Great Battles Basic Impetus 2.0 and Super Heroes

But not in the same game.  And while I was busy running the multiplayer version of Basic Impetus, I failed to take photos of the other game.  Luckily our Secretary was able to remedy that failing with his trusty camera.






But of course you want to see the Basic Impetus game...


More photos and commentary on this game can be found on my blog in this post.  Enjoy.

Record Games Day

 Filled to capacity and excellent range of great looking historical miniatures games on the go.

Someone's Drift, maybe even Rorke's 

ACW
Dastardly Rebels.

Somewhere on the subcontinent perhaps?

Northern Italy

The second part of the Snappy Nappy game
set in Northern Italy,
portraying the Marengo campaign.

6mm Ancients using Basic Impetus 2.0
Polybian Romans versus Alexander's Macedonians.

They've been waiting to see the whites of their eyes.
I hope they are wearing sunglasses!

The ACW still continues

What are we fighting for?
The TimTams of course!

Marengo

The Romans and Macedonians come to grips.

Those Lancastrains are out and about again

 

Lancastrian yetis snacking on some Carthaginian elephants.
Basic Impetus 2.0

Black Powder,
may contain some Lancastrians, 
but definitely no yetis.

Named Frenchman guarding the livestock
possibly from marauding Lancastrians.

Mortem et Glorium

Mortem et Glorium
Defending the corner against an army advancing behind purple rulers.
Must be Lancastrians!

In keeping with the spirit of the times, all games declared winners before they started to avoid any messiness.  This resulted in two winners per game.  It only gets worse from here on, I blame the Lancastrians.

Lancastrians as they really are

 

Basic Impetus 2.0
Early Achaemenid Persians versus Iberian and Lusitanians.
That's Lusitanians NOT Lancastrians.

Basic Impetus 2.0
Sassanids versus extremely historically accurate Lancastrians

There could be some Lancastrians in this Black Powder game

Probably no Lancastrians in this game,
but it is hard to tell. 

Definitely no Lancastrians in this Snappy Nappy game.
