Last Saturday some of the HAWKs got together for a game day at my house, with the first game being a Not Quite Seven Years War Imagi-nations battle run by gamemaster Rob Dean. The HAWKs NQSYW project uses 40mm homecast figures, with members designing their own nations and uniforms. The rules we used were the classic, "Charge!", and the scenario was "Breakout" from the Charles Grant green cover scenario book.

Once again the forces of the Pragmatic Coalition faced off against our heroic allies of the Northern Alliance. The scenario brief we received from Rob at the beginning of the game was that our Alliance forces had just conducted a large and successful raid into enemy territory and were now withdrawing with our plunder back to our homeland. However, we had detected a large and rapidly approaching body of pursuers, so we had chosen to stop part of our forces here at a spot where a single bridge crossed a river, to set up a rear guard and hold off the pursuit while our supplies made it safely to the border. We were instructed that we needed to hold out for 16 turns.

I am sure Charles Grant would be quite pleased.

Do the wooden movement trays have magnetic sheeting on top?

Thank you, Chris. (I assumed the foot figures at least were mounted on washers.)

Yes, all the figures are mounted on fender washers.
