A big thanks to everyone who came along and said hello at Call to Arms this weekend. It was great to get so many enthusiastic players and to put faces to internet-names! I've posted a little about my days at the convention on my blog. link
It was great – planning something even bigger for next year! All the best. Joe |

Yes, a very enjoyable day of gaming for me. Even got my Maori warriors to take part (the Maori invasion of Deadwood, or the American invasion of Kororareka?!). Your Western town is magnificent. Each time I see it, I pick little details I hadn't noticed before (this time it was the little verandahs over each window of a building in one of the pics on your blog posting). Looking forward to some clues on your next big project
Cheers Roly |

Joe, A very nice looking game and presentation on your part. Excellent modeling, painting and creative process. You have obviously done your homework on the American West, although I am scratching my head a bit about the Maori Warriors showing up in Leadwood. Of course, your information source seems to come from the Hollywood version of the Old West (nothing wrong with that BTW). Also, HMSW Gargantua looks fantastic! Herb |

I only had a very short time to spend at the convention but it was great to see Joe's wargame – both scenery which is stunning and the obviously happy players involved. I hope to see more at the next convention and maybe get some time to participate. Craig |

Great game Joe and crew, thanks for letting me play on it for a couple of hours. Dan. |

Thanks again, all! Herb – thank you. HMSW Gargantua continues to develop – I've just posted some fiddly bits on my blog. Craig – I'm planning something new for next year and may book two tables so that Leadwood can return too. I'm sure there will be plenty of folks ready to umpire a game or two for me. Dan – a pleasure. Hope to get another game with you in the not too distant! |
