It's been a while since I've posted as I've been in a bit of a funk and not done much of note. But yesterday I went to the club and had a cracking game of @badsocialism.bsky.social great WW1 rules. French Vs Germans sometimes in 1914 using Johns lovely 6mm figures. It will be at Joy of 6 soon.

... Archer's Brigade run up against the Iron Brigade and, as usual, not very nice things happen...

The advance has started, about to get very spicy down Ru's end of the table...

Off round @desmondo.bsky.social for a bit of Day 1 Gettysburg action in lovely 15mm-o-rama. Another run at the great Heth's attack scenario from last year but using his newly written rules. More pics later once we get stuck in!

Obligatory "bleeding he'll it's a big room innit" photo. First one here and the lights weren't even on.

Just need to finish basing this lot up then first skirmish base is finished for my Saxons. As usual 6mm Turner's tweaked in Blender.

Lunch break. Playing another great game of @flankmarch.bsky.social fantastic mid 19th Century big battle rules. As usual, bags of fun and the pre game campaign but makes it even better. And all in fantastic Imagi-nation based 2mm-o-rama.

Big Game Saturday at the club today. Lots of big games going on.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 11/03/2026
Here's the finished Saxon Foot battery of 2 bases. 6mm Turners put through Blender, including the gun which is a slightly tweaked Russian carriage with a French barrel. I really enjoy painting these figures as the detail is just lovely.

What another fantastic Herts of Lard! Congratulations and many thanks to Joe for putting it on again. A packed hall full of gamers enjoying some cracking games. Apart from the games themselves it was great catching up with people and meeting new ones. Long live the Lard!

Part 1 of the journey to Herts of Lard begins. Bus to Croydon to meet the chaps. I woke up an hour before the alarm went off so decided to finish these chaps off. I only printed them on Thursday! 6mm Saxon Napoleonic gunners. "Made" by me from fantastic Henry Turner Blender files.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 06/03/2026
A couple of the Bremen Uhlans I knocked up in Blender using bits from a couple of Henry Turner's kickstarters. I love the freedom this gives you to design and adapt figures for printing, especially to get the uniforms right for these small units. Each one of this 10 figure unit will be unique.

Well that's been a while innit. Had a winter funk plus usual illness so haven't felt like posting. All better now and lots coming up to post about with testing of rules, 3D printing, painting and shows. Herts of Lard on Saturday which will be great. Some 6mm Naps I painted or rebased recently.

I've been up for an hour, tea drunk, shower, shit & a shave all done. Off to help put on a 3mm Cold War game at Re: Play show at the Sapper Museum in Gillingham. Really looking forward to it as it's a cracking venue and it'll be the first run out for Des' new BAOR kit. Pop by and say hello.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 20/10/2025
Photo dump of the weekend long game of "Not Quatre Bras" round Des'. A cracking time spent with proper mates playing with beautiful kit. Only fly in the ointment was the utter twatting we received from our opponents as they gave us a lesson in Napoleonic combined arms!

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 10/10/2025
Just finished this off. Half rebased figures, half newly painted. Adler 6mm French Napoleonic Line Infantry 1re Btln, based for my rules as usual. Also did similar with a battalion of Lützow Freikorp but they will be replaced with Turner 3d prints so sort of half arsed them, plus more limbers.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 05/10/2025
Did anyone else have these? I was given loads by my dad when I was a kid. Admittedly I didn't really read the info but spent hours poring over the cracking illustrations.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 03/10/2025
Just finished the basing on the Napoleonic Saxon I/Friedrich August infantry. Henry Turner Miniatures "made" by me in Blender and printed at about 7/8mm scale. Based for my own rules.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 01/10/2025
I've been very quiet as haven't had much to show as I've been beavering away on Blender "making" lots of Napoleonic Westfalians for printing. However I have managed to finish off a few bits so here's a couple of Austrian limbers plus a Saxon battalion ready for varnish & basing. 6mm Turner prints.

Off round Des' for some hot CoC action, only my second go at a Pacific set game.

One of the books that started it all off for me, one of the few Blandfords that me and the other uniform nuts had out on a rotating loan from Romford Market. Only £3.

Fantastic news. Because the train from Doncaster to Leeds has run slow we will miss our connection at Leeds and have to wait half an hour for the next one. That first pint ain't going to touch the sides.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 28/08/2025
Cracking start to our trip away to Yorkshire. Train we were on got cancelled after we got on it. Had to jump on another along with everyone else. Nearly at Doncaster now. Been stood up all the way. Outside a kharzi as only space left. I need a pint or three! 😀

I've just edited the FFT mods as realised I'd missed a couple of bits off and hopefully have made a couple of bits clearer! tracksandthreads.wordpress.com/a-fistful-of...

Cracking day down the club yesterday, hall was packed which was great to see. Me & @desmondo.bsky.social had a marvellous 6mm Cold War'ish game using my FFT3/ CoC hybrid. His Sovs pushed my Austrians off the table but only at a terrible cost.

Didn't get to take many pics today as I was very busy helping with the rules. Here's the situation at half time earlier...

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 02/08/2025
Off round Des' for some 3mm Cold War action. Did a spot of rebasing before I left which included this fella. Probably the best 6mm figure I've painted - some of you might recall him from "the other place". Adler, painted as a Hanseat Legion Artillery officer.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 31/07/2025
Surely not more finished kit? 4 half-battery bases of Austrian 6 pdrs. 6mm Turner 3d printed figures bought from Nerad Games, limbers on order.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 28/07/2025
Bit of Buffalo hunting, plains style down the club tonight. I managed to shoot the white one twice but just annoyed it! Cracking fun, rules by Pip.
0100
Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 28/07/2025
The next batch of figures are ready for varnishing. More Turner bought printed figures. Enough Austrian gunners for 3 batteries, guns nearly finished too. Varnishing and basing to be done tomorrow once guns are finished.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 22/07/2025
That's them finished! Enjoying painting again so hopefully this will continue.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 20/07/2025
I've only gone and got something finished (well bar the varnish and basing). These have been sat nearly done for far too long. 8mm Saxon Napoleonic hussars. - 3d printed Turner's.

Me and Des are only in bloody Yorkshire! Very surprised there was no passport control at Doncaster Station.

Northbound for Joy of 6 tomorrow. Out and about in Sheffield later for a drink and a Ruby.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 08/07/2025
Off round Des' for more Cold War action but finished these off this morning. Self printed and Blender adjusted so that each figure is individual. Saxon I/Prinz Anton. 8mm based for my own rules.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 27/06/2025
It didn't go well for me.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 27/06/2025
Round Des' for some 3mm Cold War action using my mash up of Fistful of TOWs and CoC. You can guess the name 😉. My valiant DDR chaps push forward against vile imperialist Amis. Half arsed terrain and figures as usual, one suffers for one's hobby sometimes...

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Well that got very busy very quickly. Tons of Austrians & Bavarians turned up. My 3 Brigades held out as long as they could but ultimately numbers told and I got battered!

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
About to kick off, I'm well up the table and there's no enemy on it yet. Which is worrying...

Lovely present from Per when I arrived. Terrain friendly "Initiative Clocks".

Just sat here on the platform and there's a Wren belting out its lovely song and it's always amazing to me how such a small thing can make such a huge noise.

Iain Fuller @iainf.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Off round Des' for some 1814 Napoleonic action. A first for me playing a game set in this year. Hopefully the allied forces of @desmondo.bsky.social & @perbroden.bsky.social will go easy on my gallant lads tasked with defending la belle France. Really looking forward to it.
