I have run out of space to put everything on the table at once, but that is a good thing.
It just means that every time you set up it will be different.
 ;)

You mean you don't have a predefined map for Upsheet Creek and it's surrounding area that you effectively "scroll" around for different games? Shame on your sir, shame ;)

I'm with Paul on this - my own town has never been set up the same way twice.  MUCH more fun to be had that way!

I have to admit that I do know exactly how the centre of Upsheet Creek is laid out as I ran the game with the same layout five times at BLAM.
I am leaving the rest of the Creek 'fluid' to allow more freedom in the set-up of future games.

When I set up a game nowadays, I just set up the town as I see best for each scenario so I do not have any 'official' way that it should be.
I could do, if I wanted, as the pictures on this thread record things nicely.

It is.
And hopefully things will remain this way.

You may have noticed that I did not respond to that comment.
(As I could not find the appropriate words.....).

Re: The Tree.  So, you've relocated your town to redwood country, then?  That is one whopping monster tree - very finely done.  This thread needs a special condensation of all the worthy photos for easier drooling.

Thanks!
My fictional setting is pure Hollywood-inspired so dont be surprised what you see being added.
It wont necessarily be geographically correct to any area.

As for the pics: They are pretty much pictures on every page already, just skim over the writing.
There is also a 'contents page' in the opening post if you are looking for something in particular.

Pictures of Don Pablo Diaz and his crew should be up soon......

Having finally gotten around to basing up the last two Mexicans, here they are.....








Don Pablo Diaz and his wife Maria carrying his two small children, Nico and Diego, and his teenage daughter Chickoutta.









The rest of the inhabitants of the Don's hacienda.....




....posing alongside his family are his 'band' of cowboys that patrol his land.
In the background are 'Hammers' the smith and 'Smokes' Hombre, who visits the Don occasionally....

Thanks, chaps.
 :D

Maria is from one of the Reaper Townsfolk packs.
She is on the large side, like most Reaper figures, but works fine with the Black Scorpion range, I reckon.

Ay caramba! Splendido banditos muchachos.
You're going to need a bigger town  :)
Or, as suggested before, a monster table with Upsheet Creek one side of the Rio Grande and Malamute's marvellous San Antonio on the other.
Now that would be a Salute-worthy display / participation game.

Maybe next year  ;)

Yes do it. But bring it to Tactica or somewhere else closer to me.
