A few weeks ago I had another outdoor game planned. Sadly we (Martin, Pete, Lloyd, Russell and I) were rained off so we retreated indoors and I arranged some other games. To start we played one of the scenarios in the Fistful of Lead book. Some Indians (not a fashionable title, but I was brought up in the 1970s and that's what they were called in black & white movies) attacked a farmstead, little knowing that a few Rangers were overnighting there. Figures were from my own accumulation of 54mm plastics.

One of Martin's chaps runs from the woods to the rocks....
...and learns the hard way of the dangers of mincing around in the open.
In the west both Rangers were soon down and the Indians rushed the walls.
An axe
and a knife - how very unsporting!
The farmer and his wife (actually the Replicants innkeeper and serving wench) were soon involved in a desperate hand to hand combat. The Indians fought among themselves over the farmer's barrel of beer while Mrs Farmer belted one of the baddies with a pewter tankard and legged it with his tomahawk. An excellent ending!

Gina alliteration in the tile and a good AAR. Best to avoid strong armed feisty women with tankards.
Fine not Gina. Sausage fingers and autocorrect!
Great game Tim! I loved the outcome too! Your excellent use of civilian figures in your wargames would make H.G. Wells proud! Well done!

The women with tankards thing - you speak from experience?

This was the second run out for Mr & Mrs innkeeper and the first outing for the others.
That was a great game- really enjoyed it- the system plays really well.
Cheers,
Pete.
That was great fun, thanks Tim.

It seems to suit the 'spirit' of the players very well.

Who knew that 5 players and only 15 figures could be such an entertaining combination?
