Crooked Dice UAZ-486 - AKA The Alien Jeep.

 Crooked Dice have just released an "Alien Invader Jeep", which bears an uncanny resemblance to the Soviet UAZ-469 (though in the form of a two door variant).

Two Zone explorers check out the surroundings. Empress modern Russian and Universal Soldier.

Salute 2021

 Due to "One thing and another", South London Warlords recycled the unused bags and theme from the planned 2020 Salute. For extra recycling points, the bags were cotton.

There were full size models of a Spitfire and a hHurricane on display.


There were lots of interesting games on display, but time meant I did not get a chance to see them all. The Carnevale demo game certainly had an interesting board.

Stargrave: Quarentine 37 Zombie

 The expansion book for Stargrave: Quarantine 37 was released in September. Along with the book, there is a set of figures, including zombies.

This is the first one I have painted.

As the campaigns in Quarantine 37 take place on a research station, I used some Slater's 7mm tread plate as the surface for the base.
