Title: A Game of Setting The East Ablaze
Post by: cstoesen on October 23, 2012, 09:02:06 PM
I managed to get in a small game of Setting The East Ablaze last week while on business in Minnesota.  Alan was a gracious host and it was a fun game.

Take a look at my blog for the full story - or at least my version of it.

Chris is too kind.  For those of you that have not met him, he is a true Southern gentelman and was kind enough to sit through my first fumbling attempt at running a game. And I thank him for that.

Rules worked well btw, despite my repeated attempts to screw them up  lol

I must admit that Alan has nearly convinced me to try this period out.  It seems a colorful and interesting period of history that I know next to nothing about.  Other than an excerpt of a book about the Mad Baron.

Thought you might.  I get ooh's and aah's from everyone when I trot that piece of terrain out

A fine looking game.
I wish I had time to paint some figures for this period.
Just not enough time to paint everything I would like.
