The burning barn mystery solved...

Greate with all the feedback and guesses regarding the Burning Barn.

As several of you have suggested the reason of the Burning barn are of course a minor misshap by Shopkeeper Sjökvst when he was seting up a new moonshine stil for the Red´s that captured him in one of our lates games...

This explosion was also the starting point for our latest game as it allerted the White forces in the region...more about that later...

Some pictorial evidence about who set the Barn on fire...


You can clearly see the perp fleeing the scene...was it an accident od did hi do it on purpose...


Don´t know if it was smart to park the escape vehicle in the barn...


Shopkeeper Sjökvst and his delivery van...


I thank you all for inovative ideeas and I decided to put the name of all 30 that have replied to my post and make a prize draw of it all, I hope you don´t mind.

So to the result of the prize draw was:

First prize to JP at the Herefordshire 1938 blog are 4 unpainted minis 28mm, interwar Swedish Landsstorm with Tricorne Hats, sponsored by my Friend Björn at Ådalen Miniatures. Pleas make a visit to his blog:)

The prize minis are UNpainted. 
The minis in the picture above are painted by Björn, 
and you can all see how you should paint them...

    2. Good idea, I will see if Alex is down for an exchange. Think the minutemen would make great Norwegian paramilitary's. Oh shameless self promotion on my part, but feel free to put an add up for 1933 "A nation Divide" Kick starter.

  2. Oh, Sjökvist that treacherous weasel.

    Good thing Röda nävar had time to sample some of the new batch before he blew up the still. It made them even more full of revolutionary spirit.

  10. All the winners, enjoy. Now, on to the burning question at hand: did Shopkeeper Sjökvst do it accidentally, or is he in the pay of White teetolers? Or Red temperance ladies?
