BLAM Game: Sharpe's Bastards! FFOL Peninsular skirmish
« on: October 22, 2019, 02:14:27 PM »
I had the good fortune of playing Malamute's excellent Sharpe's Bastards game at this year's BLAM event. Malamute ran the game using a Fistful of Lead. Such a fantastic game, lots of hilarity involving donkeys, poor dice rolls, and Sharpe's infamous catchphrase 'Bastard'. I was lucky enough to play Sharpe, and somehow managed to be victorious, despite the best attempts of one of the French player's (I'm specifically NOT looking at you Thundercheeks!)

Bastard! lol

Thanks for posting these Andy. It was fun to run this game and great to see how people played out the various roles and the decisions they made in the game play. (Not mentioning any names ;) )

Cracking photos Nick!

I love the shot of the chap on top of the church.

And poor Major Ducos; he never stood a chance!   lol

Sharpey's catchphrase works best with a broad Yorkshire accent!

I am afraid when I played this game the"Bastard" had a decidedly Scottish accent and the British died to the last man!
