Miniature Projects for 2012

Well I have been gaining a lot of new stuff over the last couple of months through trades and with the existing stuff I have I have decided what projects I will be doing for next year.  I am going to list these in not any particular order, just as they come to mind...

           1 Battery of French Foot Artillery - have Perry's
           1 Battery of French Horse Artillery - have Perry's
           1 unit of 12 Perry Metal British 1815 Heavy Dragoons
           3 boxes Perry Plastic British Infantry 
           3 boxes of  Perry Plastic French Infantry
           2 boxes of Perry Plastic French Hussars
           2 units of Dragoons Plastic Perry's
           2-4 boxes of Perry British Hussars whenever they get released around here

2.  15-18mm Napoleonics British and French   Almost done for now.
            3 British Infantry units 32ea - have AB's
            2 French Infantry units 32ea  - have AB's
            2 Portuguese Cacadores units 32ea - have AB's
           
3.  15mm Selucid army - I have partially done OG Selucid boxed army plus some xtra stuff

5.  28mm ECW Royalist and Parliamentarians 
            2 small units of Cav

Stuff to start - I have everything or most everything

1.  28mm Samurai army - need some more units

2.  28mm Republican Roman army - Same
3.  28mm Imperial Roman army -Same
4.  28mm  Yet to be acquired foe for my Romans.
5. And if I have any time left, I have a TON of War of the Roses/Hundred Years War stuff I just got in a trade to paint.

Okay I think that is it.  What???  It's a long year....right?  ;)  If you have any idea's on who I should get for my Roman opponents in 28mm and my Selucid opponents in 15mm Please shoot me some idea's...


Cheers...          

Latest issue of Charge! Johnny Reb III quarterly newletter arrived

The post came the other day and much to my surprise issue #26 is the Johnny Reb III gaming society was amongst my mail.  The surprise was that I did not expect it until early next month.  I had just joined this at the beginning of April at the cost of $20.00 per year for 4 issues.  The main reason I got this was that every issue has between 2-5 scenario's in it amongst other things, for example this issue has the following in it:

Scenario: Little Phil's stand at Chickamauga.
Rules add-on: Random events cards for your scenario's.
Rules discussion: JRIII Artillery revisited.
Scenario: Meade's Pipe Creek Line.
And More...

I felt the scenario's alone over the course of a year were worth the cost.  You figure you will get between 8-20 scenario's in that time, hell that is a scenario book that you would pay $20.00-$40.00USD for anywhere else. it is put out by a name(Scott Mingus) you should recognize, if you are at all involved with ACW gaming.  If you are interested in or play Johnny RebIII ACW rules I would highly recommend getting this!  The link is here >  http://scottmingus.wordpress.com/about/

Get it you will not regret it...
