If you want them armed, Boer war figures might do. Ot maybe some Western civilan types. |

Someone should be able to help out. I remember someone (Bob Giglio?) running the 25mm "Amish Rake Fight" games at the HMGS-E cons several years back. |

Maybe some of the "Irish" civilians I have been collecting might work. Ask about them next time you're up. |

I heard that (or those) games described as the Amish vs. the Tourists. That was before I started attending the HMGS-East conventions. I would loved to have seen that. I love games with a sense of humor. But not enough that I would go to the trouble to paint up the figures myself. I do admire someone who has a good enough sense of humor to go to that trouble. A few years ago at the Host someone ran a modern civilian game, perhaps zombies. The terrain included a city park. This was during the time that some of the loonies (this will get me a bunch of stifles)were into that "occupy Wall Street" nonsense(more stifles headed my way). In the park was a tent and a sign that said "Occupy Lancaster." Another game with a sense of humor. I guess anyone playing a zombie game has a pretty good sense of humor. ( I mean that in a positive way and as a compliment, so don't stifle me for that. Tom |

Amish v Amish Zombies v "English" escaping from "English" zombies
Pitchforks, undead horses, well maintained farmhouses, beards, 19th century hats/bonnets, and shoo-fly pie. It just DON'T get better then that! |
