Gaddis Gaming WWI German Soldiers

Gaddis Gaming included some of their WWI German soldiers in my order, and I’ve gotten them up to battle ready status (good enough for the likes of me anyhow). I’m hoping to get a little more detail picked out on them – maybe some mustaches – but more looking to push them around the table against those Harlem Hellfighters.

I also got the Gaddis Gaming Death Ray Tank assembled and roughly painted, alongside a Firelock HMG team.

Considering the weird elements – Death Ray and Tesla Tanks – I’m leaning into using Nuts! Weird War 2 as a ruleset for gaming them on the table. It’s solo friendly, and the forces should be easily worked up from the rules.

All said, I’m hoping to have some kind of battle report/result to share in the near future.

Be well, and good gaming!

Harlem Hellfighters in 28mm

As mentioned in the Tesla Tank post, I’d gotten some 28mm Harlem Hellfighters from Gaddis Gaming. I got some work in on these white metal models this week, and have them at about battle standard (which for me is “slop and go”). There’s definitely room for more drybrushing and detailing, but good enough for the likes of me.

I had an HMG on-hand (from Firelock Games) and got that painted up to match. With two 5-man units, a leader, and an HMG, I think it’s quite the little force … very combat patrol-ish.

I didn’t spend much time cleaning the models – mainly straightening a few barrels, which is par for the course with any modern minis. Overall, they were a pretty clean bunch, and it’s been a while since I had new metal minis. I used some green army painter primer to quickly get them into a base color. Some inks, drybrush, and base treatments and good to go.

I think the models have some nice character and poses, and looking forward to getting them onto my table for some battles.

Be well, and good gaming!
