Xmas Wars Claiming limited resources. Twice.

While the rest of the world moved on to renewable energy only one nation still used fossil fuels.

The raw ingredients of plastic toys remain buried in remote locations.

The hint is, if you are have to pay stupid prices and fight long wars to get the stuff, try funding another technology

Game. Control Terrain Explosives.

Easiest was to make the explosive bits the ones to protect or capture.  These are marked with pennies.

The Game.  For once I won the toss and took the Snowmen.  Tony's placed on table.


Jack zooms in , tries a trip which fails.


Gets a swordsman's attention.  Even with belated help, he goes under and slips away.




Initiative seized on death, a spearman arrives.


His carrot is crunched.  Is it me or are these games just a tad more vicious than normal.  Swordsman get his long distance.



Future Santa moves up in a non gender specific way.


I attempt to advance.



Countered.


Taking advantage of ground, hatchet leaps!


Failure, oh no, another spear!


Knife comes to hatchets aid.


A free for all develops.


Future Santa throws down Knife.


Meanstwhile, just around the corner-.


Sneaking biscuit.


Hatchet puts the sword down.  Now he must face Future Santa.



Kane arrives too late, he's toasted.


Blunderbuss behind me!


Kane despite the high ground goes down!



The Gingerbreads hold all the objectives and I'm done.

Game 2  I lose the toss, so Gingerbreads are defending again.



"Oi, you can't come in 'ere!"


Future Santa dashes in.


Rumble!  Saucepan blinks, which doesn't help Kane-.



In leaps Jack, pushing Santa around!


Leaving Axe to hold the pass.



Sword come in and puts snowflake Jack down, but he kicks out in a hissy fit.



Future Santa is in revenge mode.


Clash of the leaders.


Jacks down!


But Axe succumbs to an electric blast.


Sword takes on the sinister saucepan.


Santa!  Look out he's behind you!


Zapped then stabbed!  That's not nice!


Never have we had a game where the defender is right up to the attackers base line.


Saucepan gets dented.


Now I have to get in close before their electrickery gets going.


Knife gets the "nee nee nee" axe treatment.


Hatchet, he's got a mean look-.




Blunderbuss takes a long shot that misses.


Kane is looking mean, that carrot is starting to glow---.


Zap!  Dead!


Sword surrounded, zapped and stabbed!


Snowmen down to 2, Gingers 3.  The hunt is on-.




Both snowmen concentrate on Blunderbuss before he can reload.



Kane takes on the 2 spear all the way down the table.


One down, then the other!



Resources claimed.



The last one staggers up and succumbs to sleeting electrickery!



Wow, short, sharp and vicious games!  Mostly melee weapons does give a different game.
