Brother Against Brother Game
« on: June 27, 2012, 04:52:17 AM »
Gentlemen,

I just thought I’d share some photos from a game of Brother Against Brother we played at our local club recently. Sorry there aren't more photos, we got carried away playing the game. As the title suggest, the game was played using 15mm miniatures. In usual fashion, my regular opponent won the game...








Thanks for looking,

Barry

Thanks!

Normally I would have crops in the blank fields, rather than just using the plain board.

Cheers,

Barry

Great looking board and an ace ruleset  :) :) :) :)

I was hooked after playing in a couple of games run by Herb Gundt. Historicon 2011 I played in another game where the gamemaster added some extra event cards such as 'you have disturbed a hornets nest, lose 1 casualty to be stings" or " you are angered by a lose of a friend, whole unit charges nearest enemy".

Very nice looking game.
I love games where the terrain looks good.
For me the terrain adds so much to the fun of gaming.

Good looking table  8)

I've played BaB few times in the distant past and found it to be rather nifty (unless that's the rose tinted spectacles of age  lol )

cheers

Thanks.

I think Brother Against Brother is a great game, especially after a very long week - simple and reasonably quick, for me at least. I've also have found it really useful to introduce non-historical gamers and non-gamers to the hobby.

I also own Too Fat Lardies ‘Sharp Practice’ and the ACW supplement ‘Terrible Sharp Sword’, which I am looking forward to having a game of eventually.

Cheers,

Barry
