Purchase history, November

Although there are only three items on the list, they were sort of expensive together.

First, Fighting Sail rules by Osprey, already tested and very promising.

Then a 1/500 ship of the line model by Heller, scored on ebay because of the lack of other options. I'm going to use this ship as a prop for my 6mm games. Although there is a huge difference in scales, the ship might still be just a bit too big - in that case I will have to scratchbuild one. As a reminder, an amphibious operation type of game had been conducted some time ago on the Schultze-Böhnstadt blog, it's something similar to this I would like to achieve with the model.

The third purchase is for 'Jazygia 1996', for which I have completed another score of figures, but as they still lack any vehicles or armored support, I bought three cheap T-72 models from China, again through ebay.

In the meantime I have started painting up the 6mm figures, the militia and Highlanders only need a layer of varnish before I begin basing them, and then I can proceed to the French. I'm going to have to buy some Vallejo acrylic varnish because the metal figures don't take enamels very well.
