Finished my Rescue Team Split these into the two packs that I had from Gripping Beast. They are both from the MOFO Falklands British range. The first photos are of the smg pack I chose to use the Wooly hat heads for both these packs as I was after a special forces type look. The second set is the command (minus the mortar not decided if I want to use it yet) The guy in blue will be the leader I changed his head for the Grizzled Minion head from Crooked Dice. The main influence of these guys is the movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service I saw this recently for the first time and though what a cracking film for some reason I must of missed this growing up or it wasn't shown on telly much. The rescue teams at the end are in simliar gear and so the seeds were sown.
Not sure what to start on next I also picked up a set of Crooked Dice's new minions set the flamethrower and technician guy. Nice sculpts and will be good additions to my other minions/guards. Have a load of Hasslefree bits to get finished for various projects so we will see.
Excellent work Sir. Great choice on the colour palette in the end; all works really well.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on these. I always enjoy seeing your work.
ReplyDeleteNot only do the rules look good they also work well. So start planning your TV series.
ReplyDeleteNice work on the figures, They've come out really well.
ReplyDeleteLooking good Brummie! There was a game of 7TV at my club and the guy playing was singing its praises, so I think you've got something to look forward to! Might have to get it myself now ... and watch OHMSS!
ReplyDeleteVery interested in the 7TV rules, particularly as there's a Zombie Supplement to go with it.
ReplyDeleteNice work on the figures too!
They look great especially as SAS types, lovely work and I've seen those rules displayed and explained a lot at shows and they sounded great.....
ReplyDeleteI've just gotten into 7tv myself, and even after a quick read of the rulebook I have a page of ideas of games to play. Looking forward to getting some game time under my belt.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I'm really curious about 7tv rules...
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the kind comments guys.
ReplyDelete@CMNASH Go watch it you know you want to :D
@Zombie AD the 7ombieTV Rules are standalone I believe. The Core rules just flesh them out abit (pun intended hehe)
Not had chance to have a proper read through yet. Read the intro and flicked through at all the groovy artwork and pictures
Cool, this game is great! i would recomend getting the cards and counters, though you can print them off from the back of the book.
ReplyDeleteYeah I intend to I saved on postage though by ordering through my local shop though. I will order the cards etc direct though as it will only be a few pound and I want some of the separate head set as well
ReplyDeleteI've had quite an interest in this game for a while now. Sounds great. I don't suppose you ever go to the wargames club in Ladywood do you?!?
ReplyDeleteNo don't currently go to any clubs at the moment only been back into the hobby properly for a year and starting more or less from scratch.
ReplyDeleteDo they have a website?
Yes they do, but it is very old and out of date! Even I wouldn't recognise it! Do a Google search for "October Wargames Club", although I'm not sure it is even called that any more!
DeleteCheers I'll bare them in mind :D
ReplyDeleteTo be fair it is better than the website looks and I've met a good gaming buddy there. That means more when you appreciate that I am *really* fussy about who I game with. :)
DeleteI know what you mean. I've not really gamed at a club in over fifteen years and that was at school lol. Used to game with a few guys at home etc but they have lost interest or moved away!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty much the same! I used to play Man O'War with a couple of friends when I was 16 or so. Tried to get one other friend into Star Wars minitures, but he was more into computer games. Since then I moved more over to boardgames until I found this club. Still, even now most of my wargaming is done solo!
ReplyDeleteSolo will be the way for me for a while yet. my kids are too little and are hard work.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading the 7TV rules. So might have a few little games if I get chance this week just to test them out and get my head around something none GW
Really very nice painted figures!
ReplyDeleteGreetings
