Argh I HATE that manufacturers bases...

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

That manufacturer from the East of England, I'm putting together 100 of his infantry for a commission, I've had to trim and bend, stick, rebend, restick every figure, at least twice.


Just... grrr!!

hE' sux? 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

And 5/8 of each pack reglued yesterday too!

When people talk about the east of England, I tend to think of Lincolnshire and East Anglia. Never had any dealings with figure manufacturers from that neck of the woods.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

There must be some...

I appreciate that you don't want to identify this manufacturer but I am getting nothing from the clue referring to the east of England. If you mean Yorkshire then that's the North. If you mean Nottinghamshire then that's the East Midlands. I suppose it's a bit like my reference to bloody southerners, actually it just means the Home Counties, not places like Wiltshire or Dorset.

You need to come a lot further south and think where Messers Gooch and Cook used to ply their county trade

Where the Saxons did roam.

[Raider4]

Only the eastern ones.

The southern, western and middle saxons settled elsewhere.

I find the best solution to the East Saxon problem is to use blu-tac on the bases and then glue the figures (and what base they have) into the blu-tac'd base.

Either a blob for each or a sausage of the blue stuff across the width of the base - which can then be pushed around and textured a bit to boot.

It's ok, enough clues now. Didn't even need a Joey, as the Aussies might say. I suppose it saves on metal but they can be a pain to get to stand upright initially. And yes, I would refer to that as the south. My mum came from there and we often used to take the mick out of her herm sandwiches.
