Last weekend my son and I attended the HOTLEAD! convention in Stratford, Ontario. We put on a hybrid game of
Lock, stock and 2 smoking Daleks and "All Hell breaks loose" from the
Battle for Canary Wharf. As we did not have the figures or terrain to play
Lock, stock and 2 smoking Daleks as is, we took the fight back inside and replaced the Geezers and Police with and second Cyberman and Torchwood team.
Lock, stock and 2 smoking Daleks The Game Begins10 and the TARDIS The Cybermen manage to capture the Doctor for a brief time but he is soon liberated by Yvonne and Torchwood Team 1. While this is going on Dalek Cann and Torchwood team 2 head off to secure the Dalek Ark. The Preachers begin stalking Cybermen as they move off towards the Cyber conversation factory.
10 captured by the Cybermen and freed by Torchwood Micky, Rose and the Dalek Ark Torchwood engages the Daleks Preachers move on Cyber Conversion Chamber Yvonne and the Doctor start collecting data from the phase shift analysers. The Cybermen continue to search rooms in an effort to capture candidates for upgrading. Mickey, Rose and Torchwood team 2 become locked in a death struggle with the Dalek Cann. Pete Tyler drops in (via event card), only to be exterminated by Dalek Cann for his trouble. Torchwood team 2 is wiped out and Mickey is captured. The Ark was primed!
Torchwood collect 10 and gather data Cybermen search for more victims Pete pays the price Moments later Torchwood reinforcements destroy Cann and liberate Mickey.The Doctor, Yvonne and Torchwood rush off to prevent Dalek Sec and Thay from reaching the Ark. The Preachers are not idle during this period, They used their electromagnetic bombs to good effect, destroying the second Cyberman team and freeing one of their captives. They reach the Cyber conversion site free Jackie tyler and shut the site down.
More daleks arrive! Preachers move in As Dalek Sec had entered play via his event card he soon departed the scene, (unable to make his roll to remain in play) before leaving he inflicted 2 wounds on the Doctor. Dalek Thay moves in to secure the Ark only to meet up with more Torchwood reinforcements. Mickey and Rose move out of the Ark room, joining the remaining Preachers who had headed off towards the centre of the table in a running fight with the remaining Cybermen.

Caught between 2 Torchwood teams and the Doctor, Dalek Thay goes down under the sheer volume of fire and some very untimely die rolls.
By this point we had played 12 turns and decided the Preachers and Torchwood had completed their main objectives. The only problem remaining was that the Dalek Ark was soon to open!
We had a very nice group players join us for the game, ranging in age from about 10 yeas to those who were young at heart! A good time was had by all
