I'd suggest a black undercoat for all FoW models - at this sclae [sic] the shading helps a lot. As for GW piants and Germans I'd recommend (and I can't believe I'm saying this!) that you don;t [sic] use GW paints for the uniforms (although our Desert Yellow makes a great Dunkelgelb and Terracotta a good substitute for the brick red camo pattern colour. The GW line is best served on allied armies. For the Germans I'd suggest you use the superb Vallejo colours ...Personal Confession: I use both Vallejo and the GW paints. Both are very good.

I can confirm that Games Workshop and Andy Chambers have decided to part company. For reasons I'm sure you can appreciate, we never discuss employee's personal details or situations, so I can't provide any more information than this. I'm going to lock this thread now, as it really is off-topic for this forum. Best regards, Jervis Johnson Head FanaticMy first reaction is that it's an April Fools' joke. We'll see.

Miniature Wargaming is part of the "adventure games" hobby, which includes r ole p laying and board games. Wargamers recreate battles on the tabletop with toy soldiers, like a more complicated game of chess. Models range in height from 6mm to 28mm tall, with 15mm and 25mm being the most popular. There also is a growing interest in toy soldiers and military models, such as the 1/32 and 1/35 scale plastic soldiers from Conte, and Marx.
The most popular miniature wargames are fantasy and science fiction based, such as Warhammer, Warhammer 40K, Warmachine and The Lord of the Rings. World War II games such as Flames of War and Axis and Allies are new favorites. Other favorite historical periods include Napoleonics, the American Civil War, and ancients, such as Romans or Greeks. Other gamers enjoy miniature naval wargames, recreating battles like Trafalgar, Jutland and the Coral Sea.
Hobbyists research historical periods and paint their tiny soldiers in accurate uniforms. Others develop "historically realistic" rules sets or build scale battlefield terrain using model railroad techniques.

Some of the bigger hobby companies are Games Workshop, which produces Warhammer, Wargames Foundry and Old Glory Miniatures. Wizards of the Coast produces several lines of pre-painted miniatures games, such as the Star Wars and Dungeons and Dragons miniatures games, and a historical game with pre-painted miniatures: The new Axis and Allies game. Wizkids produces a fantasy collectable miniatures game, such as the Mage Knight and Heroclick fantasy games, the science fiction games MechWarrior and Rocketmen, as well as the quasi-historical Pirates of the Spanish Main.
