Everything was really good, but I personally think your Crusader tanks in the caunter were just that _little bit_ better than the 1st place winner.
I like sandwiches. That's a good plan.
FJ recoilless rifle taking on American tanks Peter Pig model
US infantry in building on left FJ around rubble on right
FJ in ruined house
FJ in another ruined house
Some more pics from last night. Best part was _finally_ using the FJ recoilless infantry guns I bought from Peter Pig 16(?) years ago

Americans coming under fire. Couple of M3s blown up before their troops disembark
StuG gets brewed up by an M18
Pak40 gets nervous
Last card of the game his P47 _finally_ shows up and brews up another StuG
Same table different War! Played some I Ain't Been Shot Mum last night. US Armored Combat Team vs FJ. I chopped up the US Armored Infantry but his Shermans outflanked me.

I enjoy them both for different reasons and like each actor's interpretation of Maigret.
Problem with watching Maigret is it makes me want to go to Paris and sit in a Cafe smoking a pipe
Midgard Caesar's Civil War - The Spanish cohorts advanced in perfect silence, shields locked, sunlight flashing along the bronze rims. Dust curled around their sandals as the centurion raised his vine staff, eyes fixed on the enemy line. βAdelante,β he growled.
Orcs of the Iron Valley are mustering for battle (well, a photo session, anyway). Here we see the Bittercleavers out for trouble. Minis: Knucklebones, Frostgrave, Oathmark, Gripping Beast, Perry & Wargames Atlantic. Jon Hodgson Backdrop as usual! #nerdlings #miniatures #spreadthelard #jhbackdrops
Oooooh the Rowan Atkin version of Maigret, and the earlier version of Maigret are also very fine.
I loved his character. It was a good foil to Lewis.
Shame he turned into a frothing transphobe.
But the other actors are lovely.
No.
I don't think it's hit Britbox yet
I appreciate the attention to detail.
Do I _need another_ mug? No. Would I be sad if I didn't get a special 30th Anniversary Hotlead mug? Yes
Hotlead 30th Anniversary golf shirt in blue
Back of black Hotlead anniversary tee.
I think Quar might look good in this
Busy day. Drove an hour to Big City to pick up the Hotlead Anniversary swag orders.
Stopped at nice Italian deli for lunch & treats.
Stopped by hobby shop for paint. Found weird biplane model I hope I can stick #Quar into.
That's just one guy. Don't need to hurt the other stars.
Mrs really like Ludwig
Right? Mrs. Sidhu made us hungry. The actress is great too.
Mrs. reminded me about Brokenwood and the devastingly satiric Dreadloch from the Antipodes
For a little cozier feel there's My Life is Murder starring Lucy Lawless
Indeed! I should just go list the Mystery section of Britbox
That was the one I couldn't remember off the top of my head
Lewis is a great continuation from Morse.
Also Vera, Shetland, and... damn. I'll remember it later I'm sure.
If she pays Β£185 to prove it, will that satisfy the Lord of the NazgΓ»l ?
Bit of a wobble today.
I'm sure I just need a cup of @yorkshiretea.bsky.social a chocolate biscuit, and a sit down.

I blame the reporters:)
Some more 20mm German stuff for my motorpool. 3D printed StuG III Ausf. F/8 from Night Sky Miniatures and some Einheits-LKW from PSC.
Photographed in front of a HandiWorks backdrop as usual.

Thank you!
I wish I'd been more inspired to write a bit of first person stuff, but it was late.
Super cute #terrain #Nerdlings
You do indeed! rabbitsinmybasement.blogspot.com/2025/02/koni...
