Welcome / Bienvenu

This blog drags together, into one swirling maelstrom of crackling energy, my various wargames interests. There are links on the top right to my other blogs, each more calmly dedicated to one particular gaming universe.

I post on Fridays. The idea is that when I post a painted figure, it stays up for two weeks; a battle report, a terrain project, or a few lines on whatever happens to be the whim of the moment, is up for a week.

The pages at the top of the blog contain historical information on the periods that interest me. They are primarily an aid to my poor memory, and not meant to be in any way exhaustive, nor necessarily correct.

I hope this blog offers you much enjoyment and some inspiration !

Resist !

In the Expanse universe, the OPA (Outer Planets Alliance) are an underground organisation trying to free the Belters - the poorest people in the solar system - from the economic oppression of Earth and Mars.  Beneath this noble goal runs, of course, bloody rivalry between leading figures seeking to direct the fight.



I've already shown four OPA "regulars" on this blog.  With this lady (another Infinity figure, a Nomad doctor IIRC) I've started on the civilian militia composant of the squad.  She is wearing orange OPA-issue armour with her day to day clothing and very big hair, and will head into combat with her personal weaponry, a pair of pistols.

She is a militia fighter in the sense of "irregular", not in the sense of "poor quality" : she looks to me like she knows how to kick Terran or Martian backsides.  I doubt, however, that she could go head to head with a Martian marine.

She will be followed up by a militia engineer and her combat droid, after which I need to spend some money with Corvus Belli !
