Status Update: Back to Business as Usual

I haven't posted to my blog for a while, as I've recently returned to work following on from a long term illness which had me rather incapacitated for a few months. I'm rectifying this now and getting back into my wargaming and rules development. 

While off I've also had a think about further projects and things to try out over the rest of the year.

First is to continue with my rules adaptations of the Neil Thomas wargaming rules and contribute to the Yahoo Group. I've still got a lot of completion to perform on some of the Science Fiction and Fantasy adaptations and I'm expanding the historical versions to include more background and scenario information.

I've also been interested in getting into some skirmish wargaming and I'm considering using Bolt Action with my 20mm Airfix collection and Sharpe's Practice with my Napoleonics. Both look like fun games and seem to be feasible as solo games.

I've also tried to acquire some boardgames I used to play back in the 1980s. I've purchased Conquistador and War of the Ring, both by SPI. This added to my collection of favourites such as Squad Leader, Third Reich, War & Peace and StarForce Trilogy, should expand my interests sufficiently so the format of the blog may expand to include posts on these topics.

Finally I'm thinking about establishing a YouTube Vlog to post some recordings of my battles using the Thomas Rules. Just an idea just now and I need to investigate the mechanics etc.
