Hi everyone! We finally played our first post-Apocalyptic game using Fistful of Lead rules. I had six players, so we decided to keep it simpler and limited everyone to four figures. Each team had a Leader, Specialist, and two regular troopers. Everyone had a good time and it took about 3 1/2 hours to fight to a conclusion. We were a little rusty on the rules, not having played them in a couple of months (and only the Western version).

Check out my blog for lots more photos and an account of the action. Here's the link (which I forgot in my original post!):

My girlfriend Jenny, playing the Blood Brotherhood, was the winner with 7 Renown points. The Nightstalkers and Bucknuts also did well, garnering 6 points each. My post-Apoc world is in the vein of Terminator, so three bots made it onto the field once the guns had been firing for awhile furiously. Two Scout Bots and a Sentry Bot showed up, the latter gunning down one of the five characters that were killed.

Would love to hear comments or suggestions.

Bucknuts. I love it.

Good looking game with lots of teams on the table. I love the addition of the bots coming in as well. Hope you post more games over here as I regularly forget to go to the Pulp forum. Only so many minutes of break time in a work day to browse  lol

Happens to the best of us.  Great post, and I fully intend to steal a lot of ideas from it for my own table.

Thanks, guys! I definitely intend to keep running games. I have painted up six teams and am underway on terrain, so I want some play time payoff for the paint time I invested. Of course, that depends on the players hopefully enjoying themselves!

Feel free to take any ideas (and share some, as well)...
