"Eat Hitler - a report from the Jurassic era" Topic

From Ed Watts, who runs 'Eat Hitler' games on Sunday mornings at HMGS cons:

Hi Howard ! The Sunday morning game of Eat Hitler was a bit unusual, all adults excepting one teen player, and tactics were a bit different. Many players used the Ach, Mein Gott / sauropod collision table to run down Nazis they couldn't reach so as to deny them to the other players. The winner had 45 points, several runners up with 35 but the total for sauropod crushes was 85 points (Eva & Adolph were amongst the crushed).

Also had hot dino on dino action too as one pack of velociraptors was reduced from 6 to 2 by the Allosaurus and there were losses to the pteranodons and wounds handed out to other carnivores.

Blondie the dog caused a fair amount of damage and was a much sought after target. It was the usual Sunday morning carnage and I hope the people who asked for the rules source will be visiting soon."

Rules are here:

Nice models and terrain ! I thought Hitler escaped to South America not eaten by dinos ?

He was eaten by dinos after escaping to South America. The time machine was to reverse the Nazi loss.

Any game where you get to kill Nazi's is a winner. Games where they don't really stand a chance are better still.

"Hey!
I'm SS!
Do you know who I am???"

CHOMP

I agree with Scott, btw.
They don't deserve a fair game.

Unless Senor Squint wants to run an Eat Hitler at Fall In. If that's the case we need points to ensure a fair battle.

I hate when you play Eat Hitler with min/maxers and they field a force of all Tyrannosaurs.

I think I've asked this before (so apologies if so), but what are the best sources for Hitler and his allies? My dinosaurs are hungry.

I'd love to get all I need from just a few sources (instead of 10). Perhaps Artizan and Pulp Figures? Or are there other sources that would provide more options or simpler shopping?

Thanks!

My first Hitler was a Foundry German officer with the distinctive moustache simply painted on. Later I got a Black Tree model with the casual 'sieg heil' pose.

Since this is less about actual dress in the Berlin of April 1945 than comically hapless Nazis running about ahead of giant jaws, I'd look at Pulp Figures ranges.

Yes – their "Arrogant Gestapo Officers" pretty much fit the bill, and there are three other packs in similar vein.

Wonderful--thanks!

You could use the Hitler in ballet tutu with shotgun from the Golgo Island line of figures. That would be an interesting addition to your games.

This looks insane. I want to know more.
