MORE FIGHTING IN THE INNER CITY

Just a couple of quick shots of another AT-43 game at the shop the other night. One of our members (Mike G.) hosted a game with his brother-in-law. They had requested the urban terrain for the game, and looked like they had a great time.

I believe Mike was the Therians, while his brother-in-law was the Red Block.

Until next time…

Cheers!

I GET TO PLAY

The other day I finally got a chance to get in a game again – AT-43 to be exact. Me and Jeff P. played a combined UNA force, while Mark and Matt were the traitorous Red Block.

The game got off to a horrible start for Jeff and I. We didn’t have nearly enough leadership points and the dice just weren’t in our favor. Well, we kept on persevering (actually more accurately “whined our way through”) and things finally started to turn in our favor.

For me, my strategy of leaving my Fire Toads on a hill in a perpetual state of disorganization (without enough leadership to activate them) and soaking up as much abuse as the Red Block could dish out paid off. We slowly whittled away at the Red Block striders until the last one failed its morale check and fled.

This left a lot of Red block troopers against few UNA troops, but a couple three striders (including two Cobras). Due to time constraints, we had to call the game but I sure we could have still found a way to loose it. J

Until next time…

MORE THERIAN SHENANIGANS

I got a couple of pictures of another AT-43 game at the shop (you can’t turn around without banging into one in the shop nowadays it seems J). Apparently the Therians were once again up to no good, and it was up to the heroic Red Block to stop them.

There were a few interesting moments in the game, including the wee little Kolossi staring down a wraith Golgoth.

Well, until next time…

Cheers!

PLAYTESTING THE FUTURE

Blitzkrieg Commander and Cold War Commander are two of the most popular historical rulesets played at the shop. Recently the author of the rules, Pete Jones, has begun work on a sci-fi version of the rules. Now while I can’t divulge any of the rules, I can show you pictures from the various playtest games that have been going on in the shop.

Enjoy…
