Colonial New Zealand Wars demo for National Day of Commemoration

[Arteis]

I am putting on a colonial New Zealand Wars demonstration game as a public event to help mark our National Day of Commemoration on Saturday 28 October.

Today I started gathering together the resources I’ll need for a game set in 1845/46, using Dan Mersey’s 'The Men Who Would Be Kings' colonial wargaming rules.

I'v posted about the forces, the terrain and the rules I plan to use here on my blog: https://arteis.wordpress.com/2017/10/23/gathering-the-forces-for-my-colonial-new-zealand-wars-game/

Beautifully painted figures! Good luck to your demo game!

The display game took place today.  I've just posted a report and pictures of the event on my blog:

Our daily paper also ran an article about the event, which you can read here:

Well done - definitely was a success in more ways than one.

Super looking set up.
The day looked to be a success.
Love your figures and terrain.

I think the pictures were decent and sufficient to show the beauty of your minis and terrain setup.
Also, Mr. Hermans, in your daily newspaper said a few right things, every historical wargamer should agree.
Cheers!
