Space Game from Cold Wars 2016 - Part 1

To All,
 
Here are a few shots of the Space Game that Mike Lung and I put on Cold Wars 2016.
 
Different factions land on the cheese planet. Sensing the danger the native beings, the Frigonians, man the walls and get ready to defend their village. In the far right corner the Galacteers and the Valkeeri have set up a base while on the left corner the space orcs are moving in looking to scavenge anything useful. A ship lands next to the wreckage in the middle of the board - The Robot Legion has arrived. Haters of anything organic they are on the planet to find a deadly virus and secure a nuke!

In the middle a group of Radon Zombies from the Ionosphere, along with their queen, have crash landed. In the wreckage the zombies are hiding a container of the "zombie virus" and, lo and behold, a couple of nukes.
Readers of this Blog will recognize Bill G (the smiling guy on the left) who was walking by and I asked him to run the zombies. He had another game in a couple of hours but played because I told him the zombies wouldn't last more than two turns.


Hot on the trail of the Robot Legion, the Grymn arrive and start dealing with the Robots.  Oh no, a group of minibots have discovered the nukes. The Galacteers and orcs know they are in peril and move out to assist the Grymn. The Radon Zombies, taking full advantage of the shoot-out between the Robot Legion and everything else on this side of the board, start moving the Queen and the Virus to a safer spot.


 The Galacteers use their jump packs to get into the fray. 

Meanwhile the space mice have landed and, being adrift in space, were low on supplies. They capture (and start eating) the Frigonians (who are made of cheese) and attack the village. The second Robot Legion ship descends and attack the mice in the rear. The mice send their vehicles to intercept the Robots

The Galacteers use their heavy weapon to destroy the Robot's ship, causing them to start a rear guard action while slowly moving towards their other ship. They leave the minibots behind to tie-up the enemy so they can escape.

What a crew: Bald Kevin and (two out of three) Canadians; Kevin and Brad   


More to come.....

Gnome Wars events at Fall In 2016.....

To All,

I will be running three Gnome Wars events this weekend at Cold Wars:

Here is the set-up For the Tulgas game....

F: 383 Gnome Wars: The Village of Tulgas

GM: James Stanton       Sponsor: Brigade Games      Prize: Gnomes!!
On November 11, 1918 elements of Hodson's American Infantry, 10th Highlanders, and a battery of Swiss Field Artillery were positioned in the Village of Tulgas. Suddenly, they were assaulted by the 96th Saratov Infantry regiment, part of Trotsky's newly raised Red Army. Heavily outnumbered and low on supplies, the allies had two cards in the hole - Mr. Browning and his friend Mr. Vickers. Anyone bringing a painted Gnomes at War unit from Brigade Games does not have to preregister.
