15mm Wargaming for Fun and Sanity: RS Showdown

CRACK ON AND GET THINGS FINISHED!

The good news- I'm getting a lot more gaming done these days. Takes up most of 3 days.

Other news - Beachhead is looming on the horizon and I need to pull my wotsit and get ahead.

Meanstwhile, all my focus has to be narrowed. I have to avoid the temptation of a MOUND of stuff in the Needs sorting awaiting basing pile.

Thus all things Martian will dominate - unless someone else does the work!

Scenery is improving with each use! Bulk, and ruminants, from Brigade. Just (superglue just dry) awning Beuda, as is the bits, barrels and the outbuilding on the excellent Croms Anvil & building.

All on Warbases bases.

Scenario Control Terrain. Complication The Rookie. I added a "dog".

Tony takes the Laxus side and we both slide on.

Black dice is an attempt to keep track of turnovers.

My crossbow gets in an excellent position, but he's alone.

Here comes Pwince Wupert! He takes on a swordsman and wins.

Dog is sniffing around - there's something over there!

Crossbow shoots his bolt (they do that a lot) disk means unloaded.

Spearman turns up & they (being consenting adults) tussle.

Dog (movement diced for) finds a comfy spot in the field.

He'll never hit me at that distance behind this cover!

Licks tip of bolt.

Bolt meets head.

"Where did that come from"!

Happy doggy, unhappy livestock.

"Tall chap, armour, big flag - take a shot"

Turning into a right bundle.

Swordsman slides over the hedge and looms over crossbow. It's a lost art, looming. You just try looming and sneering at the same time! Dedication that is.
