War of 1812 Game - Knuckleduster Figures. Click all pix to enlarge. |
I did not have a lot of time to roam through the game area at Little Wars for photo shooting, but here are a few that I snapped before the dealer area opened at 10AM Saturday morning. These were some of the better games that I saw, in terms of either terrain or colorful figures, or guys just having a darn good time of it. Click all pictures once or twice to enlarge the view.

Japanese Samauri game in 28mm |

Knuckleduster Figures Booth. Nice laser cut building kits and nice Western and 1812 figures. |
|
A Napoleonic game of sorts, using 15mm figures and nice looking terrain boards. |
|
The Last Square's annual WW2 mega game. |
|
Napoleonic game featuring nothing but cavalry. Lieberwolkowitz 1813 perhaps? Great concept and I could tell that the players were really enjoying themselves in this one. |
|
Geo Hex Terrain still looks great. |
|
Thoroughbred Figures Booth - some great looking 15mm ship kits. |
I did not have much time to do any shopping for myself, but I took advantage of the fact that The Last Square was across the aisle from the Fife & Drum booth, so I picked up a lot of Silfur Tufts to use for my figure bases. I also acquired a copy of Muskets & Tomohawks skirmish rules from Mr. Extra Crispy himself, who read my comment on Face Book that I could not find a copy of the rules in the dealer area. So on Saturday, Mark stopped by my booth and I bought a copy of the rules from him. How's that for personal service? (thumbs up in my book). I also bought a book on Gettysburg that featured drawings by Keith Rocco and pictures of the actual equipment that is at the Gettysburg National Park museum. I can't recall the name of the book right now, but it is a very nice book to have if you are an ACW buff.

The hobby sure has come a long way from green bedsheets or towels thrown over tables and/or bright green painted tabletops.

ReplyDeleteHope the dealers area goes well for F&D Minis
There were many great looking tables at Little Wars this year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your photos. I hope Fife & Drum minis sold well throughout the event.
ReplyDeleteSome lovely looking games there... a lot of effort to make the games look so good but then they leave coffee cups, papers, and clutter on the tabletop...go figure! :o)
ReplyDeleteThe 15mm ships at Thoroughbred look fantastic! Looks like it was a great event.
