IHMN at PAW, Plymouth 1-2-14
« on: 01 February 2014, 09:35:27 PM »
Had a great day running an IHMN participation game at the Plymouth wargames show. The Return of the League of a Extraordinary Gentlemen went down really well and made quite a few converts. On top of that it won best participation game :)

The scenario was to rescue Prof. Cavor from the clutches of Moriarty who was getting Cavor to create something horrendous, the Cavorite gun! Moriarty and the proffessor were protected by some local thugs and two squads of Sturm-Truppen with a prototype Kliene-Panzerkampfwagon I. I'm happy to report that the a Professor was rescued in each game but Moriarty escaped with a prototype Cavorite pistol on more than one occasion...

Here's some pictures from today-

Looks like a great game. :)

But where was Mina Murray?

Using Mina would have given someone an unfair advantage due to her being almost impossible to kill...  :)

Working on ideas for the next episode already ;)

In one of the games Quartermain was killed but the guy running him was consoled when I said that all he needed to do was be buried in Africa and he would soon be back :)
