More Cold War buildings

 Another base of cold war buildings for 80s gaming. Models are by Leven miniatures, wich are now carried by https://battlescale.com/ .

M60s in the background are Heroics and Ros but thats for another day.

Back to Cold War.

 Its been a while, too long realy, but I have been able to work on a new model for 6mm Cold War games. Another Timecast idustrial unit with fences from Ratio Plastic Model's N gauge range and a skip from Perfect 6 miniatures. The fence is a little fragile so time will tell if it stands up to wargamers sausage fingers!

Some appartment blocks next.

M8 HMC

 These have been sat on the bench a while but I've finally got them done. Raventhorpe M8 with a AB miniatures crew figures and stowage by various manufacturers. Anice model but it shares its hull with their M5, hence the stowage to disguise the front of the hull.

Saturday Rapid Fire

Managed a game at the Grimsby Wargames Society club this weekend. Danny provided the Germans and I brought my Americans. Very enjoyable game, with the Yanks getting the win after breaking through on Dan's left flank.

Next game either Cold War Commander2 or Blackpowder ACW. 

Ready to Roll Marder 3s

 Dan and myself are planning a Rapid Fire game at the Grimsby Wargames Society ciub in a couple of weeks time. We are looking to use one of the scenarios from Richard Marsh and Colin Rumfords excelent Normandy Battlegames scenario book. The one we are going for is Across The Elle- June13th/14th 1944. Looking at the orbat we realised niether of us had a Marder self propelled gun! Looking through my resin stash I realised I had 2 of the Raventhorpe/ Ready To Roll models. These are avilable from the Rapid fire website  www.rapid-fire-uk.com/product/marder-iii-m-75mm-tank-destroyer/ Very good wargaming models with very little cleaning up required.

Quick paint job and just the crews to complete.

Finnished..at last!

Started these whilst in lock down. All based for Rapid Fire. Figures are by Tony Barton and available from Eureka Miniatures.

HQ unit

Heavy Weapons

3 Infantry companies

Medic, flamethrower and sniper.

 Just need to complete a 57mm anti tank gun and this battalion is complete.

Another American vehicle.

Continuing the WW2 US theme here is a Ready to Roll M20.

Possibly use this as part of a command unit or recce for a tank destroyer unit. All done barr flocking the base.
