I was at The Other Partizan on Sunday. James had invited me to help out with the huge Hastings refight using Midgard rules and Pete's Paper Boys soldiers. Apparently I was to provide my rules expertise. "In the kingdom of the blind..." and all that I guess.
Between pointing and saying things like "twelve dice, looking for fives and sixes, re-rolling ones" and "you should probably charge them in the face" I had time to wander round and take some pictures.
Lots of lovely games on display as always.
Tricorn stuff - I do love a Tricorn
I enjoyed this cannonball whizzing through the sky
This was part of a Sharp Practice game - no idea why I *only* took this picture
WW2 - Chain of Command I think.
This was the Boondock Sayntes
("Boon-dock Sayntes, Boon-dock Saynyes, Boo-boo-boon-dock Sayntes")
Big Midgard Indian game.
I do love their stuff, always visually appealing and a bit mad.
Good to see mythic elements to the game!
Tercios, pike, probably Tricornes too
Maybe not, these look floppy to me.
Little Bighorn - this was using the forthcoming Bugles in the West rules. I have half a plan to do this in 10mm next year...
Think this is some more of the floppy hatted period.
Steve Jones' excellent Eutaw Springs
(Eu-taw Springs, Eu-eu-eu-taw prings)
Late AWI (tricornes, huzzah) so apparently both sides were pretty competent by this stage.
Sicily WW2 20mm using Rapid Fire.
Loved the look of this.
I took very few pictures of th game I was helping with and the ones I did take do not do it justice. But here they are
Great day out catching up with folks looking at games and adding a few things to the plastic pile.
