Demogame - Battle at Stäket 1719



As you know I been working on some terrain and a Russian galley for a demogame this Sunday and Monday due to the Battle of Stäket 13 August 1719.

We set up our game in the Chapel at Skogsö outside Stockholm, the chapel are located on the old battle filed just by one of the narrowest part of the strait.



Below some pictures from the game, sorry about the poor quality, but it was bad lighting and to much sun :)

Building a Galley and gameboard for Displaygame this weekend...



Been quite busy the last week as I have been working on a Russian galley and a 180x360cm game board for a Display game of the Battle at Stäket 1719 this weekend, its 299 years sins the battle and the Battlefield museum HAMN have a bunch of activetys and free entrance both Sunday 12/8 and Monday 13/8.

Yes we run the Battle at Stäket 1719 at Salute this year, but the splendind terrain and Gelleys that Jan built are in England so i had to do a quick and dirty build to be able to set-up the game.

The game board took me about 12 hours to make and the galley about the same amount of time, finished the painting of the Galley, that are in 1:50 scale, today and now I will focus on smaller details for the battle.

Below a bunch of pictures from my work.
