The Hun The Frog & The Lion – Part 3: The Boats

The blog post series continues with installment #3 about this scenario I ran at Recon and will be running again at Hurricon in Orlando with the naval portion of this battle. The scenario dictates the use of multiple boats, a low draft civilian steamer converted to a gunboat, (2) Arab type dhows or xebecs, and numerous landing craft. Check out my blog for more pictures and details.

This is an R Class steamer made and sold by Last Stand Dan.

The front dhow was built by Last Stand Dan and the rear xebec made by Richard Houston. Richard's boats sometime come up for sale at TVAG. thevirtualarmchairgeneral.com



Disembarking troops headed to the hell hole of Mogadir located in the arm pit of the world....

The next installment #4 will be:
Meet The Hun The Frog & The Lion.

I hope you enjoy the blog post.
Cheers,
JB

Thanks for the positive comments guys! The game was big fun. I'm working on the AAR. I love playing and running The Sword And The Flame games.

Wow, you even painted a red stripe around the nose of the shell !

And I'll BET you can tell me what that red stripe means for colonial German gunners !

REALLY need to return to our Cons!   Now that I have a 3 year old grandaughter who loves to play zombie and kaiju games, and she lives in Orlando, the time might be nigh!

Lets pray Hurricon is on a NON Canes home game weekend!  (I'll check).   If I go, I will run "The Sword and the Spongebob: Dorke's Drift" game for the chil'ren.
