Gaming the Old fashioned way

Jest wondering in this assorted lot if anybody else wargames?

I I own a computer, and a PS2 but I still prefer the face to face contest o "pushing lead".

I game in 25MM: Pirates, WWI, WWII, and F&I.

Thank ye, Doc.

I hadn't been countin' on the price o' the pot - I think that would be buyin' a lot of figures from yer company.

If ye have a 25mm line o' pyrates (plastic or metal), please let me know, or even better, maybe post a link here fer the others - I'm sure there's more gamers / collectors out there.

MicroMark - there be a name I haven't heard fer a while - since I got outta th' model ship-buildin' arena many moons ago...

Thanks again, Doc!

Phil,

ye may not be needin the pot to pour metal. Me skipper tells me metals don't have the viscosity issues of resin. Even thin resins like we use will air bind in a small mold cavity and the pressure pot is the only way to "force" the resin into the molds to completely fill them.

Try it with the micro mark set first and see what happens.

Most o our figures right now are 54MM and much too late in history. Me Skipper is a WWII German fanatic. I keep tryin to "expand his Horizons" but after 10 years of tryin, it's getting a bit tiresome. :D
