Set up for our club's one day miniatures gaming convention, BARRAGE XVI, happened to fall on one of our regular meeting nights this year, so we decided to just go ahead and hold our meeting after we were finished getting ready for the convention, right there in the Community Center where we were setting up One of the games we ran was another playtest of our under-development "Look,Sarge, No Charts: Fantasy, Ancients, & Medievals" (LSNC:FAM) rules, using 10mm figures. This was the first run of these rules for the club at large, and in general they were very favorably received. We still have a number of kinks to work out, but I'm really thrilled by the look and feel of the games so far.

Cool. Nice looking battle. it's good to see a good mix of 10mm figures. I like the bats, are they home made? |

Glad you like the pictures. Yes, the bats are made from Halloween confetti glued individually to thin wires. Then the wires were glued to the base. |

Some very nice looking troops! How large a battle do you see the rules effectively handling? Thanks, John |

Thanks for your kind remark regarding the troops. Each base represents a unit of approximately 400 infantry or half as many cavalry. A player controls about 10 to 15 of these bases. The playtest game we did here was with 8 players and was completed in about 3 hours. |
