A short photo round up of the society’s last meeting.<\/p>\n

Our opening salvo (above) is from Alan’s 15mm War of Spanish Succession game using Maurice<\/a> rules.<\/p>\n

Now on to World War Two, John ran an introductory game of Chain of Command<\/a>, Germans vs US.<\/p>\n

Our next game(s) are naval actions using the Galleys and Galleons<\/a> rules, run by the other John and Colin.<\/p>\n

The first of these games was set in the Mediterranean sea, and uses 3D printed ships<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Their second game was set in the South China Seas, using John’s scratch built ships.<\/p>\n

And finally, off to Middle Earth with Tony & Andy playing a couple of Dragon Rampant games, both set in the Shire.<\/p>\n

In the first game Tony’s Hobbit militia, with some help from Aragorn and some D\u00fanedain Rangers defended Hobbiton from Andy’s Goblins and Warg Riders.<\/p>\n

Tony successfully defended Hobbiton in the first game.<\/p>\n

In the second game Tony turned to the dark side (sorry for mixing film tropes) and fielded Saruman and his Orcs, while Andy fielded a Dwarf contingent. Somehow we only got one picture of the victorious Dwarves.<\/p>\n

Honours were even on the day, one game each (although the “Good” side won both games)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
