Bandits

 

Have built me some "Bandits" for The Silver Bayonet, used different plastic minis i had and made 10 men with a broken morale compass.

Built a cottage

 

Had the need for some additional buildings, primary to use with The Silver Bayonet in an German setting, started out with a small cottage.

Sir Donald the Duck Knight

Found this mini from Reaper at the local game shop and just had to have him, reminded me of my RPG days with the Swedish RPG Drakar och Demoner there you could have a Duck as a character. Will use him for Burrows and Badgers.

Monsters for the Silver Bayonet #2

 

Some more monsters for the Silver Bayonet rules by Osprey. This time a bunch of Goblins (Old GW and Foundry Snotlings with plastic napoleonic hats etc.) I Will run 1 Base as 1 Goblin, second you have two Vampires (both minis from Reaper).

Monsters for the Silver Bayonet #1

 

Been painting some of the monsters for the Silver Bayonet rules by Osprey. The first batch are a Demon (dont know where the mini are from, big in plastic), then we have a Living Scarecrow (mini from Reaper). The next 4 minis will be used as Ghouls and Hobgoblin (minis from reaper) and last you have a Ghost (mini from North Star). 

Second Battle of Tabasco

Found some pictures from our Mexican-American war game "Second Battle of Tabasco" that I run at the club a couple of month ago using the Rebels and Patriot rules published by Osprey.

The battle was fought 15-16 June 1847, the American was advancing along Tabasco river in steamboats to capture the city of San Juan Bautista (presentday Villahermosa). 

The Mexican had blocked the river and set up fieldworks to protect the blocades. Our game focused on the land attack made on the morning 16 June 1847 by the American forces leader Commodore Perry and some 1000 men with the objective to cleare the field works and caprutre the city. The fieldworks was defended by Colonel Hidalgo and his 600 men that had to leave their breakfast uneaten to take up the fight. 

Historacly the Americans on the steamers managed to get pass the blocade and capture the city before Commodore Perry managed to arrive there on foot.

Below you can see some pictures from our game, we run it as the Scenario "Retreat to the Sunken Road" from the rules, there the Mexican had leave their breakfast and retreat back from the fieldworks to Fort Iturbide just outside the City, it all ended in an American Victory.
