will
be objective based missions and one will be based on "Meeting Engagement" (where you win by "killing" more order dice than you
loose).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is shaping up to be Melbourne's largest Bolt Action event ever. Because of this, as a TO, I will be not be playing as a "gumby" if we have an odd number of players. I will endeavour to have a gumby army on the day if we need one but if this is not possible, a buy might be necessary. Should a player end up with a buy, they will receive the points as though they had won the round. As a TO, I will not be entering or be eligible to win any prizes or awards at this event.</div>

Halloween brought us the long awaited expansion/sourcebook for Konflikt ’47 called Resurgence. The game, though great, needed updating if it was going to come into line with Bolt Action Version 2, as K’47 was based on the original BA game. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Turns out Resurgence is an apt name for this book as it goes beyond aligning K’47 with its parent game… in the way it adopts new rules and leaves others behind… it becomes something… new. Different. Better.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>

Tank was one of my favourite G.I. JOE vehicles. Maybe because it was black or that it held 4 figures (two on the step on the back) or maybe because it just <i>looked</i> cool. I don't know. I loved it.<br />
<br />
Actually, in retrospect, the fact that it was also one of the first COBRA vehicles I owned probably helped. It got played with constantly to face off against the armour of my Joe forces but it definitely went beyond that though because it was a mainstay of my COBRA forces. The fact that the HISS tank was used as the premier COBRA vehicle in countless issues of the comics probably helped too.<br />
<br />
Regardless, I knew that if I was going to make a COBRA themed force in 28mm, I knew I would need a HISS Tank... or two... I always wanted a second one as a kid so I could recreate the night fight from issue #16 of the original comic. Anyway, after several good Google searches, I discovered that there was an alternative to the <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/product/5ZMPXESXA/gv06-28mm-sentry-tank">Shapeways 3D printed HISS</a> that was not only significantly cheaper than the printed one but was also made from smooth plastic (no graininess). This kit is also an almost perfect match size wise to the 3D printed one. You can find it on Amazon <a href="https://www.amazon.com/G-I-Joe-Cobra-H-I-S-S-Light/dp/0762454520">HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
Seeing the price I may have gone a little off the deep end and ordered a few... OK... I ordered 8 of them. I may have a HISS tank problem! lol<br />
<br />
This is what comes in the box:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn4nhcdzIw7glbufGClxVlkHNc_3ZwMkhMWS57Ly1eAFpfZgU2vixZVZOyjEGcHUuu25-P6-i3fekftFINBu7iGPfCXGWj83KdSgYxrNm9O4To9Jooy53YfslSyjdXqJt9eXtOL3_-qy8/s1600/IMG_9829.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1215" data-original-width="1600" height="484" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn4nhcdzIw7glbufGClxVlkHNc_3ZwMkhMWS57Ly1eAFpfZgU2vixZVZOyjEGcHUuu25-P6-i3fekftFINBu7iGPfCXGWj83KdSgYxrNm9O4To9Jooy53YfslSyjdXqJt9eXtOL3_-qy8/s640/IMG_9829.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I love that it not only comes with miniature versions of the stickers that went on the original kit but it also comes with a miniature of the vehicle blueprints that the original JOE vehicles came with. These little touches made the kid in me very happy.<br />
<br />
Now, this "mini HISS" does have a few problems that the original kit also had that would look funny on a 28mm tabletop. First of all, the tank has no clearance whatsoever. Its hull basically rubs on the ground. I fixed that by cutting the front hull plate considerably back and covering the giant vents and gap between hull pieces with a piece of white plasticard. I wanted the hull to stick out slightly from the tracks to help differentiate the different front parts of the tank.<br />
<br />
I also filled in the large gap in its nose with green stuff.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGVw4RGF51aa_xwGgCyI_p3JDBAcNrnct9fyFYIcNtseeOBEKw4EqMP9bKRXheDFuokpCFq4GeOn-OzEONMTVlJC0jn3WyJG59aCZWP3lSCh7Zzhc9w-6QukkdsaMERWp3kXCohmkfeYQ/s1600/IMG_9830.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1093" data-original-width="1600" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGVw4RGF51aa_xwGgCyI_p3JDBAcNrnct9fyFYIcNtseeOBEKw4EqMP9bKRXheDFuokpCFq4GeOn-OzEONMTVlJC0jn3WyJG59aCZWP3lSCh7Zzhc9w-6QukkdsaMERWp3kXCohmkfeYQ/s640/IMG_9830.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Next up, I cut the hull on the back on the vehicle to match the front. In the process I lost the cool trailer hitch but I think it looks way better. I also used a hobby knife to smooth the old lines and gaps between pieces.<br />
<br />
I also placed a thin piece of plasticard along the hull above the passenger step to cover up one of the worst gaps on the kit. You can see this below.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikF0oBRxfqm1Nv5SLQT5Uwx-AwUzb9Cys5ztVrdsSqzVK1MUru3y9DsFzJHscBhEN4DhYlmE6ltoqCQn36H_6JuWoCa3j-1dUdrFQ3IA5qh0BWXCKjAoTBYwENSDUcQyh6J59bfdL9caE/s1600/IMG_9831.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1021" data-original-width="1600" height="408" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikF0oBRxfqm1Nv5SLQT5Uwx-AwUzb9Cys5ztVrdsSqzVK1MUru3y9DsFzJHscBhEN4DhYlmE6ltoqCQn36H_6JuWoCa3j-1dUdrFQ3IA5qh0BWXCKjAoTBYwENSDUcQyh6J59bfdL9caE/s640/IMG_9831.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I then glued down the canopy for easier painting and increased durability. I also used the flat of my hobby blade to trim the excess flash off the nose and the side of the guns. Seen below.<br />
<br />

<br />
Some of you will notice that there is one key difference between the "mini HISS" and the full sized original. Its guns. The cannons on the mini are almost as thick as the full sized HISS's gun barrels. They are huge because the mini has LED lights and speakers build in so that when you press the red button on the top, the guns light up and the tank makes a gun noise. I was going to cut these off but, in the end, I just liked the idea of having those features would just be too cool to trim off.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The last thing that I did was to add a gunner to the cupola. I used the bodies from Warlord Games Japanese Infantry and arms from various Warlord plastic kits.<br />
<br />
Next up I definitely need to add stowage to a few HISS's to differentiate them and perhaps make a command tank or two using spare heads. I am thinking a HISS with Cobra Commander and possibly another with Destro in the gunner's nest could be cool.<br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I have always hated waiting
for things. As a kid, I still remember saving up my proof of purchases from
G.I.Joe action figures to send away for a limited release “Duke” (the only one
that existed at the time). I checked the mailbox everyday for months
(literally) hoping that my “Duke” would arrive and just when I had given up
hope… He showed up in a nondescript plain brown cardboard box. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">In the end, he was a fairly
ugly figure in retrospect but, man, was I excited when I ripped open that box!
I played with him daily for weeks afterwards like no other figure. I am sure
that the waiting added value in my mind.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

That said, this has given me a lot of time during breaks to consider the army and how I am going to put it together.<br />
<br />
In my last post I showed pictures of 18 Cobra troopers that I had built out of Warlord Games' Blitzkrieg Germans. Since then I have acquired another pile of these models second hand that I can convert up when the time allows. I have also found another baggie of 10 metal assault rifles from the Assault Group to convert these guys over. Sooooo progress is slowly being made.<br />
<br />
What I really wanted to show today though was the vehicles. Infantry aside, this is what my force looks like at the moment:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwUwGQ-jBGwr7sGXBAbm2MgbkudvyTk38FaTLrek9_2cl1GAlOjEmgLi617BmNRhsqHk93vZIISQjPRU6Da8pDVR2PtUiP-_WPMry_stq7YTryLnwBwmC0agzVw1Uoml0WVBtnDaRYa6g/s1600/IMG_9613.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="517" data-original-width="839" height="394" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwUwGQ-jBGwr7sGXBAbm2MgbkudvyTk38FaTLrek9_2cl1GAlOjEmgLi617BmNRhsqHk93vZIISQjPRU6Da8pDVR2PtUiP-_WPMry_stq7YTryLnwBwmC0agzVw1Uoml0WVBtnDaRYa6g/s640/IMG_9613.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The white VAMP jeep and the cycle above are from the <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/shops/arcticskunk">Arctic Skunk Shapeways store</a>. I also have a HISS tank from that shop. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here are a few side by side comparison to Warlord Games Bolt Action models to show the scale of these vehicles. The VAMP or the COBRA version in this case, the Stinger, is almost a perfect match size wise as a Horch field car which is convenient because that is what I had originally considered using it as. But converting it to look like it hold more than two people is the subject of another blog post. </div>

<br />
This also give you an idea of my painting style and the level of painting I plan of using on this army. I tend to use a very cartoony style that I think "pops" on the tabletop.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The VAMP/Stinger has always been one of my favourite GI JOE vehicles and I cannot wait to paint this bad boy up!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I got a RAM motorcycle at the same time as the VAMP and I am not sure if I am going to paint it up in COBRA colours or if I will hold onto it until I start my opposition GI JOE forces.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The details on these models are great but they do require a little sanding to smooth out the finish. You can see the graininess on the RAM below.<br />

<br />
The "Arctic Skunk," 3D printed HISS tank is a better kit with more detail than the mini-toys (that I have 4 of in the picture at the top of this post) but I can get 4 of the HISS toys (which are almost the perfect scale) for the same price as one white 3D print. Plus to be honest the toys are more durable too. I have been playing around with plasticard and green stuff to make the toys more "realistic" looking and I will post how I am modifying them soon.<br />

If you look carefully at the picture of my 4 toys, one has a smashed turret. I broke one in storage and that has me thinking about turning one of my HISS tanks into a 28mm version of one of these:<br />

Much to my Mother's chagrin, from the very earliest of ages, I was obsessed with GI JOE as a kid. Over the many years of my childhood, I accumulated a massive collection of the action figures and vehicles but these were not the root of my interest on the subject.<br />
<br />
I loved the comic books. The often gritty and witty writing of Larry Hama captivated me. I bought and played with the toys that fell in love turning those brightly coloured dog eared pages. It drove my parents crazy!<br />
<br />
In hindsight, it is easy to see that this behaviour laid the groundwork for my later love of toy soldiers and wargaming in general. I guess I just never grew up! <br />
<br />
A few years ago I had an interesting epiphany when looking at <a href="https://www.shapeways.com/shops/arcticskunk?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIktePy--31gIV04doCh3B9Ae7EAAYASAAEgIkbfD_BwE">Arctic Skunk's Shapeways store</a>. What if I could merge my love of table top war-games AND my childhood love of GI JOE? To that end I started slowly acquiring the bits and pieces I might need to create a COBRA themed army. I figured it would be an easier place to start than a GI JOE force comprised of one off individual uniforms and colour schemes. Besides COBRA often had the cooler looking gear and vehicles! (In my opinion anyway)<br />

</tbody></table>
I should probably say that it is the end goal of this project to create a playable army that I can use on the tabletop. I am planning to use it in games of Bolt Action or Konflikt '47 using the Germans rules (they have assault rifles).<br />
<br />
I thought that the easiest place to start this project would be with the basic COBRA trooper, which happened to be the first GI JOE action figure that I ever owned. I thought I would go for a slightly more modern look than the classic 80's uniform and chose this more "tactical" uniform style to base my soldiers on.<br />

I spent a fairly ridiculous amount of time trying to find a 28mm "perfect match." Frankly, I was being too pedantic and the project hung around in limbo for years. I found quite a few reasonable matches using various "modern"miniature ranges but I always came back to needing to replace the heads with the elongated helmets/facemasks to give the troopers their signature look. This lead me again and again to back to German WW2 plastic miniatures. This eventually got me thinking and after a friend gifted me a pile of mostly assembled <a href="https://store.warlordgames.com/products/blitzkrieg-german-infantry-plastic-boxed-set">Blitzkrieg Germans from Warlord Games</a>. I thought I would try something different. Using the Germans as the basic trooper and change the weapons. I did this for a variety of reasons, the biggest being that working with plastics makes converting and repositioning models much easier. This prevents the army from becoming a million repetitions of the same four dudes (something that I have hated in the past).<br />
<br />
To make a long story short, I shaved the helmets down (to resemble the COBRA ones) on these existing Germans and I trimmed the excess pouches and bags off the back of the models. Before I paint these I need to add more modern looking pouches but that is a hurdle that I have not had to cross yet.<br />
<br />
I also switched their arms and weapons around using metal assault rifles and RPG's from The Assault Group to give the models more dynamic poses and modern weapons... After all COBRA doesn't issue bolt action rifles to their goons!<br />
<br />
The end result ended up looking like this:<br />

<br />
At the moment I only have three squads of six troopers but as I get my paws on more assault rifles and modern submachine guns, that number will grow.<br />

I am also experimenting with adding liquid green stuff face-masks. My bottle of LGS was dried out so I added water to get it going again but I am afraid that it is too thin now to obscure the mouths on these guys so I will have to buy a new bottle on the weekend before adding a second layer.<br />

You might also notice the light machine gunner in each squad carries a SAW. This is a nod to a figure from much later in the GI JOE range than I plan of covering in this force... The SAW Viper. Plus, the ammo boxes look cool!</div>

I was also luck enough to get in on someone else's private commission when they had a tiny run of COBRA personalities sculpted up, and even more luckily, these scale perfectly with my troopers. </div>

I guess when I said that I had been playing a LOT of Bolt Action over the last couple of years, I was neglecting to mention another game that I have been spending a fair amount of time on. Malifaux.<br />
<br />
Though I am not normally one to play skirmish style games, the rich background, tongue and cheek humour and insanity of the Malifaux world really resonated with me as a hobbyist. Besides, it was fantastic to paint something that wasn't khaki or drab greens (too much WW2 hobby makes Brad a boring boy).<br />

As a former bald, bouncer on Bourbon St (a million years ago it seems) the character of Mr. Graves calls to me on a very basic level. He is the guy lurking on the right in the picture above. He is linked thematically with the crooked casino owner Jacob Lynch which made his crew my first port of call.<br />
<br />

<br />
You might be wondering about the bright translucent purple parts of models. Wyrd Miniatures makes alternative versions of their models that sometimes include translucent plastics. I really wanted to paint up one of these crews and so I hunted down the "Nightmare" version of the Dark Debts box. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirsgDnN-HbdzpTk7yXeMmcZN4KqIjohvgriSxl62yZvXFRhyphenhyphenxtOPfUFUSEZLc9V9SHE6W8otNmxvY6BLbeSXiX9eFUMknlyWWrfY1oyaHSIac-mx5YOhJbwrQSLw6ofisUG4K0wtoHQz8/s1600/IMG_6268.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirsgDnN-HbdzpTk7yXeMmcZN4KqIjohvgriSxl62yZvXFRhyphenhyphenxtOPfUFUSEZLc9V9SHE6W8otNmxvY6BLbeSXiX9eFUMknlyWWrfY1oyaHSIac-mx5YOhJbwrQSLw6ofisUG4K0wtoHQz8/s640/IMG_6268.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
After assembling these models I carefully masked off the parts I wanted to stay purple using Blu-Tac before priming the models normally using black GW primer. In the case of the Hungering Darkness (the giant teeth monster above), I used a brush-on primer before painting his few bits and pieces.<br />

<br />
I used drab greys, blacks and browns to paint these models as I wanted the purples to "pop" and I am really pleased with the end results!<br />

In order for me to hit the 50 Soul Stone limit to play most tournament games I need to paint a few more models. I have two primed Wastrels, two base coated Stitched Together and a 70% finished Beckoner in the wings to get this crew across the line. I want to try and get these done in the next few weeks around my World Eater project. I just need school holidays to hit so I have time. I cannot wait!</div>

<h1>
Forces:</h1>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Players must use a 1,000 requisition point force, consisting of one
or more generic Reinforced Platoons, as presented in the Bolt Action rulebook
(page 124). These forces must be selected using one of the ‘Armies of’ books or
official PDFs. See <i>Composition </i>section
below.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
<b><u>NOTE: Players should use only
the generic reinforced platoons, not theatre selectors</u></b>. <o:p></o:p></div>
<h1>
Army Lists:</h1>
<div class="Body1">
The
players must write down the army list they are going to use for the duration of
the entire tournament. Each player must submit a copy of their list to the
Tournament Organiser Brad Morin via <u>whatisabattle@gmail.com</u> by <b><u>5th April 2014 midnight.</u></b> The
army list is public and the opponent can always look at it and ask you
questions about your force. The same list must be used for all games. See <i>Composition </i>section below.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
Special characters will <u>NOT</u> be used.</div>
<h1>
Games:</h1>
<div class="Body1">
Players
are given <b><u>2 hours and 30 minutes</u></b>
in which to complete their games. There is a break of at least 15 minutes
between games to allow the TOs to enter scores and prepare for the next round.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
The first
round will be a random draw. If you are drawn with a regular gaming partner
speak to the TO who will try to match you up with another player. An effort
will be made to match Axis against Allies in the first round. Games 2-3 will be
run using a "Swiss Chess" system; you will never play the same
opponent twice. In the first round players may choose to grudge another player.
If the player accepts the grudge then both players will be matched in the first
round. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
Before
each game you should exchange names and army lists with your opponent. You
should also provide an opportunity for your opponent to ask about any of the
special rules for your army. After this has been done take discuss the terrain
on the table to confirm how each piece will be played. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
Play the
game in good spirit, and do not stall for time. Any person deemed stalling for
time to avoid a loss or cement a win will be penalised heavily. Games must be
finished on or before the two and a half hour deadline; warnings will be given
for 30 minutes, 15 minutes and 5 minutes. If necessary, you may have to
calculate victory conditions / victory points from the end of an earlier turn
than the one prescribed to end the game, but you cannot run overtime. Please
play briskly and remind your opponent if they are taking too long. This is to
ensure that we can enter all results and determine the next round so that we do
not fall behind schedule.<b> </b>If a
player is consistently failing to finish games they will be deducted 3 points
for each game that they did not finish, this will be enforced consistently. We
strongly encourage players to take lists that they can finish games with. If
you are concerned that you may not be able to finish games please consider
taking a list with a moderate number of order dice or models. <o:p></o:p></div>
<h1>
Rules Disputes:<o:p></o:p></h1>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
All rules
disputes should be resolved in one of three ways. Either look in the
appropriate rulebook, roll a D6 for it, or ask a TO. The TO will either show
you the relevant passage in the appropriate rulebook, or ask you to roll a D6
for it. Just because you disagree on a rule does not mean your opponent is a
bad sport. It is in the way they handle the dispute, and accepts if they are
wrong, that you can see their bulging sportsmanship. Many people have different
interpretations or house rules that are not used at tournaments, and these will
be resolved as stated above. The TO's word is final, and arguing after a
decision has been made may incur penalties.<o:p></o:p></div>
<h1>
Scoring:<o:p></o:p></h1>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
Conquest
Bolt Action will use a system of scoring that you may not have encountered in
other BA events. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
Parts of
the tournament will be run as peer based scoring - score sheets will be
provided and must be filled out after each battle. Breakdown of scores will be
100 points for battle, 20 for painting, 25 for sportsmanship and 30 for army
composition and, for a total of 175). You should ideally be getting full sports
and painting marks.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">

<div class="Body1">
The

Painting: </h1>
<div class="Body1">
Armies
that are completely painted will be awarded 20 bonus points at the start of the
tournament. If the army has any unpainted models in it, it will receive 0
points. This is effectively a Yes or No question - there are no partial
rewards. Models must be painted to a basic standard, displaying at least 3
different colours, and the bases must be completed with appropriate material.<o:p></o:p></div>

After the
first game players should set up their armies on the table they're on for
judging in the Players' Choice painting competition. After the lunch break each
player votes for their first, second and third favourite armies. Unlike the
bonus points mentioned above, this vote has no bearing on the overall result of
the tournament, but will be used to select the winner of the Best Army prize at
the end of the tournament.<o:p></o:p></div>

Models to
be used in the tournament must visibly represent what they're meant to be .This
doesn't mean you have to use the exact existing Warlord miniatures for a given

should be WWII. If you have any queries about whether something would be
acceptable, feel free to contact us.<o:p></o:p></div>

After the

Composition:</h1>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">We expect all players to be of the maturity and calibre of gamer
that they know what is acceptable and what is not. We, the judges, like armies
that have a good solid troops core, as well as a great theme that is
within the BA ethos. We also acknowledge that with such a young game people may
still be experiment or try out new list options. Don’t hesitate to contact the
TOs regarding your list if you have any questions before submission. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body1">
A panel
of judges will give your army list a score out of 30, to reflect how powerful
it is. The more powerful, the lower the score. This is to ensure that no matter
how hard or soft your army is, you will have a chance of winning the event. At
the end of the midway point of the event (between rounds 3 and 4) half of your
composition score will be added to your score, the other half will be added at
the end of the tournament. This is to stop people getting particularly large
jumps at the end of the tournament and to ensure that the top contenders for
the event are playing against one another.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">“There will be no guidelines given for what constitutes a ‘standard’
tournament list, and this is deliberately left up to the judgment of the panel.
This is because players often use guidelines as a basis for disagreeing with
the score they receive. Regardless of how biased you think the judges are, they
are guaranteed to be less biased than the owner of the list, and hence their
decision will not be argued. The panel consists of some of the most experienced
Bolt Action players and have the best idea as to what a standard tournament
list is.” - Thank you to Chris “Egg” Cousin’s for your 2011 Empire in Flames
players pack, from which this was shamelessly plagiarised. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="Body1">
This
composition is designed specifically to accommodate the diverse range of
expectations within the Australian BA community. There are no hard restrictions
on list construction. Conversely players who prefer historically themed lists
will less emphasis on competitiveness will be rewarded. However, lists that are
deemed to go too far or contradict the spirit of the event will be asked to
resubmit. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body1">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">“You should be bringing an army list that YOU would be pleased to
see across the table. It should contain a mix of units and unit types where possible.
Balance and variety are what we would like to see in armies. However, the final
decisions for composition relate purely to the efficacy of the armies, and
while you can request a reason for the score you have been given, scores will
NOT be altered once they have been awarded.” – Thanks Egg!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Helvetica;">Your
objective in <i>demolition</i> is to reach
the enemy position and destroy it with explosives your men have been issued
with. Strong enemy resistance is expected, so you must attack in force but do
leave a portion of your force behind in order to defend our own artillery
emplacements.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Helvetica;">Both players
roll a die. The highest scorer picks a side of the table and places their base
in their set-up zone at least six inches from the table edge. The other player
then places their base in their set up zone at least six inches from his table
edge, in the same way. A single objective marker is also set up in the centre
of the board. The bases are placed before any troops are set up and before
reserves and outflanking is nominated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Helvetica;">Ideally these
'bases' are represented by a model command post, but could be anything that
looks like a tactically important position such as a building or hilltop etc. A
base can simply be a objective marker if you wish. A recommend size is 50mmx50mm
or 40mmx40mm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

These troops count towards the units deployed. Each side nominates up to half
of their army as their starting force. Starting with the winner of the dice
roll each player takes it in turns to place a unit within 12 inches of their
table edge. Any units not deployed are left in reserve or out flanking.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

centre objective an infantry model must move within 3 inches of it without any
enemy infantry being in this range. Your unit does not need to remain within 3
inches once an objective is captured. Unlike the two bases an enemy can claim
the centre objective that has already been claimed by the enemy. If a friendly
and enemy unit are within 3 inches of the objective at the end of the game it
counts as contested and neither side can claim the victory point.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Helvetica;">Both players
roll a die. The highest scorer decides whether to be attacker or defender. The
defender picks table side. There are five objective markers to be placed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Helvetica;">The defender
places one objective marker in the middle of the table or as close as possible
to the centre. Starting with the defender, each player then takes turns to
place an objectives marker no closer than 12 inches from their deployment edge
and no closer than 12 inches to any other objective marker. Only infantry units
can claim objectives. Objectives cannot be moved.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Helvetica;">An objective
is claimed when an infantry unit comes into contact and no enemy infantry unit
is closer than three inches. Your unit does not need to remain within three
inches once an objective is captured. If a friendly and enemy unit are within
three inches of the objective it counts as contested and neither side can claim
the victory point.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

spotters / etc can use the hidden set-up rules after each side has deployed.
These troops count towards the half deployed. Each side nominates up to half of
their army as their starting force. Starting with the defender each player
takes it in turns to place a unit within 12 inches of their table edge. Any
units not deployed are left in reserve or out flanking.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="text-align: center;">Old Man Morin here: With the Bolt Action Grand Tournament quickly approaching (this weekend) and after getting buried with work I, Old Man Morin had to shelve my Germans... AGAIN! Though I got really close to getting them done, there was just no way.... Luckily, about the time I came to this crushing realisation, Warlord Tobu informed me that he finished the Artizan greatcoat Americans he had been painting for me. Now I asked Tobie to leave the bases because I wanted to do a Battle of the Bulge, mud and snow thing with the bases. He put a basic texture on them for me and left them dark brown. PERFECT! I started by dry brushing the brown a lighter brown to give the brown some depth. I did not go too light because I wanted there to be a nice contrast with the white of the snow later. Below you can see the dark brown in the from and the dry brushed lighter browns in the back.</span></div>

<br />
<br />
From there I painted white splotches onto the bases. This is a necessary step to ensure a nice white snow later.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Next I pulled out my magic jar of snow pumice. I love this stuff. I have used it for a bunch of armies and I am not even close to having used half the of container. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW8_eWE1rjKfqm4KMYRiL4y2frBKOWr1REJ_w_TI_CiSNzylqMTUojylHqwYwvDgVbvDhSHk7mQtFt6UjTuLQyHmeqJakEw-iXgsTVITnmcKq4DHFDlzq95HL1D2JP_aaDEe5vIMG5nhQ/s1600/IMG_2018.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW8_eWE1rjKfqm4KMYRiL4y2frBKOWr1REJ_w_TI_CiSNzylqMTUojylHqwYwvDgVbvDhSHk7mQtFt6UjTuLQyHmeqJakEw-iXgsTVITnmcKq4DHFDlzq95HL1D2JP_aaDEe5vIMG5nhQ/s400/IMG_2018.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
I then yanked out an old brush and rather lumpily applied the pumice. It dries well and in a nice textured fashion. Having spent enough of my life living in freezing cold places, I don't like flat boring snow. To make lumpy but fresh powdery snow, use the same steps but PVA glue Citadel or GF9 snow flock on top of the pumice and Shazam! You are in business. I have done this for a number of my armies but I didn't think it worked for this project. In related news.... <span style="text-align: center;"> for the GT I needed three objectives. Now I am short on time but I could steal about ten/twenty minutes a day. Tobie had painted me a few extra character models soooo I though I would use these. Their bases are too small for my purpose so I built them out using a temporary ring (I don;t want to use them as objectives forever. I started by making a ring of green stuff on a 40mm base. I then smoothed down the edges and used the base of an old space marine to ensure that the sides matched the hight and diameter of one of my bases. You can see a model standing in the ring below:</span><br />

<br />
I then just followed the steps for snow basing that I listed above. And there you have it. Quick and easy. And thanks to Tobie... I have objectives that are very good to look at.<br />

I LOVE a good looking
table.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is nothing better in
my mind than playing a good game on a great table with fully painted
models.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is the perfect
combination.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Apparently I am not
alone as up at MOAB passerby after passerby would stop to get a closer look at
the great tables and armies.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now,
I am time poor and a slow painter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This means that I am constantly battling my age old nemesis… time… to
get armies to the point that I feel comfortable putting them on the table.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This leaves little time to build and
paint terrain…<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This is why I am
such a big fan of Gale Force Nine’s battlefield in a box range.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Pre-painted, good looking durable
terrain? Yes please!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now I will
get back to GF9’s products soon as I am a big fan BUT today it is time to talk
competition!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Warlord Games has
stepped into the pre-painted terrain business in a big way with the release of
their Atlantic Wall set.</div>

Clocking at roughly
$100 Aussie dollars I was initially sceptical of this project.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That said, Tobu has been working on a beautiful
D-Day beach table on and off for a while now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He has water and beach but not much in the way of
fortifications.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I thought I might
contribute something to this project and pre-ordered the AW kit from my
friendly Warlord distributor, War and Peace Games.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A quick aside, Ian at War and Peace games got my order out
in the same quick and friendly manner that I have come to expect from these
guys.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two days later I was opening

Now Bolt Action does
not have bunker rules per se but as The Mouth of Madness says… “The building
rules are forgiving.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think he
has a point.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In my opinion by
slightly tweaking the HE hit results you could easily run the building rules
and your little dudes would get proper protection on the battlefield.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Regardless I imagine that Warlord will
be publishing rules for these great models in their upcoming D-Day sourcebook.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am excited to get these babies in the

After the success of the KV2 at MOAB I got to thinking that maybe playing around with a heavy tank could work after all in Bolt Action. The result, the ol' STUG got called up to the workbench and hobby time began!<br />

I have ordered from Company B a number of times in the past and I have to say that I am very happy with their customer service. Their prices are on par with other manufacturers and their shipping times are excellent! I have had a few small hiccups quality wise in a few of the products but this kit was the first time that I actually cringed at the quality of a resin model.<br />

The main body of the kit was pitted badly and several of the hatches looked soft edged and melted. additionally the back right track guard was missing and the left was dangerously thin. I have included pictures above in black and white so show these defects as clearly as my camera allows. <br />

This is not enough to get Mama Morin's boy down though. As an old school model maker I did not get frustrated or angry. I got converting! I added stowage from Company B, Die Waffenkammer and Warlord games all over the kit to cover problem areas that shaving could not fix. I also removed the rear track guards entirely on both sides so they matched and re-enforced the remaining front guards with thin layers of green stuff (underneath). I then built back the edges of the exhaust boxes on the rear sides so they had a hard 90 degree corner to them, at least I did to the best of my abilities. The end result looked like this.<br />

I like the final results ALOT! I think the extra gear covering the tank gives it an experienced campaigner look that I look forward to painting. It also adds beef to an already intimidatingly large beast of a tank. VERY SEXY!!!<br />

In short, I love it! I could have asked for a new kit from Company B and I am sure they would have replaced it given their reputation (with me at least) for being helpful and friendly. Will this keep me from ordering other Company B kits? Nope... I bought and Japanese truck yesterday. Could it have ben better? Yup, but then I never would have spent as much time doing me best work to make the kit work. Sometimes I think the best results I get as a hobbyist come from mistakes and broken models. The extra effort goes a long way I suppose. Time to get painting!!!<br />
