The AGGRO Thread

[Ray Earle]

Sound very interesting. Keep us informed.

I already had a set of football rules called Corner Kick and downloaded another set from two hour wargames called "The Beautiful Game" for $5 and I think these have everything I was trying to do so no need to try and write another set.

Haven't had chance to have a game yet but look good.

Back to Aggro I've just ordered a pub from warbases think that's how I'm going to finish my table so I'll probably sell the semi house that I've been working on don't think I've got the time to make enough for a table full. Going to try and make use of the shop fronts I've already done use them with any mdf buildings I get.

Hi,
in Germany we try to make Aggro a little bit popular, but its not so easy. Very special theme...

Here some members of my firm (WIP)
For the bases, i took the 25mm from renedra. Nice, flat and fine to fill up for the small own bases from the ainstys miniatures.

[monkeylite]

Excellent. Do they have crappy burger vans at German football matches?

[Bowler]

At 2nd and smaler leagues, of sure...

I found some pics as inspiration in net for my Aggro Table.
Like the idea for backyards and little bit green on.

[monkeylite]

Yeah. I keep meaning to start my Victorian terraced houses. They'd work for loads of Victorian/steam punk and later scenery, too.

[orm1]

Nice start, been building a warbases pub.

[Bowler]

the buildings from warbases are fine.
nice price and the quality is ablolute ok. when i know whats going on my plate, i will order there.

will build up my table with a small park with a little green and some park banks.
streets and backyards like the two pics they i postet.  

maybe somebody can post pics of (his) aggro tables (or is right to say board or plate or...?!?)
the thread started of orm i know. nice ideas.

ps. sorry for my english. last lesson in school was many many years ago...

[Bowler]

has somebody an idea where to get bobbys in different poses?

scene for that could be a riot with hools against bobbys. the idea is not complete yet.
first idea is that the bobbys cost 1P normal or 2P with a dog (normal - base contact and take a card to look for bite rules).
they start to stop or kettling the hooligans and their target is to brake through (maybe to a pub or whatever)...

what you think about that element/scenario idea?

Crooked Dice has 6 differently posed police (excluding the WPC and plain clothes types).  All with separate heads too (heads in both helmets and caps are also available separately).

Offensive miniatures do mounted and riot police

For seventies police, Geezers do some with peaked cap and custodian helmet:

And as mentioned Crooked Dice do some with separate heads:

They've even got a sale on for their various police heads:

Both manufacturers go well together, imo:

It needs to be relabeled "Depressionist architecture"

It looks much like my street today.  Or it would do, if the photo included a pair of trainers hanging by their knotted laces from the telephone wires.

Great looking collection monkeylite and nice terrain it looks huge!

Pair of trainers hanging from a telephone wire? We'd kill for a pair of trainers hanging from a telephone wire round our way! All we've got is some flip flops tied to an old skipping rope!
