GASLIGHT Game at Historicon

[fatbill]

I am running a Bring Your own figures Pickup GASLIGHT game at Historicon. People without miniatures will be supplied with miniatures. It will be at 2 PM on Thursday.  

The Rules for the Pickup game.

1. We use the regular GASLIGHT rule system with the following additions from Battles by GASLIGHT……
Close assaulting vehicles
Vehicle overrun attacks
Ramming

If it is not mentioned in these rules it is not allowed. Please bring your copy of the rules and read them over sometime before the battle.

2. Each player will be allowed one Hero, one armored landship, and one unit of infantry.

The Hero may have any predetermined Character Attributes (please not all 18s) and carries an Anti-personnel Fantastic weapon (you choose the stats).

Example: John the Sniper
Shoot of 18 (he is suppose to be a good shot)
Scuffle of 11 (he’s a sniper not a hand-to-hand guy)
Save of 15
Muzzle-loading sniper rifle
Range 60, 1 shot, Reload yes, SRM -6

The armored landship will have …
A Save of 12
A Speed of 12
A Start of 14
A Sustain of 17
A Spin of 45 degrees
A crew of two or four
Armed with a Gatling/Nordenfelt, or a Breechloading Small Rifled Cannon, or equipped with a Ram. If the turret on the model turns then so does the one on the landship.

The Infantry Squad will consist of one Leader (Shoot of 11, Scuffle of 11, and Save of 11). The 9 extras in the squad will have a Shoot of 9 and a Scuffle of 8 (no Save of course). The squad of infantry shall be armed with muzzle loading rifles with the leader also carrying two one-shot anti-vehicle thrown weapons with an SRM of –2 (sticks of dynamite or fire-bombs).
