Dr Who and the Mysterious Case of the Silver Knights

 


We wanted to show once again the versatility of the Fistful of Lead rules by crossing the new Horse & Musket 2nd edition rules with Galactic Heroes. What better way to cross the genres than with a certain time and dimension traveling Doctor?

The villagers of Little Tugwaddle have been disappearing since the mysterious Silver Knights started appearing. As they vanished, more of the seemingly invulnerable knights arrived. With the country embroiled in a Civil War the King's dragoons are sent to investigate. They are startled to find a stranger claiming to come from the future.















At first, it looked like the Cybermen would crush all before them, but then the Doctor started using his Sonic Screwdriver to convert the lead shot of the locals to gold, which is deadly to the robots.

The tide turned swiftly after. Fun game. You can watch it HERE

Another Weekend of Gaming- J3!

 I had the great pleasure of attending J3 (Jay's July Jamboree) this weekend. Similar to my own Wiley Wargames Weekend, it's private affair hosted by Jay Arnold of the Veteran Wargamer podcast. I got to attend with son and my best friend. Gaming and drinking? I'm in!

The Dungeon set up for Fistful of Fantasy.
Taking a break with some Gaslands.

The Elves out of their element.
Chaos afoot!
Barbarians enter the fray.
Orc!






Moments before the Barbarians are wiped out by a spell from the Chaos sorceror.

The Dwarf standard falls!

We had a n 8 player game in a game of "grab treasure and smash" type scenario. Great, stupid fun.


Serene country setting.
creepy rocker outside our door that I'm sure I saw move.
A new friend to greet us.
Other games in full swing.

A dark and stormy night perfect for a game of Escaton. Rival cultists fighting it out at the ned of the world.

Proper accommodations. 

All in all a great weekend of fun and new friends.
