Much-Piddling at War!

This is a trial set-up for a game to be played later this year. This will be my big game for DevLAM '18. The trial is to allow me to judge how many buildings I need and where they are going. So, you will notice plenty of unpainted scenery, much work to be done yet. However, I'm putting the pictures up because I'm quite pleased with the overall layout.

The vague scenario for this game is detailed in my January 2018 post entitled 'Much-Piddling Home Guard'.

Here is a highly-detailed and neatly drawn scale plan of the layout!

Fantastic, Martin and I’m pleased to see Sir d’Emfore’s Bentley in position.

This is looking very spiffing Mi Lord, the greenery really sets it off well.
Have you had chance to play a game on it yet?

No games played yet, still working on some of the buildings. Might try and get a quick game in tomorrow.
