Changes

My original plan was something akin to Atomfall. So Atomfallish suited as a name. It wasn't going to be a big game. At its maximum size it was going to be a skirmish game with a number of opfor. This would allow running a game like Five Klicks From the Zone. I was thinking about a dozen forces and maybe about two hundred figures in total. A good chunk of which had yet to be available. Everything would fit in a storage box.

Somewhere along the lines it has morphed into SUnderdground. This is more of an RPG project. Some of what we planned for Atomfall probably won't fit for this project but most of it will. It also calls for some more forces. If it goes along the lines of the Viking Game, I am looking at three storage boxes. 

So why mention this? There is a thing called mission creep. The biggest force I initially planned was the equivalent of the Protocol which was Regional Control and was set at about twenty minis, which requires some bits that aren't available yet. I'm already up to about thirty and another ten for next week. I'm a WYSIWYG kind of guy so it's always bound to creep. Just wasn't expecting the creep to turn into a sprint. 

I have been looking at the military news a lot lately. The British government seems to be experiencing what I am calling Mission Sprint. I think it applies to most of Europe. It's like mission creep but working at pace.

It is looking like another thirty British WW2 infantry are inbound. I want some British communist forces. These will be a mix of stuff. I have a source of minis, but I don't know what is coming yet. Then there are the fascist forces. So far I have a few German figures. Nowhere near enough but it is a start.
