Five Feet of Rivers
Happy Labor Day. For my labor of the day, I finished off some river pieces. A single piece of 3-inch by 24-inch bass wood was enough to make five feet of rivers. Using the RAW, you’ll never need more than 36-inches of river, but with three lengths of unbroken...
Grinding Away at the One Hour Wargame Box
Should have a little something new to show you near the end of this long Labor Day weekend, but here’s a couple shots found buried on my cell phone. To give you a better idea how easy it is to work in 6mm, how about a couple of pre-paint...
One Hour Wargames: Towns
The built-up areas in Neil Thomas’ One Hour Wargames towns have varying effects on movement depending on the historic era. For the medieval era, they don’t have any effect at all. And yet, in the scenarios listed, they often trigger special rules or serve as objective markers. So from...
Medieval Knights – The Good Guys Group Shot
That last post was getting a bit image heavy*. So how about a second post with a nice group shot of all four units of hard charging knights ready for battle? Now that’s what a massed charge should look like. None of this three-figures-per-stand nonsense you see from guys...
Medieval Knights – The Good Guys
This post sure was a long time coming. Four stands of 6mm medieval knights ready to roll for a game of Neil Thomas’ One Hour Wargames. These are all Heroics and Ros figures mounted on basswood bases three inches wide by two inches deep. These stands each have one bannerman...
Session 10 – Spider Manor
Having been hired by the shining hero, Captain Von Der Fule of Candlekeep to investigate the missing wizard brothers, Mordecai and Lucius Malvern, the party finds itself on a slight rise overlooking Malvern Manor. But something is amiss! Ain’t it always? Three sides of the manor are covered in...
Session 9 – The New Guy
Two days after the slaad attack and assassination attempt, the caravan is startled by the approach of a half orc paladin astride a mighty charger. Mordred, his name, a paladin in service to the Church of Torm, his profession. He immediately approaches Aramis, the party’s cleric and fellow servant of...
Session 8 – Slaad Clown Faces, Part Two
Way behind on these write-ups. Time is tight, and given the choice between actual gaming and talking about gaming on the internet, I’ll take the former over the latter any day. What do you think I am, some sort of RPG.net degenerate? When last we left our plucky heroes,...
Medieval Comparison Shot
One of the little challenges for old men like me who game with little men like these 6mm Heroics and Ros figures is finding a way to make it obvious from a distance which little horde is which. One of my helpful solutions is to base the individual figures...
Last Medieval Footies
Don’t think I mentioned yet that this whole army is built from the fine medieval range of Heroics and Ros. Today’s offering is the poorly armed rabble called up from every mudhole village, handed a sharp stick, and pointed at the enemy. What these levies lack in courage and...
