Posting this from December and my Apparently-Annual Holiday game at Giga Bites Cafe in Marietta GA. This time I went for a completely different setting with the Second Seminole War set in the 1838ish Florida territory. It was a bit smaller than usual scenario with 4 players, 2 Seminoles, a militia group and a US Dragoon unit. I was playing the settler family. As with all Holiday games, I would conduct a quiz at the end of the turn (Water Break). The correct guesses get a Command chip to play in the upcoming phase. This year the questions were about Native American holiday myths and traditions and because of the setting we had several rounds of 'Floriduh Man' stumpers. (Hint: when in doubt assume the answer involves drunk and naked) I also had plenty of treats on hand including orange flavored chocolate--its Florida. 15mm minis and Sharp Practice rules Link to flickr site Click on the pics to get the full AAR: link ‌Lt Yarrow returns to rally his men by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Battle of the pig pen by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌SnakeLeaf reappears by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Its bacon! by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌And more Seminoles under SnakeLeaf appear by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Dragoons arrive by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌The Biggers Homestead by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Official Beer of the 2022 Apparently-Annual-Holiday-Sharp-Practice-Game by Mark Luther, on Flickr Mark

Very interesting! Who manufactured the miniatures?

Freikorps did a range of 2SW minis but most are conversions from Mex Am ranges.
