The fight for Mars continues. A photo report from BLAM 2012

[Malamute]

Hostilities intensify on Mars, but this time not with the indiginous population.

Great Britain along with Japan and their Kosindan mercenaries faced off against France and the Venezian/Papal alliance.

The lancers charge the Frenchies, but fall short...





Only to be counter charged by Papist Lancers and routed from the field

Another Japanese Neff is shot from the skies. Its sort of traditional now...

I assumed just dumbfounded awe!

Truly lovely spread, and enough 'nefs to set my heart a twitter. Of the non-electronic variety.

Great eye-candy!
 

Everything on the table is seriously top-notch and beautifully turned out.
Well done, chaps!

I thought that the good Dr was bellowing a war-cry...in French, of course!

You have taken your time getting these pic up, slacker
I am gob smacked you actually managed to get all these great figures on to the table. When you were setting up there just seemed to be more and more boxes being opened. You will need to get your terrain builder to make a bigger board for future engagements.
Lovely eye candie

VSF at its best!

It was certainly a feast for the eyes! And a carnage, as these things tend to be. My (I say 'my', they are Bullshots) Homme Perroquet Cytherien irregulars benefited little from having been converted to Catholicism by French missionaries as they were turned into green mincemeat by the automaton dervishes serviced by a heathen walla in a turban. I also handled the Legionnaires Extraterrestriale which were flatten when one of the Japanese nefs was brought down by a fierce attack from a red Martian skiff. This was of course after the same troops had told the international presscorps a thing or two about the consequences of exposing intimate details about the French president and the famous Moulin Rouge cancaniuse Anna Tommiedereve.

By the by, BLAM is in England (MacLAM in Scotland, GLAM in Germany, SLAM in Sweden,; I am not sure whether there have been any CLAMs in Canada or JuteLAMs in Denmark). They are not open conventions but 'meets' between like minded chaps and ladies, where most participants have met on this forum. They usually are by invitation only to keep the numbers down to something manageable.

"They're quite mad, you know!" But its still wonderful stuff!

"They're quite mad, you know!"

I don't know who you could be referring to

Well, they do say the camera never lies...

Now that is what I call a battle!

Jolly good show chaps! 

Amazing really...
