What I often forget about Portees is, that I can always send the trucks to the rear. So 6pdrs are a really variable weapon. The varnish thing is hard to decide if you only see it on pictures. But if it is just the sand you want to dull then do not hestate to do so - it looks good. Thanks a lot for your feedback on our tables. Our club is very proud of them an it is really fun to play with them. A gaming room on the other hand is a little bit of luxury. Hi Stu, agreed, 4” should be enough for at least half of the portees.

I really just want to flatten that shine a bit. For example in the battery shot look at the very shiny sand on the closest gun, compared to the gun immediately to the left. That's the old varnish I was using compared to the newer brand I'm using now. Your new tables look great btw. I wish I had a room to dedicate to gaming, since my garage is rather cold in winter!

But now, Portees are quite good although it is rather impossible to hide all of an 4 Portee Platoon with a movement of 4'' behind nearby terrain. Sneaky Weasel is an excellent name for the Stormtroopermove! Thanks for that funny expression, I will use that from now on. Do you really want to make the nice colors of your models dull? They look really good? Or do you just want to change the base color? It is really a good point to emphasize that these guns were crap in the first edition.
