After some jiggery-pokery regarding the venues and what we would actually be playing, Phil and myself got a game of Bolt Action at the White Hart on Thursday evening. This time we used 'full' 1000 point lists and played the 'Point Defence' scenario.
There is a full battle report with our orders of battle and more photographs on the Scrivsland blog:

Very nice figures and report – reminds me of George MacDonald Fraser's "Quartered Safe Out Here". |

That was my inspiration for this project. |

Brilliant…I especially like your dice nests! |

Thanks, the black dice are to track pins and the coloured dice track the 'to hit' number for mortars. |

Do like the look of the Japanese forces. |

Loving the figures, can i ask, what colours you used for the basing pallette as it's really effective. Army painter for the Japanese?, looks excellent |

Thanks all. I don't use Army Painter, I prefer the Vallejo Sepia Wash, but if it helps I did a painting guide for the Japanese on the blog, you can find a guide to the colours used here: link The bases are gritty sand stuck on with PVA glue, painted with Vallejo Field Drab, highlighted with Vallejo Dark sand and then washed with Vallejo Sepia Wash. I then finish off with Woodland Scenic scatter and MiniNatur tufts. |
