Partizan… 2026.

Greetings…

At the weekend, I made my way to Newark in the company of my old (old) friend David O’ Brien.

What a fine day out we had with lots of lovely games to look at…

So here are some pictures…

A lovely American Civil War game from The Bodkins…

This table became a rendezvous point for many of us throughout the day… At one point there were five Daves in attendance… surely this must be a record 😁.

A nice participation game from Here’s the Ruckus…

Samurai action from The Shrewsbury Wargames Society…

Operation Bagration from The Derby Wargames Society…

Chesterfield Old Boys… Bemis Heights.

Glasgow Tradeston Wargames Club…White Mountain.

The Iron Brigade’s… Assault on Kawajima Castle 1564.

A lovely game full of lovely details.

The Westbury Wargamers… The Battle of Minden.

Wild Geese from The Bunker…

Lots of entertaining details on this…

Like a Stone Wall… Cape Finisterre.

War of Spanish Succession from The League of Augsburg.

One of my favourite periods.

The God of War from The League of Extraordinary Kreigspielers.

Always filled with lovely things…

Operation Nimrod ( The Iranian Embassy Siege 1980) from Veteran Voices.

A really unique portrayal of the events of the day from some very informative people .

An impressive Seven Years War game from… Friends of a Military Gentleman.

Midgard Heroic Battles 

Mighty Empires.

Boondock Sayntes…

Full of splendid details…

Well that’s all the decent pictures I managed to take.. I apologise for those lovely games I missed.

My excuse of course is that I was busy judging the Vignette Competition…

The Winner was this lovely group from The Iron Brigade 

What’s not to love about Koi Carp 😁

A terrific day in grand company meeting up with loads of good friends… Mostly called Dave 🤣🤣🤣

All the best.  Aly

So… The Answer is…

Greetings…

It is a 1:1 3D Printed Tiger Tank Muzzle Break…

I think it took a fair bit of building…

It was built in parts , then assembled, filled, sanded and then given a Red Oxide factory finish.

Given how much the replica weighs the real thing must have been difficult to handle… 

If it ( the muzzle)was damaged I can’t imagine how you would attempt a field repair…

My friend has files for the Ammunition and the Tracks… I have of course suggested that he builds the whole tank ( The biggest ‘ Part Work ‘ in history as my daughter said)… He didn’t say yes… but he didn’t say no 🤣🤣🤣.

All the best   Aly
