Has.Been, they look just as good in colour. Makes me want to stop by with a load for Woo's Laundry and then mosey on down to the local watering hole. Has "splendid" been used too often?

Harry, magnificent as usual. Must say I'm intrigued by the numbered cards along the edge - is that from the scenario? something your fevered brain has cooked up? Do tell.

It's for the scenario, there can be up to 10 moves till night falls, then the baddies can sneak away up a secret trail.

Yes Flatpack, JC was far too worried about animal welfare (his cattle) than Dice Master, who played to his strengths (is the enemy still breathing? If yes...shoot & shoot again.) High spots were when the cattle did stampede (random artillery dice for direction & speed) which led to:-
several chasing the widow Tomkins into the Sheriff's office (Sheriff had diplomatically already 'Gone fishing');
trampling several of JC's cattlemen (That's gratitude for you!) and
staff of the Chinese laundry trying to close the yard gates in the face of angry cows.

A cattle stampede, now that's summat I never thought of! Not that I'd consider going through the agg of painting up a herd of 'em.....



Incidentally has.been, just out of interest, where did you glean that herd of Longhorns?

Honest the herd wern't rustled.
In fact the herd just sort of grew while in the lead mountain. It too is up for sale, as  more have joined the lead mountain.
That was the fault of Grubby Tanks, who has the old Britannia range, I wanted Buffalo, he hadn't got them with him, but showed me the cattle. Two seconds later it was a case of...'Ooooh Shinnnney!!!!!'

Meet Dead Man's Gulch's Doctor. Doc Hostetler is the Gulcher's physician, bullet wounds a speciality, as he's had a lot of practice! The Doc's only failing is his love of rotgut whisky which can oft effect his probings. Here he is out and about as Marshal Snake Eyed Pete and his Deputy call on Sheriff Dick...

The scratchbuilt gritty building looks much more "Wild West" than the clean, unrealistic-looking and expensive one IMHO!  ;)

BTW: that's a really nice looking town, Mister, CONGRATULATIONS!  :-*
