Gutshot town - Foundation

     So the foundation for our old west town has been laid (still looking for a name though).  The buildings have been laid out and now its on to the building of the walls and upper levels.  This should be fun.

Gutshot! First Game.

     So we played our first game of Gutshot and it was a good one.  It had the right amount of table top battling and cinematic imagery to keep everyone interested.

Another cut throat game of Catan Junior with Max being the winner.

Almost finished with these guys from the Dark Vengeance set.

Its been a while and on to new things.

So its almost been a year since my last post.  Family, work, adult responsibilities all get in the way.  I also had a bit of a burn-out on tabletop gaming for a while too so that doesn't help.


But now I'm getting back into it since my seven year old has taken an interest in all kinds of games.


So the new game we've started is "Gutshot" from hawgleg publications, a wild west game with miniatures.

I'm still painting up some figures and building up a wild west town that I got from WorldWorksGames.  The buildings from the Deadfall line, are printed on cardstock and put together, i.e. paper models.  Cheaper and easier than plastic or resin buildings that take up a lot of space.


But we're still playing a lot of X-Wing and other tabletop games so expect more posts.  I'll be trying to put them up every week, especially now that summer is upon us and the kiddies are out of school.

Happy Halloween!

Go forth and conquer (for candy)!

Wednesday Board Game Night

So I had the oppurtunity to bring out one of my old board games (and a favorite) to play with my usual opponent.



The master tactician at work.

We had a lot of fun and Iggy is learning not only how to play wargames, but also good sportsmanship.  We're both having fun while learning along the way.
