Happy Sunday Backstagers, CoGs and OTTers!
Last year my gaming group used the Milton Bradley board game ‘Shogun’ to be the campaign system for our Pike and Shot samurai battles. It worked ok for about 5 rounds when the campaign petered out. There was one assassination attempt that was done via Test of honour. I’m told it was both fun and very thematiuc.
Personally I wouldn’t mind try something similar with the War of the Rings board game and GW’s Middle Earth Strategy Game.
Was all the Monty Python stuff delivered attached to a length of creeper so it would be suitable to be carried by two swallows?
If you don’t like Monty Python then watching the episodes re done in German should reinforce your dislike
Back in the day the BBC didn’t really do pilot episodes so the BBC would just give promising writers money and tell them to go and make 6 episodes
Happy Sunday COGz an OTTers 👍😁👍
Nice fuzzy pictures Gerry ?👍
It was Hungarian vs Rumania cold war The worst part of the massive weekend campaign was me balancing on top of a 6 foot step ladder with a VHS camcorder to shoot the aerial recon bits . This recon led to wrong bridges being destroyed etc. All good fun with 30 players and 10 6×4 tables
So every day is Xmas in Gerry world ✨🌎💥✨
They would have a fit if it is shown nowadays Gerry 🤔
You can get the Black Adder series on the movie Hub app @avernos 👍✨👍
And Babylon 5 💥
thankfully I am replete with video tapes of both, but it’s a good shout for the poor unfortunates who don’t have them.
Another great Weekender guys. Thanks for covering the Project. Big +1 for the Bootcamp/Campaign idea, I always enjoyed watching the buildup and weekend coverage. The Warlord Epic Boxes might be a neat way to do it. You could do Waterloo with the historical Battalion at 1:1 if you had about 10 players a side, let the Studio guys be the Prussians. You’ve got Qatre Bras for the Saturday. Even better would be the Pike and Shotte box, even if you split it between two people for cost reasons you still get some nice forces and battles of the time didn’t… Read more »
Fab show guy’s 👍

Hairy Sunday First I read “perfect wargaming companies” and I thought “nobody can do that. impossible! way to many variables!”. Then I read “perfect wargaming campaigns” and I laughed and laughed and I screamed from the top of my lungs: Do not go there! That way only madness lies! NO MORTAL CAN DO THAT! 00:00 But first, coffee. 00:18 Staging the back. 03:00 Gesundheit 05:00 That looks so lovely. Your brother really love you. Well done you. 06:50 Dice of AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! 12:00 let other people touch your RPG? 13:35 Not seen Monty Python? Those people exist?! oO 21:00 ACW! Shaaaay!… Read more »
