Odds and Ends

 From the Enfilade bring-and-buy tables, I found quite a few bargains.


First, an Imex set of Confederate artillery was available for $3. Some figures were missing from the sprues, but I was able to field three guns for for 1/72 plastic rebel army.







These ancient Greeks were either unbased (the archers) or based with some odd grout or putty (the cavalry). I bought the whole shebang for $12 and based them for my collection.

Budget 10mm Buildings!

God, this site is broken. Fellow blogger.com-ers, how are you all uploading pictures? I have to copy and paste them one by one, and they still don't load in the right order.


A-way back in May, Dale and I headed to Tacoma, WA, the jewel of the Pacific Northwest, to attend Enfilade, the local historical gaming convention. The games were kind of a bust, but the shopping was great.


I picked up these buildings for between $1 and $3 each, as the vendor had them marked as miscasts. Yes, if you look closely enough, you can find little imperfections, but they will do. They are all scaled for 10mm-15mm figures. I never seem to have enough buildings for my tabletop.
