My latest blog entry is a teaser for a parti game I'm working on for later this year…..

Very clever – I especially like the "red" dingy with the rifleman and the viking

Mad Max in bellbottoms! :D

Brilliant idea for a variation on a theme. The boats look great, too! Where did you source them, and what scale are they?

They are the result of a few weeks keeping an eye out for odd toys on Ebay. They are roughly 20mm – the figures are assorted Esci and Airfix types. I'm starting to work on some "spectators" (in the vein of the Tusken raiders in SW Ep1)and terrain bits and bobs.

Anyone know where I can get a 20mm or 1/87 jetski?

David, as a good friend of Dave Schueler's and a regular host of Thunderboat! races at Enfialde, it's great to see you take them in a different direction. I often thought it would be fun to try a Great Race game with the players running armed boats, balloons and cars. Good luck with your game. Be sure to keep us posted.
