The Chicago Way Double Cross AAR Update 1-2-17

[odd duck]

Great looking terrain you have there where did you get the street lights?

[ivor13]

Thanks a lot!
The lamp posts I picked up off of Ebay a few years ago; I think I got like 50 for super cheap (can't remember exactly as it's been so long). I'm sure that they, or something comparible, are still available - search HO scale lamp posts, filter it by lowest cost plus shipping and I'm sure that you'll find something that works for you!
They actually have working lights in them, though I cut the wires for my purposes

Thanks! It was a lot of fun talking with people about the buildings, signs, figures, rules, etc. throughout the day. I think that the game went well and had so many requests that I ran another one Saturday night - full reports coming soon

Finally got my AAR's written from Historicon - here are a few photos, more on the actual report link below

Played a little night time scenario with The Chicago Way, using a blue light to give the game a bit of atmosphere

I've been meaning to ask how you colored the edges of your clear bases? Is it a stain, paint, what?

[ivor13]

It's just paint  I used the 4Ground base paints as they were on the table when I was doing touch-ups on all the buildings, but I'm sure any water based paint will work, like Vallejo for instance. The paint rubs right off with your finger so I'm able to change figures on the "teams" very easily. I had tried rubber bands to go around the bases but that was a nightmare!
Also, the bases are from Likto.
