Check Your Gear! 2021 - 2022

I have a large collection in 15mm all based up to play Battalion level battles. In fact, I could probably do a regiment! My primary focus is on the Easter Offensive, but I am starting to branch out into other areas of the conflict. I recently acquired some US and ANZAC figures, so I have that to look forward to. I am looking into collecting 20mm figures to individually base them for squad and platoon actions.

what maker of the anzacs you get ? i game 20mm also ..

My ANZACs are 15mm battlefront and I think they are pretty nice.

ah i thought you meant 20mm anzacs

Yeah after reading what I wrote I could see that. Whoops! My bad. I think the Eureka ANZACS like nice from the photos, but I think I read somewhere that they are a little small compared to the other manufacturers? Still deciding on who I am going to go with just for GIs and PAVN/VC. I am seriously looking at Elheim, but their current prices are a little hard to swallow and then I would have to pay the shipping to the states...

I only found this iteration of FoF today, having been on its previous incarnations over the years.
Good to be back
WARLOCK 6 out

Welcome back Warlock 6!

Welcome welcome Warlock! I thought your call sign sounded familiar when you applied. I'll change you over to a Legacy Member.

Thanks. I may have been Gamesman 6 too. I remember and still have copies of the old paper Dust off.
I did another iteration of my large scale "kriegspiel" a while back.
I can't remember ii I posted links on the old iteration of the group to the blog I ran for the game.
Unfortunately the games got pushed indefinitely as players RL stuff got in the way.
I also ran a LRRP game during the first lockdown. I had 3 players, my old core Nam group as the TL for 3 patrols. 2 US and 1 Aussie. Working with The 173rd. I made use of WhatsApp and a text to voice and voice charger for radio comms and descriptions.
The original intent had for this to lead to a battalion sized KS type game with them being Company COS and another friend leading the NVA units. Me umpiring
Again unfortunately things meant that didn't happen... yet.
I'm currently working on the latest iteration of my rules.

Welcome back Jonathan. I love your SOG patch.

Tom

Thanks

Hi Everyone, used to be in the old forum as Mishima.
Look forward to getting back to duty.
I've got a lot going on, both gaming and real life stuff.
Thanks.
Tim / Mishima

Welcome back Mishima! Good to see you here and posting again.

Thanks, it's clearly been an interesting couple of years for everyone.
Tim

Hello again Mishima!

Hey hey! Welcome back Tim! The place wasn't the same without ya!

Thanks, Todd.

Welcome, Evan. It sounds like you are really into Vietnam wargaming if you are going to ass it in another figure size. Good for you. I do 20mm individually based and enjoy them very  much.

Hi all! I used to lurk on the old forums, nice to see FoF back - it was my go to for inspiration and mini intel. I game/model in multiple scales form 6mm (just starting out) through 15mm (ANZAC, ARVN & FW) to 25/8mm (ANZAC & PAVN/NVA).

Welcome Wirrakee!

Welcome back...

Nice to have you here.

Tom

So cool to be back, been kicking around for years and have been all over most scales. Just about to venture back into some 10mm action using MoCB from Peter Pig and Pendraken/3d Printed models

Hi all!!

Welcome back Matt! Good to see you again.

For those not in the know, Matt was our resident 10mm fan back in FOF's early days. Mike Ruffle soon started to dabble in this scale as well before his passing.

Leon from Pendraken is also a member here so I'm sure he'll be happy to see your project posts.

Welcome back!

I've seen a lot of people moving to 10mm for various projects (though mostly fantasy), looking forwards to what you have to show us!

Welcome back Matt.

Tom
