I like the cut of that man’s jib!
He was a great guy. Super friendly with us, and also with the kids he was gaming with.
Sea battles! Gerry never!
Avast! 🙂
Broadside?
That’s one of the constraints with the games at Historicon, as you can only book a table for a few hours the games need to be quick, easy to pick up and participation in nature. This is the type of game that’s usually very popular at conventions, where the “hardcore grognard” hat is left off and players have fun just throwing the dice (and the kids enjoy it too). The “big” games and refights can’t really happen (as you can’t book a table for the entire event), but perhaps it would be nice if HGMS did do a “mega” game… Read more »
Great idea! Yeah, I mean … a game is not a game until it has lasted at least three hours …
Wow! Now that’s an impressive number of ships!
Table looked great
Sounds great and the ships look fantastic.
There wasn’t a lot of ship MOVEMENT, but I think the idea was mostly a skirmish type game with figures moving around ON the ships.
Pretty cool, never seen this game.
Nice interview
Excellent looking ships!
Remember; to err is human, to aaar is pirate…
er mer gerrrd …
Those ships are staggeringly good. Hats off, sir!
Great guy. If I ever built anything that big and intricate I’d be hesitant to let kids near it. 😀
