Brave French try and halt the British escorting the Colonel's lady friend across the table ...and failed. We stopped them but our morale broke. GW tape because inch-tapes are hard to come by in my country, plague priest for a healer. #SharpPractice #spreadthelard #nerdlings #miniatures #wargaming

I bought some Perry Bros items: Portuguese Artillery, Cavalry and Telegraph Station. I need one extra figure for artillery crew. Should I use the telegraph crew being used as a bipod and replace him with a spare standing horse? #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming #28mm #nerdling

The mounted troops were made from Perry French dragoons with a victrix head

Who is this mystery man? Hint, they guarded the roads in Spain #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming #28mm #nerdling

British Guards for Sharp Practice. I finally finished a base!!! Let's see how they fight. #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming #28mm #nerdling

Scotland Forever. (workbench) Victrix. Gordons, I can't help humming Cock-o-the-north while painting these guys. French Warlord in the background. #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming #nurdling

Sharp Practice - Portugal in the winter Scenario 3: Attack-Defence, we rolled 16 points of support so there were guns galore. With British Light Infantry behind earthworks it was doomed. It started well but the French had no chance. #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

Fiddly to put to together means fiddly to paint. That's what I find. The Warlord Portuguese Fusilier was easy to put together and easy to paint. The Perry French 1807-14 guy was the opposite. I saw it rated low in by a YouTuber for this reason. Just my view #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

I repainted this old church to suit Portugal or Spain. The dog was fascinated. #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

KGL Dragoons. Victrix Now, I just need to paid them. #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

Peninsular Game. Sharp Practice The French 4th Lancers deployed in a great position to attack the British centre with artillery support. Engagement scenario Tony made a table split by obstacles with only one gap You need to be Australian to get his teeshirt #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

Anzac Day 2026 We remember VX55956 Private Robert Paterson, 2/29th Battalion, 2AIF Missing Presume Killed 22 Feb 1942 Malaya. Last seen alive in the convoy of wounded on the bridge at Parit Sulong. My Father's brother. #Anzac #Ausnews

Sharp Practice G2 didn't end well for the French On the flank, British big formation in attack column hit the French, who ran! In the centre, the French faced the music from the Buffs ...but they held. Sadly the French artillery crew did not. #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming #28mm #nerdling

After limbering up and towing French cannon into a useful position, a hot contest developed between the artillery. Meanwhile the Voltigeurs try to drive the British lights out of the hovel, but their boss gots knocked out! #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming #28mm #nerdling

Sharp Practice Peninsular G2 Deployment French cannon came on first limbered. British Light skirmisher are the house French are on top of themselves facing the wrong way British main force arrived in attack column The cannon duel went on all game #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

Sharp Practice Game 2. The Table, the British, the French and the Goats The mat by Geek Villain geekvillain.co.uk The move trays by www.battlefieldaccessories.com.au #spreadthelard #armypainter #wargaming

1st game of Sharp Practice. My foe, Two Tiger Tony did his usual and bought the biggest gun available; a 12pdr and proceeded to blow my French away. The 7th Hussars flank attack failed by a whisker. We did more wrong than right but it's a good start #spreadthelard #thearmypainter #wargaming

Some pictures from our annual #dnd marathon session. The Heroes are traversing a Beholder's den, deep in the realm of Shadowfell. A brutal grind. Vampires, Trolls, Zombies and Helmed Horror akimbo!

A video pan one of my players took as we began our multi-hour #dnd marathon. The vestibule is quiet, lined with fallen debris, old barrels of junk and a row of enlarged statues at the end of the hall... Diablo soundtrack for vibes 🎵
