Who will marry Angel Face ?
« on: January 26, 2008, 06:43:45 PM »
A small account of our latest Legends of the Old West campaign in Paris (Sartrouville). There were 14 great players, and tons of great scenery.

The goal of the campaign was to marry a whorehouse keeper called Angel Face (who happened to be the exclusive mini given to every convention participants this year).

Enjoy ! The link is bilingual.

(The next campaign will be the 7th anf 8th of June in Paris (Kremlin-Bicêtre) and will lbe umpired by me. It is a public event and, yes, this is an advertisement :-) ).

No. I don't think so.

Sounds like it was a good campaign, and looked good too.  :o What a cool mini,  any chance there might be some left over for sale??

That big gun reminds me of the old PC game Outlaws. You could carry around a Gatling gun on your back on the later levels. Once you set it up you couldn't move until you put it away again, but it was good fun mowing the bad guys down with it.

It's a fantastic mini, and goes great with Isembard Kickass Brunel.

It's not even on ebay :( .

This sounds like an awesome idea for a campaign!

I'd be *very* interested in the rules y'all used for the campaign as well as the scenarios.

Please share!!!

Wow. I just answered the same question somewhere else ! Let's copy and paste !

Quote
The scenarios are included in the report (at the bottom of the page).
Unfortunately, I wrote them in French and I don't feel courageaous
enough to translate them. The rules are in my head.

The two first games were on the special scenarios. At the end of each
scenarios, players gained about 0-6 flowers/dresses/bottles of
perfume/hats/jewels/etc. This gave a ranking of the players, based on
the presents they could give Angel Face.

The third game was mostly improvised, some of the players did not
played it at all, either from lack of time or because they were tired.
Some players had to hack down telegraph poles (Angel Face doesn't like
bad news) because someone had brought nice models of telegraph poles.
A player faced two opponents in a vendetta scenario, with the help of
a soiled dove (empolyee of Angel Face), because at the last campaign
he was bragging that he could handle two opponents a a time (and he
won !). Two players played the stagecoach scenario (which we rarely
play), with the coach carrying a hairdresser.

The third game only gave bonus/malus. Some events could have an
influence. One player got a penalty because his posse leader became
blind in one eye (Angel Face likes beautiful faces).

The first half of the ranking were the favorites. The other players
attacked the saloon defended by the favorites. This was the fourth and
last game. Only the posses' heroes played and I started the game as
soon as possible, with the late players arriving when they were ready.
We had no time to finish this game but it was fun. I had rules ready
for Angel Face and the portative gatling gun in case some non favorite
characters would have entered the saloon but did not have a chance to
play it.

This was campaign for fun, as most of the campaigns we organize, and
the ranking must not be taken too seriously.


And for the mini, I do not belong to the club that hosted the campaign. I will ask them.
