Thought i'd share some of the work that is going into one of the Frothers games for Salute 2011

The challenge is to produce a tabletop wargame that can capture the spirit of a fastflowing PC/console based first person shooter game.

As a whole bunch of us have been playing Battlefield Bad Company 2, Arica Harbour seemed like a good place to start.

The table, once completed, will be 8'x4', with buildings that are "destroyable" during the game.

The rules, will be a variant of my zombie rules (AKULAs RULES : SKIRMISH EDITION) - in this case "BAD AR:SE"

I won't bombard you with photos, but the table has gone from:

to:

There are more WIP Photos etc on my blog.

28mm minis, with 1/55th vehicles.

Most impressive.

Nice map you chose and brilliant work so far. I really disliked the game for all the reasons stated in the Zero Punctuation Review (Can be found at escapistmagazine.com), but that map was my favourite of them all. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

This looks really good, would love to see a battle report once it´s up and running.

Bout time you posted this up here and not just Frother's. How have you got on with the collapsable buildings mate?

I've spent quite a bit of time at Arica Harbour myself.

Your rendition is a dead ringer. Fantastic work!

I'd like to hear about those buildings as well.

Quite, the rarified atmoshphere of Frothers doesn't agree with many especially the young and eager, and you're one of the best hobbyists around...
