Geisterstunde - Darkest Hour

Michi hat Geister "bemalt", die in Zukunft über den Spieltisch spuken werden, um tapfere Helden zu erschrecken. Sicher werden sie nicht nut für THE SILVER BAYONET sehr brauchbar sein, sondern auch für FROSTGRAVE und andere Gespenstergeschichten...

 Michi has painted a handful of ghosts which will haunt the gaming table in the future to frighten brave heroes. Surely they will not only be useful for THE SILVER BAYONET, but for FROSTGRAVE and other ghost stories alike...

Viele dieser Wizkids-Figuren aus grundiertem Kunststoff sind ziemlich gut gestaltet und gar nicht mal so teuer. Michi findet es toll, dass man auf die Sockel der Geister andere Figuren platzieren kann, die dann bedrohlich umarmt werden können.

This plastic Wizkids stuff is rather cool and not too expensive. Michi likes that these miniatures can take another miniature with a 20mm diameter base atop their own bases to hug and caress them in a most threatening way.

The Silver Bayonet: A Flag, an Officer and Clue Markers

Commanding officer and a flag bearer of the Army of Württemberg. The flag is modeled from paper and a lot of wood glue with a day long drying time. For a first attempt with this method I am pretty satisfied with the result.

3D resin prints, STL files by Piano Wargames.


The clue markers for 'The Silver Bayonet' are scaled down from free terrain STLs and also 3D printed. Clue markers are scenario driven plot points, which can be place holders for monsters, hidden secrets, etc. to keep the game up and running.

 

Private Military Contractors

Private Military Contractors are providing armed combat or security services for financial gain. They are used as trainers, bodyguards or security staff, especially in hostile territories. Apart from securing companies, they secure officials and government affiliates. Contractors who use armed force in a war zone can be considered unlawful combatants, explicitly specified by the 2006 American Military Commissions Act.

With this background, PMC are therefore best suited for ultra modern wargaming and can be used for many tense scenarios, no matter on which side. 

The figures are 3D printed with resin on a Mars2Pro, the STL files are from Turnbase Miniatures. I've painted these with "Spectre Operations" in mind, but there are a lot of interesting rule sets out there.

So, here are two contractors, one with a MK18 assault rifle, the other with a MP7 submachine gun.
