Pictures from Beginning Wargaming article


Well I've finally submitted two articles to Wargames Soldiers and Strategy on beginning
wargaming.
The first will appear in Decembers issue and the next is currently being reviewed.
For the second article I must thank Bob Cordery for allowing me to use his When Empires Clash - Colonial Rules.
I thought I would update my blog with the photos used for the second article.

First up are the Boer figures

And here are the Brits

NB - The figures are unpainted because the main part of the article explains how to get gaming straight away and then covers painting the figures at the end. This is a deliberate choice because a beginner might get disheartened and give up if they had to do all the painting etc before they could begin.


Here are some painted Brits based for use with the Boers featured previously in this blog

  1. Cool. My great grandfather was in the Boer War, and I have pictures! Who makes these models? And have you seen the 1/32 scale Boer War models sold by Armies in Plastic?

  2. They are actually 1/72nd scale Strelets Boer War figures.

    I am aware of the AIP figures but have not seen them in the flesh.
