Welcome to another Flames of War Friday Pacific Editon.
Over the past few weeks I've begun working on updating my Japanese infantry company in preparation for the new Banzai book and preparing for a brand new play style; fortified lists!
So let's take a look at how my troops are digging in for some defensive action…

Welcome to our first Flames of War Friday of 2016! I'd been on a bit of a break from Flames of War for a few months while working on other projects but with the upcoming release of new books for the Pacific theatre my 15mm mojo is back.
So let's take a look at what the sunny & sandy Pacific has in store for us…

Welcome to 2015's first installment of Flames of War Fridays. As I'm still deciding what projects I'll be working on this year lets take a closer look at one of last years projects; painting the Japanese Light Sensha platoon

Late last week the final thing I had left to finish off for the Early War Tournament was to prepare some objective markers. For fun I decided to do some flat painted objectives rather than scenic ones. For the first marker I found a Japanese WW2 propaganda image, printed off a template to attach to an objective base and used a paint-by-numbers approach to replicate it.
For the second I decided to be a bit more adventurous and used a combination of freehand acrylic and oil painting to reproduce an image featuring almost every Japanese art trope imaginable, with an extra addition of Godzilla in the bottom right corner.

It's the final countdown to Flamescon, just one week to go now!
If you're a Auckland fan of Flames of War, Dust Tactics or Gale Force Nine's awesome board games like Spartacus and you haven't signed up for this years event yet be sure to head over to the Flamescon Website as registrations close on Monday.
So with time running out I've finally had my first practice game with my Japanese army and it was quite the learning experience…

Since Flamescon was announced I've shifted things up a gear to get my forces ready and be able to play some more games with both my Market Garden list and my Japanese.

The big news this week for Kiwi Flames of War fans is that event programme for this years Flamescon has just been announced. The event is coming up soon on the 18th and 19th of October, which means I need to get a move on with finishing off my Japanese. So lets take a closer look at the event and my progress so far.

Welcome back to Flames of War Friday. My local club's Operation Market Garden campaign began last weekend so its time to see just how the Mighty Ape 11th Armoured performed and we'll also be taking a look at the upcoming Flames of War: Great War.
