Several of us attend NJ Con in Edison, New Jersey, last weekend. We ran a series of games on the same terrain, representing different historical periods. Most of the games use Combat Patrol(TM): World War II (http://bucksurdu.com/Buck_Surdu/Combat_Patrol.html), sometimes with one of the free supplements. The Combat Patrol(TM) games included a War of 1812 skirmish with Americans attacking a small British port on a Caribbean island (using the Napoleonic supplement), Moros in the Philippines (original WWII rules with a couple of scenario specific modifications), and cowboys (with the recently-released Wild West supplement).

Nice looking games! It's great the way you were able to use the terrain over for different periods.

Lovely looking table, Buck. I agree that it's very clever how you used the layout for the different games. Thanks for sharing!
