Moonshine Still

Thanks Guys,

The Black Scorpion armed vicar was the only figure I had to hand but I think he fits quite well...the evils of booze and all that  :wink:

I'll take some photos of the game at Warfare so you can see the whole sst up. I suppose I should post them over on the Cthulhu board as there is a Arkham connection.

Incidentally, if you're going to Warfare (it's well worth it) then please come and  see the game in action and take part. It's the Wessex Wargamers Winchester 'Hillbilly Hell' participation game (we're usually located in the same hall as the competition games).

See you there!

Jim

 I'll be seeing you on sunday then!
Its very impressive, I can't wait to see the whole game

[Chairface]

What a great piece of scenery. If I had the skill I would copy you.

[twrchtrwyth]

That is some fantastic work you've done. It looks great.

Managed to catch this game on Saturday, looked very good!

Grabbed a quick photo with my phone camera

Thanks guys,

The board was actually built for our 2004 game Terror in Tunguska but was dusted off and re-used this year. It's the combined work of the terrain gurus at our club, Al, Ian and Dickie.

Look out for more pictures of the game in Wargames Illustrated.

Unfortunately, we didn't win the trophy this year but we did get the Bronze Award which was nice. Thanks to everyone who dropped in for a game or who just watched the procedings. It's a great show so everyone went away happy  :mrgreen:

Next year's game is going definately going to win back the top slot from the 'cowboy posse' (well done BTW)

As a taster, here's a couple of shots of our prize winning 2006 game THE THING:








The helicopter was my bit  ::

Think I might have seen the thing, and happily played on the Tunguska game ( was it at Sheffield Triples ?), wish I'd seen the Still layout in the plastic as it were.

[celtoslegion]

the table and minis look great - nice ideas all around!

[Boggler]

I forgot to mention that some of the guys will be taking Hillbilly Hell to Triples in Sheffield so, if you're up North, you can see the game first hand.

Hey Boggler, I never did find the game at Warfare, where abouts were you located?

[Boggler]

We were in the corner of the hall where the competition games and demo games were located. We were tucked away a bit so next year we'll probably get a banner or board to make us more visible. Sorry you missed us.

Ahh, oh well never mind, I'll come and say heloo next time. I was looking froward to seeing your still and the game., The photos look great and the Thing game looks splendid

[Lowtardog]

Damn I missed it too  and I was in the hall all weekend, lovely terrain and a great game. I love the Thing game too

[Boggler]

Yep, The Thing was a great game. If anything I think it was the best we've done. Have a look at these pictures:







The conversions were done by Ian, who devised the game and did most of the background rules writing and gamesmastering. He's got some cracking ideas for next year so if you like The Thing you're in for a treat at Warfare 2008.
