Title: Hijacks Are Forever - Salute 7TV game
Post by: uti long smile on 14 April 2017, 04:46:33 PM
Not had enough time to organise any new boards for Salute this year, so thought I'd dust off the good old Oil Rig.

So 'Hijacks are Forever' is just one of the three quick play games of 7TV we'll have at the show next week. Here's a butchers of the 4x4 foot set up if you fancy a game - we'll be at GD12.

Wow! That's an impressive bit of miniature(?) real estate. I suppose if the show gets all a bit too much you could curl up and have a kip inside.

All that packed into a 4x4 board!  Looks like it'll be a fun game.   :)

That's a nice big rig you've got there! 8) What is it built/based on?

Cheers all. No specific design Andy. It was built a good few years ago now.

Splendid Karl. I'm sure I've seen it before, but I don't remember if I did - it just looks superb  :-*

(BTW, I'll be along to see you for one of your new giant apes - if you have any left! :))

Cheers

Richard

Look forward to seeing you! I'll take everything I have, so you should be OK!

Last time the rig had an outing was 2010!

Is it a crate that's covered in plastic card?

Very cool.
Hope there will be some photos with figures from the game, please.

Nope - all scratch built, no cladding.

Great to see it agin. Didn't it first appear in a Dr Who game?

I'll be there shackled to Mr Bibbly's demo game. If I can sneak away I'll come and say hello ;)
