They had holes in them. I did this because the bases of the metal KS are really thick and the minis are taller anyway. While the plastics were not. The metals were put in the holes while the plastics used the inserts. Bonus is that the spare inserts were used as ammo markers for TtS.

They are an Australian set by Manapress, called Tribal. Only needing small forces and a couple of packs of cards for movement and combat. With this in mind I thought of what minis I could use for them. Looking through my toys I decided on one of the sides easily and needed opponents. I had thought about Aztecs years ago but never had a chance to use them, now I thought was the perfect time to get some. Outpost Wargames Services have the best range in my opinion and I put an order in. There were some extras I wanted and Jeff was happy to include them.

Donald wanted to entice a mate back to the club so organised a SP2 game for him. We had to use minis from a few collections to get a 50pt force for each side. Thanks to Capt Reid from the TwoFatLardies forum for the Jacobite list.</div>

A few turns in and Stewart's clan heads for the boggy ground so that the Laird can clean off the dog muck from his brogues. Unfortunately this brings them into range of the Government forces.</div>

MacDonald leads his men round the wood to outflank the Government line. Meantime the Stewart's have survived to first volley only just and move to support the main attack from Murray. But both clans have taken a fair bit of casualties and shock.</div>

The Stewart's withdraw from the field but Murray keeps going and fails to get in a charge. This leaves his clan in a dangerous position and the Government forces duly oblige with 2 rounds of brutal musketry. Jacobite morale is plummeting as the dead and shock mount up as groups withdraw. However the MacDonalds have managed to get in a Highland Charge using their Broadswords. These are amended Thin Red Line and Tomahawks rules. However the Government forces have sacrificed a group and Officer in an effort to stem the charge. Amazingly the tactic worked and the group only fell back.</div>

So last week Sandy put on a big game to introduce us to the new rules there were 10 of us with 2 who had played the new version 3 the 2nd Ed and the rest neewbs. It was a desert game and this week we decided on a smaller game 4 players in Belgium. I have a bit of Belgian kit from Pithead Miniatures and Derek has Brits and Germans. The game was roughly based around the defence of Lyse.<br>

I moved my 2 tanks 2 armoured cars and some infantry around and Derek was now stuck between the Brits and Belgians and thinks looked to have evened out.<br>

German Recce force has been severely depleted and the infantry has stalled in front of the Belgian held village. A list ditch attempt by the Germans to force armour up the near road ends in disaster. With 4 MMG in the woods an A/T gun in the village two tanks by the road and an A/T vehicle on the other side of the road the Germans take heavy losses and retire.</div>
<div>
The game was designed for more players but Derek and I struggled on despite only <span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">having the QRS. however Jim and Campbell's game finished early and we drafted them in.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">We play the level a bit bigger so 3 infantry bases is a company and tanks are 2-4 models per company.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">The Belgians had 18infantry bases while the Germans had 18 infantry and 9 on Motorbikes. </span></div>

Here they are all done in the new NZ cammo. A bit of a story here as I fancied doing a bit of 28mm modern as a change from my 15mm stuff. We did a lot of AK47 some time ago and then tried Force on Force which we liked but were so complicated we had to start again with the rules every time we played. A neewb to the club has done a couple of modern games with different rules and I wanted a shot. I like stuff that no one else has so looked at Eureka Bundeswehr. Only problem is that they sell in packs of 10 but you only get 1 SAW, as you need 1 per team this was going to be a waste of minis. Then I went to Empress and thought Aussies, after checking I changed to Kiwi as they have the same gear but a different cammo scheme. Great I went to order them on Friday BUT PayPal played up so much I was not able to get them and got locked out of PayPal, wan***.

It's easy to add a bit of plastic to make one, I used a spear from my Perry spares. The metal is very hard and there was a fair bit of flash to clean. Biggest bugbear was that the flash runs over the face on most minis and makes cleaning a very fiddly job.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I like that 1 mini per pack has rolled up sleeves so those ones will be my team leaders.

This is the first I have taken part in and as American CiC I wanted to boost morale after a few reverses for our Militia forces. To this end I had concentrated my Continentals and played Forched March and Surprise Attack on the Americans and delay on British units that could have moved to help the garrison of Newark. It should be a walkover with 16 Continentals and 2 guns v 3 British units. Both sides had their CinC on the table and I could potentially capture Howe.<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv1NlXnbBd_gj0eieSpcEvAh3zYupVBEzCD1CiVe4R4QA91vkrKdV2i7ygNtuuQCbk4jOec04UXgu4BTktLqBVu4J67ktrj2rUMe7VbNfWsE-xPTljoIf67qBoMNP3g3abPr_bEQ/s640/blogger-image-1789566298.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv1NlXnbBd_gj0eieSpcEvAh3zYupVBEzCD1CiVe4R4QA91vkrKdV2i7ygNtuuQCbk4jOec04UXgu4BTktLqBVu4J67ktrj2rUMe7VbNfWsE-xPTljoIf67qBoMNP3g3abPr_bEQ/s640/blogger-image-1789566298.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Initial setup with Bart deployed in the village and counting as in hard cover.

Why the title, well during Saturday evening a bunch of us, 10, were enjoying a beer or 3 at the Bar du Port which we have kind of adopted as our local. One of august company was having trouble with the barmaid's name, Nushka, and kept calling her Nosher. Understandable as we kept getting small bowls of popcorn with each round and the pub always has a free snack of an evening. Anyway on his way to the bar said chap was greeted by Nushka calling out "what's up Tweedy" possibly in revenge for the Nosher appellation or the fact he was wearing a tweed jacket.

His Elites suffered a couple of casualties and almost retired off table but I just could not get enough hits with armour 4 and a -1 at long range they just kept on coming.

Eventually he did enough damage on my 2 battle squads to cause them to break. My Retributors were the last unit and held on for test after test even after one of the autoblasters blowing up.

Angus had booked his local bowling club for the nearest day to the anniversary and off we set. The bowling club flagpole was adorned with the white ensign, tricolour and early Spanish flag and looked rather fetching, indeed the steward had a few calls asking why the flags were flying.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7EO3hyHaexpDLo6VaXkX_G_5SsovrWS2_Tk1DgMyIS3FoXD5Q47nkeBSOrpFvg5bZUOBrjzwQuCIJKmZefZFZnCiw4_BSruqtbu4V94zm9ynGNiXPw3kosYboGK5LCKcLoBz_VQ/s640/blogger-image-277733691.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7EO3hyHaexpDLo6VaXkX_G_5SsovrWS2_Tk1DgMyIS3FoXD5Q47nkeBSOrpFvg5bZUOBrjzwQuCIJKmZefZFZnCiw4_BSruqtbu4V94zm9ynGNiXPw3kosYboGK5LCKcLoBz_VQ/s640/blogger-image-277733691.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Derek got all the ships data from the Lasthussar blog and reduced them per my request. I divided them up so that players would get to use their own ships and those providing ships for both sides would choose the side they wanted to play. 9 players started and had 4-5 ships to begin with the French further dividing their forces when Campbell and Bart arrived. The allied fleet moving West-East with the Brits in 2 columns arriving from the North.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH7tv5ueXu5nuDFym3vkz4CLAf_yNxuJFEcd_IdVhzKJcyxdwDxngVVw9n4H9Rv_V6CIM21kMW70O3C5W95xrjlzORUp7A3Vgr1ZzvgsL0DYfxjtjhPt9Kl1t5gBThwzcenRTQ-Q/s640/blogger-image-531194772.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH7tv5ueXu5nuDFym3vkz4CLAf_yNxuJFEcd_IdVhzKJcyxdwDxngVVw9n4H9Rv_V6CIM21kMW70O3C5W95xrjlzORUp7A3Vgr1ZzvgsL0DYfxjtjhPt9Kl1t5gBThwzcenRTQ-Q/s640/blogger-image-531194772.jpg"></a></div>HMS Victory starts the action off. The allied fleets have failed to maintain their formations despite valiant efforts early on. I tried to cut across the allied line with the Royal Sovereign squadron but was sailing too fast and too close to the rear ship of HMS Victory's squadron. Royal Sovereign was badly damaged in the collision and just managed to avoid a strike test, phew. Donald outpaces the main British line and gets stuck in to Campbell's French and Derek's Spanish.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrlYNaJO2h8uNQdv9kLGGSOH0iGDm6xj8JETcqjHr9qTwmTkooXXhoRG78cOA2xzgPvmFi7rTunTgDFPwJxojBMNoye92HyXiyDRnP6XWh3vLksM8d84w-iqIXadC_Puf2xJt7yw/s640/blogger-image--644623699.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrlYNaJO2h8uNQdv9kLGGSOH0iGDm6xj8JETcqjHr9qTwmTkooXXhoRG78cOA2xzgPvmFi7rTunTgDFPwJxojBMNoye92HyXiyDRnP6XWh3vLksM8d84w-iqIXadC_Puf2xJt7yw/s640/blogger-image--644623699.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The huge firefight in the centre leads to boarding actions galore.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz8xqcyhyphenhyphen6CmIQXF3AgPym3gbh2XsPs7aW7nHVH5CAJMpV5SUCRAumi6B-qA9_-NSfESN8aQAhQxqPCXXvGc5hM4OACIxKYMBgGNBwHCbEEI7o4fFiVFB3zqmzlzVSYb3cIJ5tAQ/s640/blogger-image-132123261.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgz8xqcyhyphenhyphen6CmIQXF3AgPym3gbh2XsPs7aW7nHVH5CAJMpV5SUCRAumi6B-qA9_-NSfESN8aQAhQxqPCXXvGc5hM4OACIxKYMBgGNBwHCbEEI7o4fFiVFB3zqmzlzVSYb3cIJ5tAQ/s640/blogger-image-132123261.jpg"></a></div>Michael's squadron cuts off from supporting Donald to try and get round the Spanish commanded by Chris.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhlKu69Vz7l7VZm3hkOQuMEoc9Hsv-jkvTWkyLHfGyHuHGLCxZtaUBSjQQcTFlq8lXRV5QDnbClYTXZJCbACAF11hi3mexGMYeDbmHERUm3Yy7TGtqtpeFsl8n0Jjhbf4VsBnZSw/s640/blogger-image--1598173126.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhlKu69Vz7l7VZm3hkOQuMEoc9Hsv-jkvTWkyLHfGyHuHGLCxZtaUBSjQQcTFlq8lXRV5QDnbClYTXZJCbACAF11hi3mexGMYeDbmHERUm3Yy7TGtqtpeFsl8n0Jjhbf4VsBnZSw/s640/blogger-image--1598173126.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Ships striking galore after vicious combats.

We called a halt at this point. 7 hours of great fun with a great bunch of chaps. Thanks to all especially John Ewing of the Falkirk club who helped out with the rules a great help near the end as I was running 5 ships in the thick of the action and trying to umpire.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">HMS Neptune captured the Neptuno and San Augustine.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">HMS Minotaur captured the San Francisco.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">HM Spartiate captured the Scipion.</div>HMS Victory captured the Principe de Asturias and San Leandro.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">HMS Defence captured the San Juan Nepomunceno.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">HMS Conqueror captured the Redoubtable.
