Well, I had a short amount of time this morning, so I headed for the game which was set up and 3 turns in. Then I remembered that the plan had been to go grid free and to try my MacDuff rules on the small table. So I reorganized the troops and started over.

| The MacDuff game in progress. The cards indicate units that have activated this turn. |
I messed up the scenario unit conversion and the arrival mechanism a little but the game was still OK. However, by the time the game was half done, the old card activation just wasn't "doing it" for me anymore. So, I reset the game again and started playing with my usual rules.
It was going nicely but by the time I was halfway through, time was up! It was time to clear the table so I could use it as a worktable to paint shelves for an expanded walk-in bedroom closet which I'm building.
I should have my table back by Sunday and time to reset the table and play a game all the way through.
Ah ! - real life stops play !
ReplyDeleteHate it when that happens, but used to it.
DeleteRoss Mac,
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing how your battle goes, once you manage to get past the halfway mark!
All the best,
Bob
At least its an old dependable scenario.
DeleteSometimes, just doesn't go as planned.
ReplyDeleteI like to think of it as "situation normal". :)
DeleteGood luck with finishing your game, it looks great!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking to restart it but now that the table is 2/3 cleared, it might come back in a different period.
DeleteAll of your quick starts and stops are giving me whiplash!
ReplyDeleteA shot of whiskey should help. Or tea.
DeleteNothing wrong with the occasional mulligan.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. No prize money riding on this.

ReplyDeleteBut honestly, would it have been a real battle if everything had gone smoothly?
This table may be your most eclectic bunch of figures yet!
