I play PanOceania. I&#8217;ve also built a gaming table, mostly using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dreid.nl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">3D printing<\/a>. Unfortunately, I haven&#8217;t been playing since Covid, but I still really like the game system that keeps both players busy all the time.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2082\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Getting started with Infinity I: Online resources<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2085\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Getting started with Infinity II: Picking a faction<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2088\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Getting started with Infinity III: List building<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2092\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Getting started with Infinity IV: Your first games<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2187\">Infinity posts<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1147\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/xwing.jpg\" alt=\"xwing\" width=\"354\" height=\"142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/xwing.jpg 354w, https:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/xwing-300x120.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When X-Wing first came out, I was hesitant, mostly due to the price tag, but I&#8217;m a convert now. X-Wing is a great game, with nice miniatures, good rules, and interesting squad building possibilities.

Now that I own a 3D printer, and with some of the laser-cut options out there, building a Hu\u00e9 table has also become a lot easier.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2569\">28mm Vietnam miniatures<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2574\">28mm buildings for Hu\u00e9<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/?p=2603\">Painting 28mm US Marines<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"coldwar_logo\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wittwer.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/coldwar_logo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"100\"><\/p>\n<p>My dormant early 2010s historical project is the Cold War, approx. 1986, in 20mm.

These are at this moment:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dead Man&#8217;s Hand (or other Old West rules) in 28mm, I&#8217;ve got a US Cavalry unit and played a few games with the <em>What a Cowboy<\/em> rules by Too Fat Lardies.<\/li>\n<li>15mm Sc-Fi: I have a platoon of Khurasan infantry, once destined for use with Tomorrow&#8217;s War. The initial hype died down quickly, so I&#8217;m now considering Stargrunt II as set of rules.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>In the future?<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ve got enough to do, but these things seem interesting, too:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jagged Alliance 2 is still my favourite computer game. I&#8217;ve long planned doing this in 28mm with a suitable rule set (Osprey Black Ops, Spectre Operations, Skirmish Sanguin, or a modified version of Infinity) and started with some terrain.<\/li>\n<li>Cold War at sea in 1\/3000, with Shipwreck or Missiles at Sea?<\/li>\n<li>Something with airplanes? WW II or Cold War, with rules geared towards larger missions, not a dogfighting simulation.<\/li>\n<li>Other 28mm skirmish games. There&#8217;s so much nice scenery out there. I like the idea of Roman patrols fighting in Germany, for example. Mogadishu 1993 also remains an interest of mine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the end, I prefer focusing on a smaller number of games with nice scenery than doing a bit of everything that lies dormant in a closet most of the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; I&#8217;ve been playing Battletech since 1997.
