Yesterday I played four different games in one day… and it was great fun.

I have put up battle reports for them all on my site if you fancy having a read.

The first was a game of Hostile Actions – 15mm sci-fi action.

The second was a game of Blood Sweat & Iron – ACW river battles.

The third was a game of Stars & Lasers – Spaceship battles.

link

The fourth was a game of The Last Drifters – Post apocalyptic car battles.

You are a lucky person!

I hope to have a day like that someday.

@Andrew Walters it has been a while since I had played anything so when I got a whole day free I went a bit crazy.

Four games was great but very tiring.

Fantastic. Never had a 4 game day even at a gaming convention.

Lonely Gamer17 Sep 2024 6:34 a.m. PST

@huron725 I have never gone that silly in one day before, but it was lots of fun.

It might be a while though before I do it again!

I don't think I've ever been in 4 miniatures game in a single day. Bravo, sir!

Lonely Gamer18 Sep 2024 8:03 a.m. PST

@Oberlindes Sol LIC thank you.

I just hope the food selections to power you through the day were as awesome as the games.

@ViscountEric thanks, just coffee and biscuits, but I survived! 😉

I have played that many, usually one or two were 'fillers' and hardly count. That said, I am jealous of even one now.

Congrats!

Also, those were Brit biscuits, as I had to remind myself.

In my current location, folks would be asking "no gravy?"

PS Just had a look at a quick video of Last Drifters and will hope to see more. Car Wars and Gaslands both great games, but just not my sweet spot.

PPS Wait, are you THAT Mac?

Lonely Gamer21 Sep 2024 6:55 p.m. PST

@TheBeast ….erm yes, probably ( I'm not that Mac if I owe you money! 😉 )

I played lots of car battle games, but like you none hit my sweet spot either, that's why I wrote The Last Drifters.

I guess the same could be said for Stars & Lasers, I couldn't find a spaceship game that I liked, and now the same with Hostile Actions.

Blood Sweat & Iron I wrote for a friend.

Sorry for leaving this hang. You HAVE received money, but not asking for any back.

Just, I saw a video on LD, and realized the 'Mac' interviewed was you.

@TheBeast yep there are a few videos out there with me waffling on about games or Salute or some hobby related stuff 🙄
