In what is becoming something of a tradition, we celebrated both the end of our local lockdwon and the release of 9th ed 40k by revisiting the classic Battle At The Farm with our DIY 1/72 minis:

Great and fun little skirmish with a fascinating historical twist!

Congrats on exiting quarantine!

Thanks mate! We might try some of the 2nd Ed missions using the new rules too in the next couple of weeks, stay tuned

Awesome blast from the past report Skinflint. Great scenario too.

Really liked the clear and concise report structure too - I’ll take some pointers from that I think!

What were the base figures for your 1/72 conversions? I’ve looked and looked but the kit-bashing is so extensive I can’t tell.

Praise from the King of Battle Reports! I'll take that, thanks Gordy :-)

The Marines were converted from 1/72 airfix NATO ground staff with a LOT of green stuff and a bit of card, the Orks from Caesar fantasy Orc Warriors - the Rhino was a paper craft template by Patoroch, scaled down 2/3 to fit.
