This is NOT a Station 42 War battle report.  We are trying to wrap up that campaign and hopefully start a competitive campaign with a bunch of our gamer friends soon.  We have also developed several ongoing conflicts for our Solar Empires setting that we will be using for one off games in a kind of system wide narrative campaign.  This is a battle between communist insurgents and my friends army of Jovian Imperial Legionaries.  The battle is part of an insurgency going on in the Trojan camp of the Jupiter Trojan asteroids in my setting. 
Here is the link to the report:  http://ironworkersminiatures.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-battle-of-macintyre-station-trojan.html (http://ironworkersminiatures.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-battle-of-macintyre-station-trojan.html)

and a couple more pics!

Very nice.  I like the expansion to a wider world and getting your friends involved. 

You use "No Limits" as a ruleset? or did I guess wrong?

Also, nice mashup of figures for the factions.

Every time I look at your buildings, I'm gratified to see sooo much done with so little.  lol

Really fun table!

I think I've asked if you get up to KC for any cons; I'm going to Borderwars this year for the first time. Well, our store is going, but usually find time away from the tables to go play on the other tables.  ;)

May 2-4 in Overland Park.

Done by Heartland of America branch of Historical Miniatures Gaming Society, whom I used to take as being a bit stiff, but many have turned out to be rather nice fellows.  :D

I HAD to find something in KC for the Spring! I'm bereft without a Spring Recruits!  :'(

Is that what happened this year?  I went to their website and only saw the information for Fall 2014 and I assumed they had it earlier in March which would have been odd.

Search me. I know with the 'change in management', they were talking of once a year, but thought they'd committed to two more in a row. Dopey me, I may have missed it in the passage of time.

Time is an illusion;tea time doubly so. I get so confused.
