Looks like you had fun. Reminds me I haven't played these rules in ages.

Dead Man's hand gives you linked 'scenes' which are all played on the same layout. The first scene is usually a mini-game (often with only 1 or 2 figures per side), which sets things up for the next scenes – the result of each game affects the next.
The game is fast enough that you can easily play through 3 scenes in an evening.

The game was definitely a lot of fun…as @Dexter says, the games are linked and scale up in terms of objectives and figs per side…very easy to get through a mini-campaign.

Cheers.

Terrement game 1 is usually a minor scene that sets up the next game which then concludes with game 3 final scene. Think most western movies. It is a great game.

Looks good!

I took those Pegasus fences you have shown and modified them a bit. A quick clip around the edges (so they can but-up against each other) and a re-paint and added some sand. They turned out wonderful. Easy conversion!
