I decided to follow the idea's over on TMP, here and here , and on the blog: Welcome to lazarus with the creation of horde bases using HO scale model railway civilian figures.

A trip to the local poundland/99p stores turned up this great little pack of "not" micromachine type cars, and as I'm busy putting stuff away ready for when Pendraken's 10mm zombie range comes out, these are going to be a great addition to modern city stuff for my board.

The Quebec government have proved themselves partypoopers for fans of the zombie genre, by cancelling the apocolypse themed part of their emergency training this year. It seems a shame, but at least you folks in Canada were at least considering it, us in the UK never get anything like that. In response their Foreign Affairs Minister… Continue reading Canada will never be a haven for zombies, lets have a flood instead!
You may know that my preferred miniature scale is 15mm, so I had to highlight this new KS from Critical Mass Games for their cool looking 15mm ZAS mercs.
