The Other Partizan 2026 pictures

 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!




Some Sudan camel riders



Tercios, pike, probably Tricornes too



Maybe not, these look floppy to me.



Warhawk in flight


Little Bighorn - this was using the forthcoming Bugles in the West rules. I have half a plan to do this in 10mm next year...







Russinas?


More WW2







Tricornes! Hurrah!




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.








A filthy Focker


Russians in WW2



Errr, Prussians?



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.
