Fix Bayonets...

Nearly twenty years ago I inserted an advert in Wessex Games' Hell by Starlight rules for our planned third game release - Redcoats on Mars. A draft set of 1/300th rules was sat on my Apple Mac but for one reason or another we went down a different route VSF wise with Aeronef and then Land Ironclads (and hopefully sometime this year Aquanef). However, despite producing games allowing for epic air, land and sea battles I still have a love of "God's Own Scale" - 28mm and a desire to play VSF games with 28mm models...

Over the last couple of years an idea has germinated in my head, to produce a set of 28mm VSF wargames rules, not tided to a specific miniatures range, indeed if anything, encouraging players to buy from the manufacturers whose miniatures they liked the best and utilise their imaginations in producing fantastic machines, aliens and scenery. Two fingers to spoon-fed wargaming!

The rules are in a very rough Alpha testing stage at the moment (hopefully public Beta testing will be later this year) but I thought it would be an interesting exercise to have a public conception as I try things out, as well as this blog being somewhere I can display the progress of the armies and models I'm  collecting and painting for inclusion in the rulebook.

I'm not quite sure how long this journey of genesis and development will take, but hopefully you will be interested enough to tag along...

  2. A clever use for an old clicky model and the wool makes it look lively.

  3. I'M NOW FULFILL FINANCIALLY BECAUSE OF THE LOAN I GOT FROM LFDS .I would like to bring this to the notice of the public about how i came in contact with LFDS after i lost my job and being denied loan by my bank and other financial institution due to my credit score. I could not pay my children's fees. I was behind on bills, about to be thrown out of the house due to my inability to pay my rent, It was during this period my kids were taken from me by foster care. Then i set out to seek for funds online where i lost $3,670 that i borrowed from friends which i was rip off by two online loan companies. Until i read about:Le_Meridian Funding Service  (lfdsloans@outlook.com / lfdsloans@lemeridianfds.com) somewhere on the internet, Still wasn't convince because of what i have been through until a relative of mine who is a clergy also told me about the ongoing loan scheme of LFDS at a very low interest rate of 1.9%% and lovely repayment terms without penalty for default of payment. I have no choice than to also contact them which i did through text +1-989-394-3740 and Mr Benjamin responded back to me That day was the I'M best and greatest day of my life which can never be forgotten when i receive a credit alert of $400,000.00 Usd loan amount i applied for. I utilized the loan effectively to pay up my debts and to start up a business and today i and my kids are so happy and fulfill. You can as well contact them through email: (lfdsloans@outlook.com / lfdsloans@lemeridianfds.com)  WhatsApptext  helpline: +1-989-394-3740 Why am i doing this? I am doing this to save as many that are in need of a loan not to be victim of scams on the internet. Thanks and God bless you all, I'm Oleksander Artem from Horizon Park BC , Ukrain.
