Flames of War Hobby League - Week 3

As we wrap up week three of the hobby league I was thinking about how awesome it is to get to see all the photos come in and the progress everyone is making! We'll soon have enough to play our first 50 point games, though some of us already have done just that!

Let's have a look at week three's progress:

Brent's British Churchill Tanks (Italy)

Brent's been carrying on with his Churchills and infantry this week:

Ian's British Rifle Company

Ian's added some parachute 6pdrs and mortars to his painting queue:


Mike's US Rangers

I've managed to finish some extra bases so I can field my rangers as a normal rifle company or an assault boat company:

My Ranger configuration for the League

The full number of stands to convert the Rangers into a rifle or assault boat company

Some extra rifle teams, flame-throwers, and the re-based FFI platoon

A few extra teams to bring the FFI up to full strength

Patrick's German Assault Guns

Pat's carrying on with his plastic/metal hybrid StuG force:





Phil's German Panzers

Phil's making up for lost time as he puts some basecoats down on his panzers:







Rob's British Rifle Company

Rob's rifle company receives support in the form of Churchills and an old Turkish cannon:


Excellent work this week, everyone! We're edging closer to our 50 point goal so we'll have to plan a get together very soon. Stay tuned!

Hobby League: Battles!

It's been a while since we had an update, but things have kept charging forward! We had no fewer than three FoW games played in the last couple of weeks using our growing Hobby League armies! Brent's British took on some T-34s and came out victorious. Ian and Rob played a game with their league forces, and Pat and I got a pair of games as well! Here's some of the photos we got sent in. If you have played some games, be sure to get some pictures for us to have a look at! Rob v. Ian Pat v. Mike (Game 1, US Victory) Pat v. Mike (Game 2, German Victory)

Flames of War Hobby League - Week 7

Image
Welcome to week 7 of the EI Hobby League! This has been a light week for progress photos, so we'll keep it short. But we're going to soon be ready for a club day out, so be prepared! Mike's US Rangers All I was able to get done this week was another cavalry patrol. I might end up making a formation out of these before too long! Patrick's German Assault Guns Patrick's made some progress on his Panzer IVs this week: Phil's German Panzers Rather than work on Hobby League stuff, Phil has crafted himself a post-apocolyptic self-defence weapon instead, though he claims its to help him spray an entire formation in one go! He's also done a little more work on his Tiger. Rob's British Rifle Company Rob's finished his aircraft and has made a little more progress through his infantry, and an "odd" platoon of some late 75mm Shermans. That's if for this week! Tune in next time for some more Hobb...

Flames of War Hobby League - Week 5

As the hobby league rolls into week 5, many of us have completed the first batch of 50 points, so that's a huge milestone! The next one is an easy 75 points total, so only 25 more points, followed by another 25 after that! With so many of us finishing up our 50 points, we should start thinking about running a small event to show off our progress. I'll post up a topic in the facebook group to start that ball rolling. In the meantime, here's our weekly progress: Brent's British Churchill Tanks (Italy) Brent's been overseas on business, so he doesn't have a current update. However, he did get a bunch done in anticipation of his absence so he'll catch up pretty quickly. Ian's British Rifle Company Ian's been hard at work expanding his forces. Just have a look! Mike's US Rangers It's been a slow week on my end with just a couple of M3 75mm GMC half-tracks for my Rangers. Patrick's German Assault Guns Pa...
