At least you didn't have to turn around half-way because some jager-infused fool left his backpack in your car, eh?

Haha, yeah. This year, FML for completely different reasons. :wink:

The game was fun, though. Ligedog was DM, the players were EOTB, capitalbill, two other guys and me. AD&D 1e, bitches!

Not Chainmail, but ... a brief snippet from the Siege of Bodenburg. After setup, just prior to play beginning, about 2 hours ago.


More pics to follow, when they're done uploading.

I feel kinda stupid because I haven't most of you lot in person before and don't know which faces & names to look out for. If you're attending and you see me, grab my attention so I can say hi! (I'm also going to ask grodog to point me at some of you.)

Some old German company. We got a quick lecture on how you could tell the decade they were made by the base color. They're no longer made and apparently pricey and rare on eBay.

All right...here are some more from my wandering around.

Not sure what this game is.

Image

This is some sort of historical warhammer game.

Image

This was a game of "Don't Give Up the Ship!"

Image

This was the final confrontation of an AS&SH game ran by a gentleman named Morgan (I think). It was fun - we undesecrated a temple of Tsothogga (or however you spell that).

Image

Eli's game that Falc mentioned upthread

Image

Paul S's DIY jousting game

Image

A couple of more pictures of the Norman/Viking Chain Mail game mentioned upthread.

Alright guys, I'll be up tomorrow morning, about 9AM local time.

EOTB if you read this, I'll call or text you after my son's basketball game this evening.

We're all still alive and on our way to the Leaden Cathedral. Clearly the pitchers of Spotted Cows are helping.
