What a Cowboy! campaign

 

So, after our recent successful game of What a Cowboy I am inspired to propose a campaign. To that end I have a few construction projects to add some extra scenery to the existing pool, a mine, a tent city and some additional scatter terrain among other items. Also I will need to work on some mounted figures, just in case.

So I will send out an invite soon to see who is interested and try to get a game day around the end of June.

Another Midgard Heroic Battles game played

 

We played another game of Midgard on May 24th, Empire vs Orcs. It was the first time for the Empire to show up on the table and while they had some good successes ultimately the Orcs looked to prevail. (game cut short for dinner)

We may yet get another game in before the end of May.

Recent game day Midgard Heroic Battles

 

Game two Orcs defending on the left, Dwarf attackers right.

Game one Dwarf defenders left, Orcs attacking on the right.

Two games of the same scenario, same results, the attacker won. In game one the Dwarfs were the defenders, game two the Orcs defended. There were two sessions, morning/afternoon, five players, one ref. There was no duplication of players so each group came up with their own battle plans.

The rules seemed to go over well with the players, as the ref I certainly liked them. I look forward to the next game of Midgard.

Full AARs can be found on the main site HERE.

Yet another Midgard game (planned for May 2nd)

 

So, this weeks scenario comes from the Midgard Chronicles book, scenario 7, Too eager! Last couple of games saw the defenders with no incentive to move. this time around, the defenders will be split with one contingent well separated from the other contingents, but holding on to the main objective. It will behoove the defenders to advance in support of this isolated group to both save them from destruction and to hold the objective.

Once again it will be Orc vs Dwarf  and this time around we will randomly determine who is the attacker and who is the defender. We may well play this game twice on Saturday with two different groups, all depends on who all can attend and when (morning or afternoon)

Upcoming game weekend Midgard Heroic Battles

 

Battle in the badlands! This weekend hope to run a couple of games of Midgard Heroic Battles with some of the guys. I plan to run the same battle for two different groups of players on Saturday and Sunday.

Dwarf defenders

The battle will see the Dwarves defending against a horde of Orcs. Both army lists are from the rulebook, the scenario is my own. (really just the first scenario with more scenery) The picture shows the troops set up for some solo gaming that I am playing this week in preparation for the weekend's event.

Orcs deployed for the attack

Recent game day

 

So we got our two games in this past Saturday. There were three players for Devilry and four for What a Cowboy! (not including me as GM) A good time had by most, if not all even though defeating the witches seem nigh impossible. 

What a Cowboy was fun and moved along quite well despite a gaff in rules understanding.

Up next will be a game  of Midgard Heroic Battles at the Sgts Mess this Saturday!

April 11th proposed game day

 

One of the proposed games

So, I have two games set up for Saturday, What a Cowboy! and Devilry Afoot and I will set up a Pulp Alley game too.

Other possible games

 

Maybe Adeptus Titanicus giant robot gladiatorial matches as well or instead of Midgard. I just painted up 4 traitor titans, it might be nice to get them on the table.

Naturally, Pulp Alley is also high up on the list.

I have some witches and some Puritans, oh and a witch hunter general!

HERE is a link to a Youtube intro Devilry Afoot game. Note, not a video by me but an excellent video by Skirmish Wargames.

This is already set up and ready to go.
