It was good to see some familiar faces on the table. Well good to see the ones around it too but Jeff kindly gave a home to what was left of my 25mm Persian and Greek armies. Now refurbished and based up for C&C they have joined with his forces and are marching off to war again, a sight to gladden the heart.
The game was enjoyable and at one point late in the day we had victory within our grasp with just a little luck but the luck didn't come, Alexander came instead!
If you're going to be at Huzzah! and like Ancients, check Jeff's game out!
Wonderful looking game Ross. The elephants are splendid.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the closest one is Garrison, the other 2 are Hichliffe.
DeleteReally enjoyed seeing pictures of the game. One to watch out for at Huzzah!
ReplyDeleteThere will be a lot of good games tgere. I must try to remember to snap some pictures.
DeleteSuperb, a spectacular table!
ReplyDeleteJeff did a good job on this.
DeleteThe game looks great! The hex grid is very well disguise! What is the trick?
ReplyDeleteI think there are 2 main parts. He painted a mottled/camouflage pattern for the ground then used a fine pen to draw in just the corners of the hexes. They are clear enough when moving units (though my eyes would have appreciated a dash in the middle of the sides) but almost disappear when you stand back.
DeleteThank you very much for your detailed explanation Ross.
DeleteAlways gratifying to see passed on figures put to good use—the game looked a treat.
