Couldn't resist putting this on the table.  Jumped ahead of so many other waiting games....

Target for Today

I like that the rules are in mission order, so you can just read through as you play your first mission, tutorial style.

B-17G  "Crap Shoot" pilot Joe Kelly
Friday, December 1st, 1944. Target Alm oil refinery, fighter cover good until the target, then poor
So far, takeoff, great weather, no mishaps



Post script.  "Crap Shoot" got to the target and dropped bombs without much mishap.  Then once flak lifted, they were savaged by Luftwaffe attacks.  An FW-190 managed to "walk" cannon shells along the fuselage.  "Crap Shoot's" pilot was killed and the right waist gunner lost his leg.  Then the fuel transfer pump was lost, so the B17 could not use all of its on-board fuel.  The B17 only had enough fuel to get close to England then ditch.  Several more crew members were severely wounded in the rough landing.  The right waist gunner died from his wounds.  Only a handful of guys will make it to the next B17.

Brutal.

Hopefully one of the crewmen makes it all the way through the campaign.  ;)

It's the Astra Militarum vs. Chaos.  Took me about 45 minutes to play solo and the Astra Militarum won very easily.

Cool stuff, SDR!

I've had this damn thing on my table for a week, though I've had it for a couple of months. Finally got started on the first set of bags...there's three sets total.



Had to clear it off to do an unboxing video/do some real gaming.

Yeah yeah. 

I've got a backlog of about 80 other figs to paint first.  Did a little work last night for the first time in months and it shows.  I suck at painting anything with fire.  Tried to do a wet blend from yellow to orange to reddish orange.  The blend wasn't too bad but it filled in all the recesses and obscured a lot of detail yet the raised bits still need another coat as the primer's still visible beneath.
