Historical Miniatures Modeling and Gaming as an Enrichment Class
Thirteen years ago I moved to Effingham County, Georgia and began teaching at Effingham County Middle School. I approached my Principal then to ask if I could start a Historical Miniatures Club as an after school extra-curricular activity. I explained students would learn to assemble and paint World War II miniatures and then use the Flames of War rules to play games against each other on terrain tables he said to go ahead and get it started.

Contrast on Flames Of War
The release of Games Workshop’s ‘Contrast’ paint range has set the tabletop wargaming and miniature painting communities alight with the possibilities that this product offers.We here at BFHQ are just as susceptible to buying a ticket to ride on the hype train as anyone else, so we got hold of some ‘Contrast’ to test it on some of our excellent plastic infantry figures. As with everything in this hobby, our opinion is divided; with some finding the outcome of using Contrast paint on infantry as a fair trade on time versus result, some preferring a more traditional style, and others investigating ideas for speed painting your Landseers, Tommies, GIs and Ivans.
