Thanks so much for sharing. Beautiful. My long time wargaming buddy is also dealing with chemo therapy, please stay strong.

[@KenHanning57]

Thanks Adam. I’ve now had better news. The radiotherapy and chemo have delivered a good result and I’m now being placed on a four monthly scan and review programme. All the best to you and your pal. Thank you again for your good wishes.

I have bought the three RELOADED booklets, yesterday at Partizan, the RF guys were there selling their latest reloaded booklet …. Crete. It looks lovely. I picked up some Bren carriers and British inf (1/72) to get started.

[@user-be8lq5xq5n]

Have very much enjoyed your excellent videos, all the more appreciated as there is sadly so little Rapid Fire! or 20mm WW2 content to be found. I wish you all the best with your health and look forward to more gaming from your amazing war room. Cheers!

[@KenHanning57]

Thank you Mack very kind of you. Should get some more filming done by the weekend. Health news is much improved I’m now on four monthly scans. Thank goodness for our NHS. Cheers.

[@KenHanning57]

thank you very much!

[@brainpolice5016]

Wow it all looks so wonderful. So much detail and instantly recognizable. One suggestion on the pronunciation of Oosterbeek, you would be closer if you say it starting with the "o" sound from "boat" - i.e., "Oaster - bake"

[@KenHanning57]

Thank you and many thanks for the Dutch pronoun citation help, much appreciated!

[@McQuag]

That looks beautiful.

@@KenHanning57 long time since I played Rapid fire the old market garden book was inspiring still dig out my rf2 rules for inspiration but mostly play Chain of command ATM.

@@McQuag RFR is a great simple modernisation of the old books. I’ve tried CoC but not for me I’m afraid, not a grand enough scale!

I can't seem to upload photos here, I have a cuple of the construction.

Hi hope you are getting better. Just texting too see it you are going to do any more KZbin videos for rapid fire rules. They are of a great help😊 thanks very much for getting me back into the rules. For one thing I am not good at reading so you're videos are of a great up

excellent table,please post a battle report video

[@KenHanning57]

Cheers John. I’m planning to do just that!

[@martinbuxton]

Fabulous table and very big. A question about the dimensions how do you manage to reach the middle of the table as it's a 3 foot reach. I planning a 10 foot by 5 foot table but would like to have it a little wider and wondered if you had any tips or maybe it's just because I a little short.

[@KenHanning57]

Thanks Martin. It’s certainly a stretch but it’s ok. I have a couple of friends who also use six foot wide tables and do so happily. But it depends upon your reach and what you are comfortable with. It’s all great fun!

[@martinbuxton]

@@KenHanning57 thanks I guess the height of the table would have an impact as well

[@bobyouel7674]

Great

[@keithdragon5286]

WOW Ken, considering you've been through the wars your looking good. Hope you're feeling it also. Been missing your briefings and pray you'll be back to full strength soon. I'm just about to get a new shed so would be interested in you doing an "off the table" tour of your man cave as I need some inspiration for storing buildings and tiles. Still not going to be anything like like your size room though. Keep strong 🙏
