BLAM 2012 - French Indian Wars

[Eric the Shed]

Sorry to disappoint but I took so few pictures of the French Indian Wars games...too busy running the games - and they are not very good .

If anybody has any pictures please pop them on this link...

Otherwise folks can see the sort of stuff we played on the blog - www.shedwars.blogspot.com

Cheers

They were excellent games to watch, Eric, well done! Fantastic job on the scenery, and the scenarios were very good. I curse you for getting me thinking about Muskets and Tomahawks though!  I've got enough distractions with the likes of Bolt Action...

I really did like the way the rules worked though, and your fantastically painted minis helped hugely! Always good to play a game on a lovingly rendered board full of quality models .

Are the rules for the British and French regulars part of the M&T rule book, or was that an addition for the day?

Really fantstic looking games, big congrats.

Sorry Giles, I was so wrapped up in playing the game I completely forgot to take any photos.

French AND Indian War. AND!

Hi Bert
The M&T rulesets include all the breakdowns on unit types
The following summary explains the variables
Regulars – 2 cards each with two actions, strong morale, effective firing in lines
Irregulars – 4 cards each with one action, medium morale, good shooters, move quickly
Indians – 4 cards each with one action, poor morale, good shooters, sneaky, very violent in melee
Militia – 3 cards each with one action, poor morale
Civilians – 2 cards with one action – rubbish at everything
There are subtle differences for other unit types, nationalities etc

Hi Baron J

As I said this is a plea for photos - some folks had cameras on the table...

I thoroughly enjoyed the game I played, Giles.

Great action on a superb layout.
Damn those British musket lines!

(And Bert is becoming fixated, I can vouch for that....)

BaronVonJ: Check out some of Eric's other threads for a taster until pics emerge.
Well worth it!

Yes, I follow his blog. I was the lamenting Warlord's dropping of the "and" between French & Indian.
