Not do you drink while gaming (or at all). Do you have alcoholic beverages in miniature on your tabletop? I have … A few individual figures drinking (mugs raised, that sort) Crates and barrels for pirates and prohibition rum runners A chemical plant that has an optional distillery sign A couple alcohol billboards A few inns, pubs, and bars |

I have a few SYW and medieval figs lifting a mug – and of course the Foundry Jolly Monks with their keg of beer! link |

My Dwarves always have some, some even have mugs as lethal weapons. |

There is a Russian grenadier in one of my Napoleonic era army drinking from a flask, and it would be a good guess vodka is involved |

Well, when the mines are finally exhausted employment opportunities for the little fellas are limited, so… 'hi ho, hi ho, it's off to mug we go…' |

Scratchbuilt drinking accessories: A super spy with a martini glass (carved from a bit of styrene). A roman sentry with a wine goblet standing guard duty at the vineyard DBA camp (carved down from a spear shaft in hand). *** Looking for a crate of wine bottles to use as a Bolt Action objective marker. |

I have the very nice beer wagon from Thingsfromthebasement and a Whiskey wagon from Hinchliffe. Eureka makes a "not Flashman" with a brandy snifter. Of course I have one! |
Gerard Leman | 29 Nov 2018 6:57 p.m. PST |
I have a unit of cossaks. I dip them into the cheapest bottle of Chateau Thames Embankment I can find so that they smell right on the table. :-) |

If we game on Fridays, my son in law and I will generally share a wine bottle of a strong beer before dinner. |

MiniMo Go to Michaels (or online) and get the Darice Timeless Minis package of 6 winebottles #2306-15. No crate but you could use the milk crate 2306-31 and paint it brown. |

I went to Hobby Lobby and asked for some barrel shaped beads. They didn't have any, but they did have barrel shaped barrels! Cut on a lathe with rings and everything. Cheap too. In that scale that can be anything, but those are the same barrels that Thingsfromthebasement uses with their laser cut beer wagon. I drill a hole in one end, and shove a toothpick in. Dip in the usual Dip, and flip over and jam the toothpick into a piece of scrap styrofoam. Do I need to tell you to wear gloves? I hope not. |

No, but now that you mention it, maybe I should. |

I use it to fix pigments ;-) |
ZULUPAUL | 30 Nov 2018 3:32 a.m. PST |
I have a few. A wheelbarrow with Bugman's beer for my dwarves & a couple of fantasy guys drinking from a bottle. |
FusilierDan | 30 Nov 2018 5:23 a.m. PST |
A few barmaids with mugs and a fair number of hogs heads containing beer, wine, or gunpowder depending on the scenario. |

My lot are constantly hammering it…. Mead

If I can remember last night's game, then I didn't drink enough. |

Amongst others, I have a Viking with a flagon, must paint it one day. |

Pauls Bods: EXCELLENT vignettes! So, would anyone be interested in purchasing a figure tossing their proverbial "cookies" as a result of the "fun" for their vignette? |

So, would anyone be interested in purchasing a figure tossing their proverbial "cookies" as a result of Actually, I have been wanting to convert a few such figures as status markers for various types of non-lethal incapacitating agent effects … Brings back nostalgic memories of tear gas training events. Ah, the good old days! ;) |

"Shanks" Evans, a Rebel Brigadier, had a German aide to carry his "barrelito" of high test refreshment. That would be a great command stand, and an increasing drunk check as the game wares on. |

I don't have alcoholic beverages in miniature, I prefer them full size! |
Bowman | 07 Dec 2018 6:34 a.m. PST |
Pauls Bods: EXCELLENT vignettes! Agreed. I fact I wonder if Paul plays in any wargames with his miniature revelers having so much fun. |
