Fantasy/Historical/Sci-Fi Battles of the Week, 9 May 2016

If you were looking for modern battle reports/AARs, you're in the wrong place  Go to this link.

Otherwise, business as usual (though it took an extra day to get done)

Game of the Week:  Car Wars at Hot Wheels scale, with an epic arena.  Oh, you had me at hello.  I was raised on Car Wars, among other pursuits, and bought a copy of the re-issued game last year.  If only I had the time to do something on this scale.

Warhammer Fantasy Battle between the Empire and Wood Elves at Xin's place.  A somewhat one-sided affair, but a good-looking one.

Frostgrave at Anatoli's place, with the additional risk of giant worms eating people.  Good times.

English Civil War at the Tas Man Cave.  Impressive models.  I just watched A Field in England, a psychedelic horror-ish film set in the English Civil War.  Not sure what the hell happened, but it was hard not to finish once I started.

Preacher by Day has been busy.  A Pulp Alley convention game, running over Day 1 and Day 2, and a roundup of pics of other games, all gorgeous.

To the Strongest at Hook Island.  As always with these guys, a good-looking game.

Rome versus Carthage from the Band of Wargame Brothers.  Big game, and very cool.
