This week saw Steve playtesting the rules for his upcoming zombie campaign and a game of 7TV (70′s tv WARGAMING) where our two new members Casey an Dave joined up with Shaun and Jon. Casey was FAR FAR too evil for the ‘boys’ and the game was won when the evil side threw our Australian Ozzie Caks in the shark tank for the third time in the game!
Tuesday saw the first night of competition for our Ludi (gladiator school). While the preparation had all been rather tongue in cheek the action soon got serious out there on the sand.
The Big Gaul goes down after giving Rickanus (Steve's Champion) a big scare!
After getting their gladiators at auction the Ludi Managers were pitted against each other in 9 thrilling matches. Obviously no one told the gladiators or the crowd that on the fringes deaths are supposed to happen less !!!
Find out more at the campaign blog.
If you fancy running a Ludi (we know you all do after watching Spartacus) get in contact with us. The Gladiator campaign will run in the background to our normal club activity!
The day of blood and sand being played out across a number of arenas
What with a brief visit to the nearby establishment while awaiting keys the evenings talk got to around to setting up an on going Gladiator School ‘league’ using the new Red Sand, Blue Sky rules from 2Hour Wargames. Later on in the evening we ran some intro games which were all very amusing …
The actual ‘campaign’ will kick (the sand) off next week with an auction of Gladiators from the ‘Homeland’ to enable the fledgling Britannia ‘Fringe’ league to get off to a good start … Fame,fortune and perhaps a little puerile humour with the names awaits ..
If anyone fancies joining in … the league will run in the background to other club activities, then let us know :)
This Tuesday we are going through the rules we will be using for our up and coming campaign set in the Pacific late in WWII. More details can be found on the Campaign page and our Campaign blog.
Anyone is free to join in … the rules are fast and furious but have a good ‘feel’.
