| I played Crossfire nearly twenty years ago at ConnectiCon '05 and picked up the rulebooks shortly after. They've sat on my shelf since then, until earlier this year when I cracked them open after re-watching some Little Wars TV. Since I had the Americans painted I thought I'd try some sabot bases li... |

| Neat. What's the hull topper on the left there? Centaur hull or maybe Malcador Defender? |

| I finally finished the horses for my 15mm Polybian Roman allied cavalry this week. I still need to do the shields for them, but that's going to involve a conversion as I don't have enough of the two types to split them how I like for easy unit identifcation. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img... |

| Nice. I wish we saw more non-grimdark backgrounds ported over. It's not like there's a lack of miniatures. |

| Thanks guys. I'd like to eventually play Lasalle with these TravelBattle French but there's not quite enough there for a standard game. Between that and painting an opposing force I thought I'd remove one obstacle by laser cutting some sabots to use with Blücher. https://blogger.googleusercontent.co... |

| LiveCoconut on reddit had it correct. Each move let's you embark or disembark at the start or end of that move. You can't do both in the same move, but you can do both during the same activation. Advance, engage, counter-charge, consolidation and potentially marshal and hold are *one* move, so pick ... |

| It's the kiddo's first birthday tomorrow. One *might* be a bit too young for Epic but we're putting together a time capsule for him that he'll open on his eleventh birthday. That seems just about right to start playing, given my experience, so we'll see how he likes this Land Raider then. https://bl... |

| To expand on that. The player who's firing at a formation with WEs and non-WEs declares which attacks are being directed against WEs or not. E.g. I have 4 AT5+ attacks and 2MW4+ attacks, I can declare 2 AT5+ and 1 MW4+ on non-WEs, and the remaining 2 AT5+ and 1 MW4+ on the WEs. You can split AT atta... |

| The Hastatus shields are done as of tonight. I've got four bases of cavalry to do next, then everything needs some top coats and basing. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW-GImvYUpBwUjDDIgqcjgDMrZDkhtbY9h-TliOolPlpM_zNkXQXKlzPv788zk_3kfWLfx8HNuWsnPzfmG60SaQ3c4LE6Zh8NrzwKel9... |

| Thanks Apoc. I ended up glazing but also trying to keep it away from the recesses. Work continues on the shields. I finished them for the Principes and Extraordinarii this week. On to the Hastati next. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCNy8CusncN5zuO-YEzb3QEZpo3u3Wb-YS9UuhK... |

| The best method is what makes you the happiest with regards to the time you put in and the end result. Painting the smaller scales uses the same techniques as the bigger scales. Amp up the contrast (brighter highlights/darker shadows) is really my only piece of advice. |
