I took this photo in a nearby cargo terminal, Finland. Thing totals 40 wheels. Got stuck on that snow, and I had to drive around the terminal and leave from the entry gate.

What is this? An acronym?

I've got back to SPWAW, again. One thing in the Steel Panthers series has started to irk me: infantry passengers on vehicles do nothing, except are easy targets on tanks. They don't spot for artillery, they don't shoot, and I suspect they don't detect enemies either. Sure, SPWAW at least has FO and ...

Been playing several different games and not sticking with any of them for long. Most recent is SPWAW. Giving yet another try to Sickel Stroke 1940 campaign. Though the campaign description recommends two Panzer III platoons and a panzergrenadier company, I went with one Panzer III platoon, Panzer ...

YouTube has some interesting videos about LonaRPG, so I decided to try demo. Isometric action RPG, tile maps, 4-direction movement/attack. 2 handed polearms have longer reach, so that's nice. Do you know this anime/manga Goblin Slayer? Player character, Lona, would fit right in to the party of young ...

The BMW and Hanomag versions reinforce that Germany was actively pursuing a Jeep-like solution, even if complexity and cost worked against it.

The solution had a name: Einheits-PKW. It was a program to produce standardized military vehicles from multiple different manufacturers with ...

For some reason I keep seeing Kübelwagen compared to Jeep. But Germany had vehicles that are closer comparisons to Jeep. One is Stoewer R200 Spezial. Open-topped light military car/truck, 4-wheel drive, 4-wheel steering, often equipped with a radio, and in use of the command staff and reconnaissance ...

I bet John Cockerill used to play with M.A.S.K. toys or equivalents and thought he can build that

I know TacOps as a BattleTech rule book. Are you talking about something else?

I have played CM2 a bit. Gunner, HEAT, PC! is something different, but you might want to check it out.

What really turned me off to SPWAW was when the defender was allowed to have potentially limitless fire far exceeding anything physically possible.


I remember this one time when I got an infantry platoon to Northern map edge. Enemy reinforcements arrived from that edge, and a dozen or whatev ...

Any game, like any miniature game?

Past couple of weeks I've been playing lots of different games. At least a little of each. I watched a video about Ultima Underworld which made me realize the game is more awesome than I remember: doors can be broken in! I gave a run for modded SPWAW (courtesy of Major_Mess), and I'm rusty. Beyond ...
