Decent turnout last night, although we're still a few people down due to sundry lurgies. Dave K ran a Western gunfight using the Ruthless rules that he's adopted in recent times. They have the benefit of being reasonably simple, but give a decent level of playability as well. The scenario was, I am told, loosely based on the final scene in the film 'Unforgiven' (which I still haven't seen) with several different groups trying to stop various desperadoes escaping from the town, each group also having its own personal objectives.
Things got ........messy. Very messy. My character succumbed to lead poisoning and numerous bullet holes, and several other characters also started their final journey to Boot Hill. Steve S came out on top with the highest value kills.
Next week, we'll be playing one of the various Zombicide games; not quite sure what's different about this version, but I'm sure we'll find out. In other news, the Tonbridge Wells Wargames Society have requested we provide a game at their Cavalier show on the 23rd February 2025. I offered the Peninsular War era 'An Affair of Outposts' game we've run at Broadside some time back as it's pretty much ready to go, subject to some paperwork for the scenario (and to see if I can get some more French infantry painted). More details on the event as I receive them.
See yer soon,
Neil
