December plans and a milestone

  This just in---

  Gentle readers, you are reading the 600th entry on the blog.  In the past I have deleted six or so entries from the blog as they had lost any value,  whether they lacked hobby useful ideas or something that was very interesting only in the moment. 

 November finished with a whimper,  an under the weather day that did allow some time for the struggle in the campaign of the three belligerent nations to be mapped out.  There,  that's me whining I didn't make it to the game store Saturday.

So even without the deleted files,  this is number six hundred. Thank you for your patience with the butterfly moments and always courteous comments.  

 December is different.  Pictures. Even used the light box.

So without further fluffing, today's agenda:

Hinterland highlights :

The figures are being drafted and drilled in the Hinterland parade ground,  units are drawing equipment available and identified requirements are being requisitioned today. 

  Had to put some flesh on faces and hands!

  Operator, can you help me place this call?
 

Motor elements are requisitioned to be supplied to recon and fire support.  A few specialists are being identified for the Naval detachment.  Suitable figures as possible allies are being considered.  

Air highlights:

Plans for a December 7th inspired scenario for Blood Red Skies to take place next Saturday are in place.   Also, there is a small test of a variation on Avalon Hill's Midway game , based on the Coral Sea area being done. This should turn into a short campaign on a Friday game soon. 

The Seas (and things that go on them ) highlights: 

The fleet actions heat up. There are probably some 5 or 6  actions to be fought as part of the expedition to an island by Dahara,  whose bellicose demeanor has spilled into the Seas. Using Black Sails, Wooden Ships & Iron Men, or some other rules set on water, a charming diversion from the grim plains of Fuddland is coming. Warning, these engagements will all be small as far as the numbers of ships.

Growlers and Gainfuls   assembled:

    Both Grumblers assembled in travel positions

  Gainful battery with one launcher, one radar track.

Hopefully the next showing of the Sam units will be in camo, or at least the Warpac green.

    

  Test on a green for some of the mounted.
