COOL LOOKING game, Town, & minis...not necessarily in that order. GREAT STUFF...Pilgrim!
Thanks, Amigo!
I can actually say that and have it sound appropriate for once....
Playing already 
Well, the buildings are not all finished yet, and the figures were 'proxied' to some degree as we just wanted to get a couple of games in to get a 'feel' of the period etc...
It obviously worked as Legionnaire Bert now wants to actually colour in his cowboys and Tom the B*astard bought his band of prospectors last night.
smokezombie has put us to shame, though.
He has almost finished his entire band of Banditos.
I guess I will just have to get some paint on my own soonish....
(Although those lovely Greys will do me for now...gotta get the buildings finished first, priorities and all that
).
Here are some pics of the second game; Hang 'em high!
Again it fell to smokezombies Banditos to attempt to rescue another of their fellows who was due to be hanged for various offences, including 'going equipped with offensive headgear' and being armed with a 'ridiculous accent'....
Performing the hanging would be my own bunch of Lawmen, again represented by those very nice Grey fellas.....(
).
(I opted to continue to use the same gang roster from the first game as Tom the B*stard wanted to start his own band equipped in the way he wanted).
Things started badly for the Mexicans, who decided that they would just saunter arrogantly into town as they had in the previous game.
It would not be so easy for them this time as there were two rifle-armed Vigilantes on the roof of the Bank overlooking the gallows, who both took potshots at the Bandito chief at extreme range.
The first shot hit and wounded the outlaw chief, who used both of his Fortune points to escape death....only to be gunned down by an amazing shot from the second rifleman!
The twelve innocent bystanders did an amazing job of getting in everyone's way, several of which were mercilessly gunned down by the outlaw scum!
(In fact, the rules for the panicking bystanders caused an equal measure of fun and frustration, depending on whose turn it was to move them...a brilliant idea, which I shall shamelessly steal for future use...
).
The game was pretty close and tense but was eventually settled by the Sheriff himself and his one-armed Deputy (injury from the first game...) who waded in and took a couple of Mexican villains out in a session of fisticuffs which caused the rest to break and run.
Good fun all round.
Here are a couple of pics that were taken as an afterthought towards the end of the game....
The Accused...
The innocent bystanders causing chaos...
'Time for a whooppin'!'
