England Prevails...: Painting: British AFV's

Painting: British AFV's

First off apologies for the lack of updates of late, no plan survives contact with the enemy, especially when that enemy is real life, however I hope to get back on track with 2ECW soon. In the meantime I thought that this post for painting British armour, off the excellent Cold War Hot Hot Hot blog, worth passing on if you missed it.

Back in the 1990's James Clay wrote a couple of articles for the SFSFW journal Ragnarok about a contemporary fictional civil war in England. With glasnost in full swing the idea of using existing modern wargames armies on England's green and pleasant shores was hugely attractive, especially with the addition of foreign volunteers joining the battle...

With the popularity of a Very British Civil War set in the thirties, my thoughts have turned back to James' idea and the numbers of green painted modern armour and troops I still had which I had no desire to repaint and send to Iraq or Afghanistan.

So this blog aims to resurrect James' idea, develop the background and give me an excuse to use my 20mm moderns in a temperate war zone.

Finally yes, I did point out to him there was a second (and third) English Civil War in the 17th century but he didn't care so neither will we!
