From DaveD - ‘Nam 68 - various bits - 95 points

First post of this challenge for me is a a few items required for an upcoming ‘Nam game being run by myself and MartinC of this good parish . We did a play test recently and found we needed a few more items (mainly bad things for the US Forces ) so they have been fast tracked through the painting queue.

The ‘Nam project was born of a paint and chat session in the last challenge - where a few of use talked ourselves into “ooh shiney” - it’s coming along nicely now . 

Downed helicopter crew from Full Metal Miniatures 28mm x4 = 20 points 

I had completed the Helo last week as I knew these guys were on the paint list 

I

Casualties and corpsman medic sets from Gringo40s 28mm x “10” - 4 prone so 40 points 

Tunnel Rat and dog team -again by Gringo40s , one figure plus dog - 8 points

VC Sniper and VC team heading of with downed airman to the Hanoi Hilton - - x4 - 20 points 

Full metal miniatures these bits 

Some tunnel entrances from Full metal miniatures - x 6 

Scatter terrain from Too Fat Lardies from CoC x 4 

J

Now what’s inside the entrance ? Booby traps , tunnel, sniper , etc.. 

Not great volume on the terrain , but enough for 5 points I reckon .

Total -93 points 

Provided our dear leader allows some meeting up next week we shall have them on the table for Operation Turkey Dinner - more later . There will be a host of other green goodies along in due course . 

Post the holiday session I shall be hosting some more paint and chats which will be posted on FB page .

Points on the board - “Huzzah!”

Welcome back Dave!

Wow, you've been busy since the starter pistol shot! Fantastic work mate. That downed Huey is very impressive. I also like the VC vignette of them hauling off the wounded prisoner. Very evocative. I'm going to round off to 95 points for the submission. I hope that Operation Turkey Dinner can come off for you - we all need a little bit of levity (and good company) this season.

WEDNESDAY from RichardP - WWII Kriegsmarine (116 points)

A 20mm Platoon of WWII German Kriegsmarine for Chain of Command. Figures are Kelly Heroes from Grubby Tanks (Britannia Miniatures).

Each of the three sections consist of:-

Junior Leader
Rifle Squad - 4 Riflemen
MG Squad - MG34 Team (2 Figures) + 2 Riflemen

Commanded by a Senior Leader.

This will be the first unit of my 2017 WWII Chain of Command project. I have painted them a bit bluer than they probably should be and have started to paint all my figures a bit brighter than usual as I like the way they look on the tabletop.

ByronM: A very good points score for the day at 116 points!  The blue may be a bit bright but I think it works and will really make them stand out on the table, especially with the white accents.  I hope they serve you well in CoC, and I look forward to seeing more of your CoC project.
