It Was Work, Honest

First non-solo game of the year. 

Old Longtime friends Les and Paul and I, got together  to try out the latest version of Hearts of Tin (aka A Whiff of Grape) which I'm planning to use at Huzzah!. 

The scenario was improvised, a small force holding the high ground against a larger force, with reinforcements arriving to help the defence. 

Rather than haul my stuff in town, we used Les' 10mm Pendraken 18thC figures, but this time, instead of treating each stand of 10mm figures as a stand and measuring in cm, we treated each 3 stand battalion as a "stand", and measured in inches. 

It worked great! We got a fair number of Les' units out and managed to set up, play till we agreed to call it, and then pack away, in about 4 hours. That was very encouraging as was the feel of the game.

Now, back to adding more 40mm Mamlukes!
