I've started a blog at http://doctorphalanx.blogspot.com which will eventually replace this web.

February 2011

I haven't had much time for wargaming, modelling or maintaining this web in recent times but my interest has been renewed. My current activities are:

• Converting the Crossfire 'Stalingrad' buildings to single-storey. The 'towering edifices' just didn't work. Putting the figures inside them was too fiddly. I also think that CF is essentially 2D not 3D and that keeps it more vanilla. I am also creating some more rough areas (rubble). The scenery is only half-finished, but here are some pictures of an actual game: [1] [2] [3] [4]
• Investigating the possibility of doing the First Balkan War and the Chinese Warlord Era in 10mm using Square Bashing rules.
• Investigating the possible use of PanzerGrenadier boardgame rules (with 4" hexes) for 10mm WW2 Normandy armies. The alternative will be Blitzkrieg Commander.
• Painting my 10mm ACW armies.
