Panama 1989

 Yet another interesting game of the Cold War which I can fight on the table top with the added bit of confusion of either side wearing the same style of uniform!

So I'll be using Esci US Vietnam figures of troops in Bush hats and others as Panamanians and the US troops I have painted up as Canadians.

Plus I got some civilians who can become involved.

The US armor is a mixed bag of light gear 

Some interesting skirmish games in urban settings.




Grenada 1983


 Another Cold War action that I can put on a table.

My small American force can take on the Cubans and the locals

My American figures will be able to be on the table top whole my Warsaw Pact armed figures will be Islanders and Cubans.


A Bridge Too Far, second game in 15mm

 The first time I played this game, I did in 1/72 and some 15mm.


I'm going to replay the game using what I have in 15mm for all sides. 

I'll be using my entire British force and all my Warsaw Pact Airborne infantry and what they need will be multinational Warsaw Pact, including the Hinds.

With the current situation in 2022, I may hold off on doing this battle until the end of hostility in Ukraine. However with the new T-80 company that I picked up I will  see how it works.

To flesh out my British Scorpion sections, I will field Cromwells as their guns and armor were about the same. The ANZAC, Canadians,Dutch and Belgians will also be involved.
