Got my Paras to the final stage before they’re based. Just need a wash and the Camo before I can go any further.
I also got sick of actually doing research for my YouTube Channel so I just finished recording a 50 Minute video of me randomly flipping through “Napoleon’s Campaign’s in Miniature” and talking off the cuff about the period. Although I did go on a few tangents (at one point I bought up Darkstar and it was 100% relevant). It’ll go up during the week so subscribe to “Grizzly Cave” if that sounds cool. After that a video about the OTHER Battle of Thermopylae is coming out later, trying to go a bit outside the box and not just repeat things other people have already covered.

Teaching a friend Sharp Practice tomorrow which should be fun especially since he’s French.
@cpauls1 it was the in thing to do back in the day, it seems almost every mini pre 2000 had a very thick gloss varnish coat. A DONGA is an African word that the Aussies picked up during the Boer War and brought home, now it’s a portable building that you se on construction site. It’s 6mx4m and perfect for me. They’re starting to catch on here in Australia since our construction industry is far bigger per capita than Europe and the US so we have a lot more old ones floating around.
@unclejimmy Without getting political Ayn Rand is the Father (Mother?) of Modern Libertarianism, she created the “Voluntarism” ideology where the idea that “Taxation is Theft” comes from and of course ANCAP’s gave us the “Recreational McNukes” meme which we can all agree is a great contribution to online culture. They’re also easily the most self deprecating/laugh at themselves group in the world which makes them pretty good memer’s.
You should defiantly give weekend wargaming a go @oriskany and his games are always great and open to anyone who wants a go. No pressure or anything and a lot of fun. I mean you can literally play a wargame with it’s creator on a weekly basis (Darkstar) or anything else that Jim can run via Excel. Our game on Sunday will probably be live streamed (9pm GMT, 6am AEST, 4pm Florida Time on Sitrep’s Twitch) but most of the time it’s just you and Jim or maybe one or two other people watching.
On the Music Front Forlorn Hope just launched their Debut Album today and it’s fantastic you can check it out on Spotify. Napoleonic Historical metal, my favourite so far is “War in the Shadow’s” about the Guerrilleros. It’s got a great Chorus “Fight for God and Ferdinand! Fight the War that no one knows War in the Shadows”. Die Hard is also great, about the Battle of Albuera which was a total slaughter fest, focuses on the 57th and their Colonel’s famous words as he lay wounded “Die Hard 57th” and they did taking about 80% Casualties, that’s what happens when an under strength Brigade tries to take on an entire Corps (and succeeds).
