Title: Battle report: Escape from Neu Fredericksburg
Post by: Skrapwelder on October 05, 2008, 06:17:27 PM

Friday we managed to get together for a game I put together somewhat off the cuff. Based on the retreat from Saigon. Prussians in a last defense of their Consulate compound while trying to get all the civilians lifted off to safety while Martian forces push into the town.

Yes most of the miniature used for civilians are Westwind, but it is the first time so well painted and lovely.
Scrapwelder has done a very good job!
He also say that painting was done during September see:

However I do not know the gentlemen in black with guns, are they westwind again???

Another excellent AAR with great terrain and figures. I love the luftboots and the not-Pinkertons in top hats.

Great game. Had me on the edge of my seat. A fellow war studies student was sitting next to me and read the battle report, you've just converted him to wargaming!
