October Birthday Sale - New Item - Other things

Birthday Sale

Well, it is October 1st 2025. In a few days I will have had my 55th lap around the sun. As normal, I will run a birthday sale on my scenarios on my PayHip store. The coupon code to use is: 55thLapAround

I had hoped to get my Singling scenario book complete before the sale. But that is dragging on in playtesting. Hopefully, it will be available this month. If not, I will launch it here as half price for a while before moving it to WargameVault.

Sharp Practice

What I did do is work on another Sharp Practice scenario. This does not fit in with the other scenarios that I have published with TooFatLardies. It is a stand alone scenario that may become part of a larger book. I ran across an article on a small action fought on July 29th, 1781 in North Carolina. My focus has been Georgia and South Carolina to date. In reading the scenario, it seemed a perfect scenario for Sharp Practice and had the oportunity to include some fun things. The forces are small with just around three groups per side with less than 31 troops per side. There really is no hero of the story other than Temperance Alston who managed to save her kids and stop the fighting. I have listed the scenario for $2.00 on the site but with the coupon code above, you can pick it up for $1.00. Once I have play tested it some (which will be after the Singling scenarios release) I will reupload and increase the price. Here is the link to the scenario: https://payhip.com/b/cqMtg

Hobby Purchases

I periodically scan eBay for items that could round out some of the terrain or miniatures that I currently have. My river terrain that I am using is from the old JR Miniatures line. I have the full set of 6mm, 15mm and 28mm muddy rivers. These are nice as they give some size options for what I want to represent on the table. Even though I have the sets, you never can quite have enough river sections. i found two straight pieces of the 15mm rivers on eBay still in their original packaging. I made an offer and they are on their way to me. Very pleased. Never can have enough trees or rivers.

I am on the look out for some odds and ends to complete out the winter troops for my Americans and Germans. I have plenty of Infantry. I would like to get some BAR armed Americans so I can field a force other than armored Infantry. But since those are just a few figures, I will probably get miniatures from 3D Breed and print them myself.

Algernon

The facebook group for Algernon Pulls it Off has inspired me to revisit my WWI aircraft. I have a scenario set that I am working on for it based on the Austro-Hungarian pilot Heinrich Kostrba of Flik4. The scenarios are largely done but my game table is still covered with Singling terrain. It is another project on hold.
