Back from OML7

Where, needless to say, an excellent time was had by all :D

Many stunning tables, a lot of CoC and Sharp Practice, some complete insanity (yes, that is Trumpton... and it's partly my fault).

I ran an Italy '44 IABSM Lite scenario - essentially two platoons and a recce section each - in which the two sides were hunting a downed Fiesler Storch and the two German officers who'd escaped the forced landing with plans for some of the Gothic Line defences... Fascinating games both - definitely interesting demonstrations of the effect of some cards (e.g. Reconnaissance Bonus vs Rapid Deployment), and easily done in the time available.

OML 7 is.... eep... the day after tomorrow...

And I have a band rehearsal tomorrow night which I had almost completely forgotten about.

So, best laid plans of mice and men and all that, tonight was spent tarting up the player handouts for my game, making sure I have all the figures I need (where DID I put the SdKfz 251 variants?), finding the trees, and generally getting organised. Just for once I'd like not to be madly packing the car mid-Friday afternoon.

Small side note on the grass from yesterday - the layering spray is a perfectly good fixative, and despite what I said in the video, no need to seal the end result with PVA.
