The Horrors of Normandy
« on: November 21, 2016, 01:32:50 AM »
So, I ran a small game for my friends using a homebrew system.  It was, essentially, the Thule Society working with the Cult of the Yellow King to summon otherworldly beasties in order to stop the Normandy invasion.  Having heard of the plan, Hellboy recruits Captain America and Bucky Barnes to stop them.

I don't have a real timeline of the game - I was wayyy too busy running it. But I did take pretty pictures.

It was a great game, Neil.
Lots of fun, even with my poor die rolling.
Thanks for running it.

That looks so fun!

Love looking at the pictures.  I was able to spot Cap, Bucky, and Hellboy.

Could you tell me what the figure is in the fourth picture, across the Hedges from Hellboy?

The critter across the hedgerow is the Werewolf from the ill fated Weird West Kickstarter that, thankfully, fulfilled its goals after almost two years, and then only after Ainsty bought the molds.   :?

He was Hellboy's ally, Loup Garou, French Resistance fighter.  He couldn't get through the Renault's armor, but he slaughtered the crew when they failed a Leadership roll and bailed out.

More pics!





Including some real close-ups - and I am not sold on them.  All I see are the flaws...
