I did not spend much time cleaning up the print because it was not going to be used as a master, just to test fit components such as the shoulders, tasset and tabard; so there are some very rough spots on the outside of the shoulders, the sword blade edge and a few other places where the build lattice was attached.</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>The Heavy troopers are scaled to be a good match with the Stormtroopers. About 1mm taller than the Stormtroopers (some shrink can be seen in the print), and a bit more bulk overall. Keep in mind when comparing to other mini lines, the Stormtroopers will be on the tall side, so although these may look a little small, they are large enough to look like steal the milk money from many of the other popular mini companies lines and small enough to look like Eisenkern Stormtrooper sized person could actually fit into the suit. </strong></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong> </strong></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>WGF China informed me that they are making progress with the Heavy Troopers so it seemed appropriate to post this.

I find it boosts my morale. Fortunately, for Operation Zorndorf this is easy. By picking on the Observation Corps I can quickly reduce the number of infantry I have to do from 516 to 336. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here are the first 108 figures painted since the last Zorndorf post.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl-ABsv6dG6Ste4Veo-4qWmE-BYRDFiu69t9ePBQX0QjDSfPu6Mf1KhlJmG5tFPHxdNqlmH3Q5g9PdfPzrjx-DpHZNVkxKzLGca9Fzh_MOVununiN0EZSezf3jozAux7R6q8UjoPzcQ-QH/s640/IMG_8170.JPG" width="640" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Here are the first three (of four) regiments of the Russian Observation Corps. These are giant regiments, they each comprise a nominal three battalions rather than two, of 36 figures each (in fact, they are 35 figures strong because of what I actually managed to get hold of from Dave Thomas - they are all ebay purchases - but that is close enough). Firing regiments all have extended depth bases to prevent 'bayonet clash', and the bases have a notch to mark the actual size that they should be.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="clear: left; float: left; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu9dzVbv6Xsja55Ljbhm4fIoAapKxUKjRbHSAZ5_7h-_irUGnwVtKUQh6SIQqUx30OsngJNAjUzDh4zlZ-HAnfGZ-8k2PBHAlotbpsquKwdwMJg5pxeO-BNtkyqQLPbEyAVDWo41clIuzY/s400/IMG_8171.JPG" width="400" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> I will have two regiments in a shooting pose and two regiments in a marching pose. So that I can field them as units of 24 figures if I need to, I have chosen to give one regiment in each pose two flags - to make four units into six, each with a flag. So that regiments can be distinguished I have chosen to do four regiment flags as coloured Ordonnance flags - here are blue for 1st, green for 3rd, light blue for 4th and there will be yellow for the 5th (the 2nd Regiment, red flag, was never completed or mobilised). White flags were colonel's colours. I'm not 100% happy with my rendition of the flags, but I can always plead "hand painted".</span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="clear: left; float: left; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm24NNiYX09uOAQjk96c7XSnl9dFRIu2QOPIdRAamDRqCi7EIwUdVUxTmAM8GWM6aBOdyHYoR5kOdRlupwgK8YcH4FTlsfjD1pzjr-vaK94C1-yDogBRVFEB2AtxbDFr0WQUTQ8HUVzHYG/s400/IMG_8173.JPG" width="400" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> These are almost entirely Foundry figures.

Both Chuck (the Cianwood City Gym Leader) and Jasmine (the Olivine City Gym Leader) will be there. Will you be able to defeat both of them battling you at the same time?<br /><br /><b>Old Data Wipe </b><br />In about 6 months from now we will be doing a data wipe to any accounts that aren't used in 6 months. If you are a regular player then you will be fine just make sure you log in every once in a while so you don't lose your accounts. There is a lot of old data in the system that is just sitting there collecting dust and slowing everything down. <b>Your data will only be wiped if you do not log in for a whole 6 months or more. If you log in every 3 months or every 5 months you will be fine.</b><br /><br /><b>Sam and Dan Games Subscriber</b><br />Next year we will be coming out with a subscriber service. The service will cost about 1.99 a month with special discounts if you pay for a whole year in advance. The service will bring many benefits to the subscribers with more being added over time. Some of the benefits will include a higher shiny encounter rate, more breeding spots for breeding, better breeding items, a subscriber only server to ensure that subscribers have no problems playing at even the busiest times, automatically receive giveaway pokemon without having to be on at the right time and more! Future games will also give out benefits to subscribers and like I said we will be adding more and more over time.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: red;">What will change with the Subscriber service? Is the game no longer free?</span></b><br /><span style="color: red;">The game will <b>ALWAYS</b> be free! You can do everything you can do now for free. The subscriber feature is just for players that want to support us plus get some great <b>EXTRA </b>perks. The game will stay just how it is now for free players.</span><br /><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><b><span style="color: red;">So will non subscribers still get a chance at giveaways? What if you have over 500 subscribers?</span></b><br /><span style="color: red;">The subscribers will automatically receive the giveaway pokemon without entering a code. This means that the 500 that I giveaway will still be available to non subscribers and only non-subscribers.

But we are going to fight it again tonight - Huzzah! - so a report is in the pipeline.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Earlier this year I started to think about the demo-game we will do at Sheffield Triples next year. Triples is a two day show, so a big game is always worthwhile, and we always like to vary the period of our games so that we don't become known for just one thing. It has been years since we did a Seven Years War game at Triples using 28mm figures - Lobositz from memory - and the rebuilding of my SYW collection was in full swing, so I thought, why not?</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The 'why not' was not hard to find. My SYW collection was in pieces (converting 16 man units into 24 man units) and, quite frankly, there was not much of it. I had been successfully, if slowly, building the lead pile with purchases from ebay (mostly WF Russian and Prussian - my Austrians are no where using this strategy), but when I totted everything up, re-fighting a historical battle was only possible (with my mix of troops) if it was drastically scaled down. This is not the kind of thing I like to do at Sheffield, so I put the idea on the back burner.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJmsS8SqVsF0oEQFYkzicbrSPykJr4fJRez4e8-gSEfTQ5mrhOnIEU_9KNSdtf3JdaWNV7F19fhnl0Vc7e9OHvTCLHJGHxfodFBcoQM1a_6sIhyphenhyphenzw7cA6rvUcKZ7SVGeckX9RBZ6VaNXDn/s1600/IMG_7581.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJmsS8SqVsF0oEQFYkzicbrSPykJr4fJRez4e8-gSEfTQ5mrhOnIEU_9KNSdtf3JdaWNV7F19fhnl0Vc7e9OHvTCLHJGHxfodFBcoQM1a_6sIhyphenhyphenzw7cA6rvUcKZ7SVGeckX9RBZ6VaNXDn/s200/IMG_7581.JPG" width="200" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj426X8K8OyD_7RRw07do3aQRuTPrW9z4C0c8mE1HgUz-iCcwCKXcaDAYP3bDnX2c6J8h2BOZZzeAvX6zTYAM8S17zINRc8i4CqA272fyFQgMMI8exId8BJkV8L2nzglyRuOhQpyVGMhze4/s640/IMG_5485.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj426X8K8OyD_7RRw07do3aQRuTPrW9z4C0c8mE1HgUz-iCcwCKXcaDAYP3bDnX2c6J8h2BOZZzeAvX6zTYAM8S17zINRc8i4CqA272fyFQgMMI8exId8BJkV8L2nzglyRuOhQpyVGMhze4/s200/IMG_5485.JPG" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Two previous games at Sheffield Triples - Cerignola and Lake Trasimene</div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Come October, and with no definite plan, I had to decide on something. Again I counted up my Russians and Prussians, painted and unpainted, new purchases and old. Now, I was quite close, but not close enough to fudge it. Bollocks - time to splash the cash! It will be Zorndorf!</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, now I've decided, here is what I need to do. I will stage Zorndorf using my collection of SYW troops. Each regiment will be represented by a single unit of infantry or cavalry. (I organise my units by the correct[ish] frontages so most infantry regiments will be 24 figures on an 18cm frontage, and each five squadrons of cavalry will be represented by 8 cavalry on a similar frontage). Here is what I need:<i> Got and painted is the first number in black, <span style="color: red;">the total needed is the second number in red</span>, <span style="color: blue;">the third number, in blue, is the number of units that I'm still (even after a significant spend) required to purchase.</span></i></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This will be the last phase of the fundraiser which will end on January. If you want to obtain these legendaries and cosmoid for your account make sure you get them before then. I'm happy to announce the new prizes for the new tiers of funding. They will be shiny Yveltal and Xerneas from Pokemon X and Y! If you donated 20 or more you will get to pick one of them and get 3 of the one that you pick (very useful for trading). If you donated 25 or more you will get another 3 of the one that you pick. For reaching 25 you get 6 total and potentially 3 of each.<br /><br /><b>Fairy Type Arrives!</b><br />Because of the new Fundraiser tier and adding Xerneas I will introduce the Fairy type into PTD 2. I will add the type to all pokemon that now fall under it (ex. Togepi, Jigglypuff, etc) but I won't be giving them all their attacks this week. Only the ones that they share with Xerneas. Also I'll be changing other types that changed in generation 6.<br /><br /><b>Saving problems</b><br />With more people playing the game the server sometimes has trouble keeping up which causes save files not to work. This week I will make it so if your save file works you can still save without it telling you that you saved somewhere else.<br /><br /><b>Ecruteak City</b><br />In an effort to push the story along we have made it to Ecruteak City rather quickly with 3 routes being created last week. This week I'm bringing the Gym match versus Morty. Morty encounters Shadow Pokemon that were brought by Mewthree's destruction. What will happen next?!<br /><br /><b>Mystery Gift</b><br />This week we will have the final type, Normal.

And I do need to get inspired because I have over 500 more SYW figures to paint by the end of next spring if the Zorndorf demo-game is to become a reality. In need of a quick scenario to get the juices going I turned to my book shelves and took out an old favourite.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This scenario is largely based on Reserve Demolition by Charles Grant in his book Scenarios for Wargames (published, WRG 1981). This is a book of 52 scenarios, one for every week of the year, covering all periods of historical war gaming and including tactical teasers for everything from basic attack defence set ups, through ambushes and coastal raiding, to games involving helicopters and trains. It is one of my all-time favourite war game books and definitely worth picking up if you don’t already have a copy – although many of the scenarios are oft run and commonplace wargames fare (in one guise or another), having them all in one place as an aide memoire is always comforting when you are stuck for a scenario to do. Reserve Demolition is scenario number 20; it features in Part 2 of his book dealing with river scenarios.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What follows here is my adaption of the scenario for a game, with a fictional Seven Years War backdrop, to be played using Classic Piquet rules. Because of the armies and the rules, changes have been made to the detail of the scenario, but the general underlying ‘plot’, terrain and overall force sizes are mostly unchanged. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>GENERAL OUTLINE</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">“A “reserve demolition” is the modern parlance for a bridge prepared for demolition but which must not be destroyed until the time is right.” <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The year is 1759 and Frederick the Great has been rebuffed at Kunnersdorf. His army has ceased to exist as a fighting force capable of strategic action. Nothing but small forces now remain between the Russians and Berlin. Frederick has given orders that all bridges that might be used by the enemy are to be prepared for demolition. They are not to be blown without direct orders from the King as he might yet use them, if he is given time to concentrate a new army, for a counter-stroke.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>GROUND</b><o:p></o:p></span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhufIc42bbVxS2-eHY_8ypNNfTIIlDp0PJ6tNrjE3bwgza1fH5-GcZJjw05HaUoLfPxmyjj-9d3mYJt6RPNgBhv4phPyZGbJrInK3C2Uq3eNRWQQYHNrmxaJ6oLZWza-blIx27EpOIJHBN6/s1600/IMG_8092.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhufIc42bbVxS2-eHY_8ypNNfTIIlDp0PJ6tNrjE3bwgza1fH5-GcZJjw05HaUoLfPxmyjj-9d3mYJt6RPNgBhv4phPyZGbJrInK3C2Uq3eNRWQQYHNrmxaJ6oLZWza-blIx27EpOIJHBN6/s640/IMG_8092.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The object of the scenario is a single stone bridge that crosses a deep and swiftly flowing river. At either end of the bridge three ‘town sections’ make up a small village. Due east of the village, commanding a crossroads, is a walled farm (single ‘town section’). North of the farm is an open wood (type II terrain), south of it a small gently sloping hill (type I terrain). To the south east a large, steeply sloping, flat topped hill dominates the whole area (slopes are type II terrain). All other terrain is ‘virtual’. In the photo above, the 'chain-line' marks the limit of Prussian deployment east of the river.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>RUSSIAN FORCE</b><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioY_HQuNo43kVzP7T1VvTktx-njRmGX6FaGB_37mf8kBnUnVtqwLYeYci-puhiwC730zTPbuJPk1q8NTlYpwICxmAOd5cONnhKDA-tO3P95YTdTyuBd6Jy6tZV3yj3luPF246_XTjKQicY/s1600/IMG_8096.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioY_HQuNo43kVzP7T1VvTktx-njRmGX6FaGB_37mf8kBnUnVtqwLYeYci-puhiwC730zTPbuJPk1q8NTlYpwICxmAOd5cONnhKDA-tO3P95YTdTyuBd6Jy6tZV3yj3luPF246_XTjKQicY/s640/IMG_8096.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Forces:</b> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><ul><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Commander in chief, three field officers. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2 units of elite grenadiers – Fire D12, Melee D8, Morale D8. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">6 units of line infantry - Fire D10, Melee D8, Morale D6. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2 units of elite cuirassier – Fire D4, Melee D12, Morale D8. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1 unit of elite horse grenadiers – Fire D6, Melee D10, Morale D8. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2 units of hussars – Fire D8, Melee D6, Morale D6. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1 medium artillery battery – Fire D8, Melee D4, Morale D6. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1 medium howitzer battery – Fire D8, Melee D4, Morale D6. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Note: Officer Quality deduct - 2; Unit Quality - no change; Opportunity Chips - 3; Army Characterisation Deck cards (divisor 4) - 3; Sapper Task - D6.</span></li></ul><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Mission:</b> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Capture the bridge intact.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Briefing:</b> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You command an advance guard tasked with seizing a vital bridge over which the main army will cross to reach Berlin and end the war. You can advance on the bridge from any of three directions east of the river – using the east road, the north road, or the south road. You can divide your force into two columns, sending one by a circuitous route and approach from two directions, or keep your force concentrated and approach from just one. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><i>In game terms: You must choose one or two roads on which to enter the battlefield. If you choose two you must choose the mix of each force and choose which will include the commander-in-chief before the battle begins. The force with the commander in chief will arrive as soon as the game starts with the first units being allowed to make an on table march of one move at full rate before the first throw for initiative. Units entering the table need not be in column of route but must start their move in contact with the road. The second force, if there is one, arrives immediately following the second appearance of the player’s Stratagem card, as per the main force (the delay is caused by the circuitous route the second column must take).</i></span><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Intelligence suggests that the Prussians are preparing all of the bridges in the immediate area for demolition. For the operation to succeed speed is of the essence.

Goldenrod's conclusion!</b><br />We got the new server up and running! Hopefully things are running smoothly for all of you. This is a nice step in the right direction but it is not perfect yet. It took roughly two weeks to move everything over and transfer all the data. I had to do it alone so my apologies for the long delay between significant updates. At the very least I wanted to make sure you guys got Mystery Gifts and giveaways.<br /><br />On a side note the Funding reached 20% wooo! Pretty soon I'll be adding more prizes but for now I will focus on PTD2 since we had 2 weeks of no new content.<br /><br />So like the title of the blog says we will be concluding Goldenrod City this update. You will finish off Team Rocket and open of the poke mart which will have a large amount of new items to buy. It will also open up the other places even though some of them you won't be able to enter due to the destruction Team Rocket caused.<br /><br /><b>Percentage Damage Moves Change</b><br />There will be a change in how damage in moves like Fire Spin, Leech Seed, and statuses like Burn and Poison works. Instead of being based on a certain attack power they will be based on a percentage of health of the tower doing the attack. The reason it's based on the tower doing the attack instead of the target like the game is that if it's based on the target it will either do too much damage (like on bosses) or too little damage (when battling low level enemies). As an example Leech Seed will now do 1/8 of your total health as damage to the enemy instead of what it does currently. This should make these moves and statuses stronger than they are now.<br /><br /><b>Mystery Gift</b><br />Like every week we will have a Mystery Gift and a giveaway.

Writing things up on a blog is one thing, having to look things up on a roster sheet during a game is quite another. It is why I make so many markers and counters. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Recently my mind turned to off board artillery markers. Up until very recently I've been using 15mm stuff that has been placed, on- table, on pieces of red card to mark its off board status. It works well enough except for three things. Firstly, most heavy artillery is not available in 15mm (and why should it be as it will seldom, if ever, get used on-table). Secondly it has a large footprint and takes up too much room. Thirdly, even if it were available, it would take an excessive amount of time and money for its gaming value - cost benefit.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbk923iSIgTFl-a4QSTPnoZLbfV0yPghvasSoFRSuL5id0yo35OuphZlC3qJl5Xbpduh0Bri_ZM9VUrmkvm8R2yg1vSV_oSw0V6OvDJqd2bwui8UuwBDPVkjkjWxFuqUHBtAL7skZmmcys/s1600/IMG_8088.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbk923iSIgTFl-a4QSTPnoZLbfV0yPghvasSoFRSuL5id0yo35OuphZlC3qJl5Xbpduh0Bri_ZM9VUrmkvm8R2yg1vSV_oSw0V6OvDJqd2bwui8UuwBDPVkjkjWxFuqUHBtAL7skZmmcys/s640/IMG_8088.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was thinking of using pictures mounted on thickish card and so forth, then I suddenly remembered previous forays into WW2 in 10mm and 1:300 scale. A light went on.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I googled Heroics and Ros. <a href="http://www.heroicsandros.co.uk/heroics/pdf/webcat.pdf">http://www.heroicsandros.co.uk/heroics/pdf/webcat.pdf</a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Immediately thereafter ordered the guns I needed - some of which are pictured above alongside my 15mm stuff. Their range is not universal, but it has a good deal of the more common heavy stuff. It is also very cheap - £0.40 a gun and crew - and Andy Kirk is a pleasure to deal with.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I decided to paint and base them purely as markers - which took out lots of work - and I think they fit the bill perfectly. It will not be a new idea, but I think it is a good one and worth repeating. A very small corner of the field will be forever off-table.</span></div><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01734941004072111690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4048714046475146696.post-84353332541695749442013-10-12T03:39:00.000-07:002013-12-17T11:55:35.512-08:00GTA V Tutorial: Fly anywhere under the map. Hunting for secrets!This is a very simple tutorial for <b>Grand Theft Auto V</b> where you will be able to fly with the Buzzard helicopter anywhere under the map.<br />If you find anything "special" under there or if you find this tutorial useful please mention my name (Sakis25) for helping you out.<br /><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><br />1. Go to this location:<br /><span rel="lightbox"><img alt="zumv4i.jpg" class="bbc_img" src="http://oi41.tinypic.com/zumv4i.jpg" /></span><br /><br />2. Get closer to the parking door<br /><span rel="lightbox"><img alt="2jcy43s.jpg" class="bbc_img" src="http://oi42.tinypic.com/2jcy43s.jpg" /></span><br /><br />3. You can jump over the door through that part:<br /><span rel="lightbox"><img alt="11qrbt4.jpg" class="bbc_img" src="http://oi44.tinypic.com/11qrbt4.jpg" /></span><br /><br />3. Use the <b>Super Jump cheat</b> or jump on a truck. The floor is invisible but you can walk on it.<br /><span rel="lightbox"><img alt="2cp6h69.jpg" class="bbc_img" src="http://oi40.tinypic.com/2cp6h69.jpg" /></span><br /><br />4.

The process of setting it up starts with transferring all the files over to the new server. After that all the databases have to be recreated and all the data from the old database needs to be moved over to the new one. This means that there will be a day or a couple of days that the trading center will be down while I make all the transfers. This also means that I need to spend a large amount of time making sure everything is working as it should and so there won't be a big content update for ptd2 this week.<br /><br /><b>Mystery Gift</b><br />There will be a mystery gift and a giveaway as always. This week Flying won the poll and<strike> it looks like woobat and rufflet are winning so far </strike><b><span style="color: red;">Rufflet and Emolga won!</span></b> Keep the votes coming!<br /><br /><b>Working Behind the Scenes</b><br />We got some fun Cosmoid related things coming in the horizon. The artists, Joel, Evan and Kevin, are all hard at work on different projects and I hope that soon enough we will start rolling out the first one of them. I hope that I can work hard and fast to bring you these things as soon as possible.<br /><br /><b>Weekly Progress</b><br /><ul><ul></ul></ul><b>PTD2 Trading Center Update <span style="color: red;">Completed!</span></b><br /><ul><ul></ul><li><b>New Server Setup for Trading Center (100%)</b></li><ul><li><b>Transferring the php files (100%)</b></li><ul><li><b>PTD 2 Side (100%)</b> - 50 different pages</li><li><b>PTD 1 Side (100%)</b> - Over 50 different pages</li></ul><li><b>Your Trade Request Page will now be ordered by most request to least request (100%)</b> <b>- </b>This will become active after the new server is set up.</li><li><b>PTD2 - Pokemon will no longer evolve during trades if they are holding an Everstone (100%)</b> <b>- </b>This will become active after the new server is set up.</li><li><b>Accepting a trade offer will now put the Pokemon in your Pickup area instead of your profile (100%) - </b>This will become active after the new server is set up.</li><li><b>Seperated the 1-2 Cost Trainer Adoption pages into two pages (100%) - </b>This will become active after the new server is set up.</li><ul></ul><li><b>Optimizing the old files for better performance (100%)</b></li><ul><li><b>Reducing the amount of database calls on certain pages to increase performance (100%)</b></li><li><b>PTD2 - Adding Transactions to Breeding, Trading, Adopting, etc (100%) </b>- This will prevent pokemon from going missing after completing any of these task due to the server going down.</li></ul><li><b>Transferring Pokemon Center Database Data (100%)</b></li></ul></ul><b>PTD2 v1.55.2 <span style="color: red;">Released!</span></b><br /><ul><li><b>Mystery Gift (100%)</b> - Rufflet and Emolga </li><ul><li><b>Graphics (100%)</b></li><li><b>Stats (100%)</b></li><li><b>Evolutions (100%)</b></li><li><b>New Abilities (100%)</b></li><ul><li><b>Motor Drive (100%)</b></li></ul><li><b>New Attacks (100%)</b></li><ul><li><b>Defog (100%)</b></li><li><b>Volt Switch (100%)</b></li></ul><li><b>Add to Breeding Center (100%)</b></li><li><b>Add to Trading Center (100%)</b></li></ul><li><b>Added Honchkrow to the Search Pages (100%)</b></li></ul><ul><ul></ul></ul>That's what we have for you this week!
