A bad day in Sandy Hollow
« on: 02 December 2016, 10:29:35 AM »
We played a couple of Dead Man's Hand scenarios last night (the Good, the Lead and the Ugly from the rule book, but just scenes 2 and 3).
Pinkertons vs Bandidos. A first outing for my new home made wild west mat.
Two good games, both narrowly won by the Pinkertons, and as usual with DMH games, featuring some great cinematic moments. A shotgun armed dude runs across the street and attempts to blast the opposing boss through the window of Rogan's Bar only to have the gun jam, leaving him standing in the street. Amazingly he managed to survive and sprint back to cover. Someone climbed the church tower and used that as a good sniper position. A couple of shots of the town set up

Nice looking town - a good blend of visually pleasing and playable....

Yep, looks good.  Some of the buildings look to be card/paper.  They blend in nicely.

Three of the buildings (Rogan's Bar, Hardware store, Sheriff's Office) and the gallows are by 4Ground.
The church and larger adobe house are Renedra
The Billiard Hall and Triumph Oil Co are paper kits (and the only houses without lift-off roofs); don't recall the maker, I've had them over 30 years.
The Gunsmiths and Assay Office are foamcore with printed paper stuck on; someone (again I forget who) did some very nice Wild West stuff free to download years ago.
All the other buildings (bank, saloon, jail, small adobe house, barns) are scratch built from card/wood/balsa
