If you are a current HMGS member, please consider voting for me, James Stanton, and these three other candidates for the HMGS Board of Directors:<br />
<br />
Jared Fishman<br />
John Spiess<br />
Dave Waxtel<br />
<br />
Jared Fishman and I are looking to expand the HMGS Teachers Program as well as other education endeavors that HMGS should be looking into. In my opinion the current Board has done a great job with this and the incumbents should keep their seats. <br />
<br />
For years at HMGS conventions members have been talking about the “graying of the hobby” and how the younger generation is often distracted by screens before they get the chance to wander into the local hobby shop and discover miniature wargaming. There are many examples of teachers who run after school clubs that give kids who may be interested in gaming and games an opportunity to get together and play. Clubs are a great way to foster a “gaming community” in a school and can help with the painting of figures and building of terrain but can be limited in its reach. One way to expose larger numbers of young people to the hobby is to help educators incorporate miniature wargaming into their classrooms and units. This method can cast a wider net as all students in a grade level would have hands on experience with historical miniature wargaming.<br />
<br />
Mission Statement<br />
The mission of the HMGS Cold Wars Teachers Program is to provide focused seminars and hands-on workshops for teachers, interested parents, and students in an effort to promote the use of historical miniature wargaming as a teaching tool in the classroom. That mission statement completely aligns with that of HMGS,Inc.: “HMGS, Inc. is a non-profit, charitable and educational 501(c)3 organization whose purpose is to promote the study of military history through the art of tabletop miniature wargaming.”<br />

Anyone who knows me or follows this blog knows that when I go to a HMGS conventions I am really there to run Gnome Wars games, give the occasional painting class, and have a few 'soda pops.' So it is rare that I actually sit down and play in a game. I did not run any games on Thursday (although I did give a painting class at noon) because my sister and my nephew were coming to their first gaming convention. We walked by this beautiful set-up, I saw that Mr. Burton was the GM, and I thought, "this will be their first Historical game." </div>

We were British and, as you can see in the picture above, there are a lot of Zulus and a few of us. The two gentlemen sitting next to my nephew wanted to take the British (with rockets) that were detached from the camp to the right. We had a brief "do you want to come back toward the camp" discussion and they kinda said, "hell no, we'll slow them down out here." My kind of guys!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Back in the camp we had three regular British units on the left of the line near hill. A veteran wargamer took those three units. On the right of the line curving in were three regular British units and an artillery unit. My nephew took the three regular units and a cavalry Unit. </span>That left me in the middle with the Natal Native Contingent (NNC), the Natal Native Horse (NNH), the Rear Detail, the Civilian Contractors, the Pioneers (Pioneers!!), and the artillery led by Stuart-Smith. Basically all the troops no one else wanted.</div>

........ in the center, Zulus. Here you see what I had. I figured the the NNC and the NNH that were already in the line were there for the duration, and I left one unit of NNC just behind them as a backup/reserve.<br />

Side note: A convention game can look great, have fantastic rules, and have an awesome GM, but can become derailed by crappy opponents. This did not happen during this game and, as a matter of fact, the three guys in the above picture were awesome opponents. Everyone in our section picked up the rules quickly (great job Mr. Burton) and were fun to play with. "Maverick" was terrific!<br />

The Zulus start the assault on the main line and regular British line do what regular British line do (as long as they have ammo) which is make Zulus disappear with volley fire. The Zulus start to head towards the NNC and NNH in the line....<br />

On the Left the British win the race to the Wagon and start to form up in a donga. The NNH are the first to get there, unhorse, and take cover. The Pioneers get to the base of the hill and fire their two rifles. Two hits and the Zulu unit has to go prone (green chip) - PIONEERS!!<br />

On the left of the main line it has been brutal. The Zulus are thinned out by withering fire but, as predicted, there are holes in the line. The first line of NNC are gone which exposes the British line flanks and it turns into chaos. I will say that the gentleman that was in command of these units was rolling unbelievably. 16 d6's, 14 hits was his normal. Unfortunately once the NCC folded there was nothing he could do but make various last stands.<br />

In the middle of the British regulars was the artillery unit lead by Officer Stuart-Smith. I took this unit figuring, artillery. It was only after I assumed "command" that I was told that the artillery was basically useless. But Stuart-Smith stood tall letting the British line troops fire volley into any approaching Zulus.<br />

To the right it was going as well as it could be. The units outside of the camp took their pound of flesh from the Zulus and started to come back to reinforce the line. Ryan,commanding the British regulars, pours fire into the Zulu hoard. There are just too many of them and they make contact...<br />

Above and below are shots of the final turn. You see the bottom (our left) the scrubs have formed up, are in cover, and would have lasted a few turns until we were overrun. But I thing I accomplished what I needed to for that flank. On the right they did well. The line is still in tact and they were battling away. The middle I didn't do so well as the NCC and NNH under my command were overrun and were the cause of the hole there. I assume Zulus will pour in there and engulf the British.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>With Henry V back in England, the army was now commanded by his brother Thomas, 1st Duke of Clarence. He engaged a combined Franco-Scots army at Bauge. Instead of waiting for his entire army to assemble, he attacked with only a portion of troops, leading to a great defeat and his own death. What would have happened if he had waited just a few more hours for his archers to return from foraging?</i></span><br />

Our first moves were to send the archers out to start peppering the Franco-Scots and see what they would do....<br />

The original English plan of "let's take it to them" was quickly modified (after we lost a couple of units) to "let's move out, draw them in, then reform our line and see if we hold."<br />

The English were able to knock out units with archer fire which meant we were able to knock out 6 units (victory condition) before they were. So it ended up an English victory.<br />

The Germans had a unit in the forward farm near the fountain. They also had a unit in the woods to the left. The Germans defending the buildings sent a unit out to meet the attackers in the woods to the right. I thought it was going to be a disaster, but it ended up being a great strategy. Of course, another great "strategy" was the German heavy mortar hitting 9 out of 10 shots (needing a 6). It was devastating.<br />

For most of my molds I use Smooth-On Dragon Skin 10 Slow. Dragon Skin is a softer and more more pliable than other Smooth-on products and I go with the "Slow" because I'm going to use the a vacuum chamber and I prefer the 45 minute pot life so I am not rushed.</div>

The Dragon Skin is easy to use and measures at a 1:1 ratio. I mix part A and Part B in a stainless steel bowl. The stainless steel bowl is great in the vacuum chamber and can be used over & over again because the cured mold rubber just peels right off of it.<br />
<br />

<br />
...and then a pour from height. The reason for this is two-fold; bubbles pop in the thin steam pouring from the bowl into the mold, and bubbles don't get trapped around the figures as the rubber rises slowly around the figures.<br />

<br />
My friend Mike Lung is mildly obsessed with a homegrown sci-fi/pulp western game he has been developing and he has been sculpting and modifying figures for the game. He asked me to see if I can make resin casts of the figures and gave me a few to try.<br />
<br />
First, using wood glue, I glued the figures to a piece of Luan Panel cut so that it will fit into the vacuum chamber. I use a very thin layer of glue so that the figures hold, there is a "seal" around the base of the figure, but the glue doesn't seep out and "add" to the figure and the base.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9W5B7_EUNOZ0C_63J5YeXWwViDgUz8tMUvhvCiSKALXu9lw9KPSFuEq7NYzctGCGV1v2LOXkw83HQ6VxScz04KLfykpE89JafOl7ZyrGesR_6kYb5L-EpuerFZSHCxBpHYwIv4OLJZX0/s1600/DSCN5516.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="968" data-original-width="1600" height="193" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9W5B7_EUNOZ0C_63J5YeXWwViDgUz8tMUvhvCiSKALXu9lw9KPSFuEq7NYzctGCGV1v2LOXkw83HQ6VxScz04KLfykpE89JafOl7ZyrGesR_6kYb5L-EpuerFZSHCxBpHYwIv4OLJZX0/s320/DSCN5516.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The figures are spaced so that there is roughly a finger width between them. They can be closer but in my experience this will help with the integrity of the mold over time.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnm13tG1Yfp6kBiV55mW0UB2iRgfhoznpKy1IeDZ827zo7SFVgqgq43izvDXgUsllSm-Z7PAcaASV0s2bMPPMWt56DoI_TTSSHg-JJ7I12GpJ86cYebNEJz7feWsrILiwlN66j5PnHT-8/s1600/DSCN5522.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1210" data-original-width="1600" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnm13tG1Yfp6kBiV55mW0UB2iRgfhoznpKy1IeDZ827zo7SFVgqgq43izvDXgUsllSm-Z7PAcaASV0s2bMPPMWt56DoI_TTSSHg-JJ7I12GpJ86cYebNEJz7feWsrILiwlN66j5PnHT-8/s320/DSCN5522.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Next I use foamcore to make the box. I measured for height....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
....and begin to score the foamcore. I only score the outside paper and attempt to keep the inner layer of paper intact.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrAYCum6I1y5D5xFatmeKNQUkGZ8ZDNiqk_Ka4AxvgJtU02syc1o8aRKLH6tTqb4eT0S6V0O4a5j1elrNnjOhZr-4cpFbDGI9gGWS4917_22OFNA8QAagnsCPEYPhiVUX9yWwv3Prw8tk/s1600/DSCN5528.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="727" data-original-width="1600" height="145" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrAYCum6I1y5D5xFatmeKNQUkGZ8ZDNiqk_Ka4AxvgJtU02syc1o8aRKLH6tTqb4eT0S6V0O4a5j1elrNnjOhZr-4cpFbDGI9gGWS4917_22OFNA8QAagnsCPEYPhiVUX9yWwv3Prw8tk/s320/DSCN5528.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Here is the foamcore around the figures forming the "box." Every time I want to make it smaller I just score and bend.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixnNh_FxoTDtY6JI86aAB8b3-eQ9tXAe6vncDa3AvbyQwrRHCoYLq7QyBFjLS4Q5Zw_kVcdWwHmdZ8x1EtUPueoFFd48wXjuSbnjtkes0RPHDGDVrKPXKJF0bpZMB2mWgnc1ed_jSmK68/s1600/DSCN5531.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1600" height="199" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixnNh_FxoTDtY6JI86aAB8b3-eQ9tXAe6vncDa3AvbyQwrRHCoYLq7QyBFjLS4Q5Zw_kVcdWwHmdZ8x1EtUPueoFFd48wXjuSbnjtkes0RPHDGDVrKPXKJF0bpZMB2mWgnc1ed_jSmK68/s320/DSCN5531.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Using thin masking tape I seal and secure the bottom of the box. Then using the thicker tape I shore up and seal the box.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJUnZptkAy_H_lU4SxBqQZx8wWKPAWPx61R185PBbXaZHKKPLXy9d7Q_45wbOF3W6K9RIMDlvWhsjdhwMyWCtt7v6kInE9DvW2QnFAVhRObno6ms_5OjiLhAdG6zjCkCqoxigHV1o7FTM/s1600/DSCN5532.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="686" data-original-width="1600" height="137" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJUnZptkAy_H_lU4SxBqQZx8wWKPAWPx61R185PBbXaZHKKPLXy9d7Q_45wbOF3W6K9RIMDlvWhsjdhwMyWCtt7v6kInE9DvW2QnFAVhRObno6ms_5OjiLhAdG6zjCkCqoxigHV1o7FTM/s320/DSCN5532.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
This step can probably be skipped but I then wrap the box in painters tape. I do it because I wanted to give the box more structure in the vacuum chamber but if it is necessary I can't say.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Different factions land on the cheese planet. Sensing the danger the native beings, the <span id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1479256993938_3840">Frigonians, man the walls and get ready to defend their village. In the far right corner the Galacteers and the Valkeeri have set up a base while on the left corner the space orcs are moving in looking to scavenge anything useful. A ship lands next to the wreckage in the middle of the board - The Robot Legion has arrived. Haters of anything organic they are on the planet to find a deadly virus and secure a nuke!</span></div>

In the middle a group of Radon Zombies from the Ionosphere, along with their queen, have crash landed. In the wreckage the zombies are hiding a container of the "zombie virus" and, lo and behold, a couple of nukes. <br />
<em>Readers of this Blog will recognize Bill G (the smiling guy on the left) who was walking by and I asked him to run the zombies. He had another game in a couple of hours but played because I told him the zombies wouldn't last more than two turns.</em> <br />

Hot on the trail of the Robot Legion, the Grymn arrive and start dealing with the Robots. Oh no, a group of minibots have discovered the nukes. The Galacteers and orcs know they are in peril and move out to assist the Grymn. The Radon Zombies, taking full advantage of the shoot-out between the Robot Legion and everything else on this side of the board, start moving the Queen and the Virus to a safer spot.</div>

The Galacteers use their heavy weapon to destroy the Robot's ship, causing them to start a rear guard action while slowly moving towards their other ship. They leave the minibots behind to tie-up the enemy so they can escape. <br />

Friday, 12:00:00 PM, 4 hrs, 8 Players<br />
GM: James Stanton Sponsor: Brigade Games Prize: Gnomes!!<br />
On November 11, 1918 elements of Hodson's American Infantry,
10th Highlanders, and a battery of Swiss Field Artillery were
positioned in the Village of Tulgas. Suddenly, they were assaulted by
the 96th Saratov Infantry regiment, part of Trotsky's newly raised
Red Army. Heavily outnumbered and low on supplies, the allies had
two cards in the hole - Mr. Browning and his friend Mr. Vickers.
Anyone bringing a painted Gnomes at War unit from Brigade Games
does not have to preregister.<br />
