#WarCabin
Hosted SpaceHulk in the WarCabin this evening. The Ultramarines: Duty and Honour Campaign - Mission 1. A solid UM victory, despite sustaining 80% casualties by the end.

Without question the best game GW have ever made!

New 6.5x9.5ft cloth mat arrived from @cbbmats.bsky.social.

Delighted with it l, and looking forward now to building the table layouts next as the WarCabin progresses!

And it’s done!

Two years later the artwork is up, the table is whitewashed and the WarCabin is finished. Hopefully many, many long years of great wargaming and company to be had here!

I’m really keep to run Cold War Battlegroup NORTHAG for you, when you visit the WarCabin.

Setting myself a Hobby Terrain project before wrapping up leave at the end of the month.

Renovating and finishing an old GW Realm of Battle Board for the WarCabin.

Artwork has arrived.

After more than a year, the WarCabin is finally moving closer to being fully finished.

Two new table layouts coming to the WarCabin.

6x8ft proper games of Adeptus Titanicus / Legions Imperialis; and, muddy fields for Napoleonic Wars and Warhammer Old World.

1:1 scale hobby today.

With military artwork en route, it’s time to whitewash the wargaming table as the WarCabin moves closer to being fully decorated and finished.

Hoping to host a lot of gaming and visits over the coming Winter Campaigning season and throughout next year!

Back in Wicklow after the last year attending the UK Advanced Command Staff Course in Shrivenham.

Dusting down the WarCabin and delighted to find my LC:IP 2e waiting for me.

Absolutely love these games, so looking forward to hosting plenty of wargaming in the coming months!

Also… there’s a whole heap of 28mm Napoleonics to work through.

With ACSC complete and a return to Ireland looming, I’m really looking forward to a resumption of (heavy) armoured Cold War gaming at the WarCabin in the coming weeks.

Will be upgrading my British forces from Chieftain/FV432 to CR2/Warrior standard in October, it seems!

Ordered myself some military art prints to get framed for the WarCabin at home. Should look good up on the walls and am hugely looking forward to getting back to some hobby later this summer.

Totally get that, mate! Just through Coral Sea and heading for Midway.

Those two Warlords Games starter sets applied to a 6x8ft table in the WarCabin would work rather nicely I think!

WarCabin Wargaming.

It was fantastic to host my good buddy @joewargamer.bsky.social for several days in April. Fantastic games of 15mm Cold Wargaming with Battlegroup: NORTHAG, alongside 28mm WW2 Chain of Command were had, alongside an awful lot of tea!

WarCabin Wargaming.

Fully kitted out, the WarCabin has proved worth every cent and ounce of work, playing host to fortnightly gaming evenings with my military officer wargaming group. Plenty of Memoir’44 Overlord games were played across multiple scenarios and theatres!

2025 - A recap 🧵

Very much a year of two halves.

Jan - Jun: Resettled into life at home in Wicklow and a new staff appointment at work, allowed a return to hobby and the WarCabin.

Jul - Dec: Bags packed again for another year overseas, attending Senior Staff College.

Likewise. Once home in August, the WarCabin is entering high gear!

And then there is Tukayyid…

A hectic 3 weeks in August had a ComGuard Level III completed, with supporting elements (inf / armour / arty) also nearly done.

Clan forces yet to be started, but late 2026 will hopefully see BattleTech come to the WarCabin in earnest!

#Wargaming #BattleTech #Tukayyid
Preparing for Tukayyid.

Group photo - here’s all the ComGuard BattleMechs completed in the last 3 weeks.

Supporting elements (inf / armour / arty) group photo to follow.

Won’t win any painting awards, and still need decals, but these are done for the table!

Hosting a Battlegroup NORTHAG Cold War scenario tomorrow and so was getting sorted to set up the table this evening…

… until Watson decided to fall asleep on the boxes I need. 😅🤣

Lunchtime SITREP from home.

Apparently there’s been a (semi) hostile takeover in the WarCabin.

Another superb day hosting in the WarCabin using Battlegroup: NORTHAG - underlining my consistent belief that they are some of the very best #ColdWar / Modern War Combined Arms Mechanised Warfare #wargaming rules you’ll find.

Always great fun and a challenging tactical experience.

Ready to welcome @petermolloy.bsky.social and @aquestingvole.bsky.social to the WarCabin tomorrow for a day of Cold War gaming with Battlegroup: NORTHAG.

Cheers, Simon. Two great days of wargaming and fantastic to host Joe at the WarCabin. Think he enjoyed NORTHAG alright, but you’ll have to ask him for his full review and thoughts!
April 18, 2025 at 6:38 AM
Cheers Troy, much appreciated. Absolutely superb table and yielded two great games of Chain of Command. Add two games of NORTHAG the day before and it’s been a super visit. We’ll have to get you across to visit Wicklow and the WarCabin at some stage. You know you’ve a standing invitation!
