\"Early<\/a>
Early in the battle of La Rothier<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Last weekend, Dave, Chris, and I travelled to War Horse Farm in Gettysburg to run some games for Sam Fuson and folks from his work. \u00a0There were 16 gamers, plus the three GMs, including several kids. \u00a0We ran two morning games and two afternoon games.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the morning, Chris ran his Saving Queen Victoria GASLIGHT game involving British trying rescue the Queen from the Prussians, who are hiding in a ghost town in the Wild West.<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the afternoon, Chris ran his Nijmegen WWII Look, Sarge, No Charts<\/em> game that he will be running at Fall In.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the morning, Dave helped me run a Fate of Battle<\/em> game from our upcoming 1814 Campaign book. \u00a0This was also a play test for Fall In. \u00a0The scenario was really quite good, and the players had an excellent time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the afternoon I ran a multi-sided GASLIGHT undersea game.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Various international factions were competing to get secrets off of the Nautilus, which had recently been discovered. \u00a0The native denizens, the local fauna, and Nemo’s crew had other plans.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The game was a good time and a nice, light change of pace after the more serious, four hour Napoleonic game.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was also the first time I had had a chance to get these underwater figures on the table.<\/p>\n

In the end, I think only Dave and the weird fish were able to accomplish their mission — killing and eating one soldier from each of the five attacking factions.<\/p>\n

It was another successful outing at War Horse Farm. \u00a0Sam says that the folks he works with are getting ready to start buying and painting their own figures.<\/p>\n
