Lion Rampant AARs from Shed Wars, Dalauppror & Matt's Gaming Page

Lion Rampant written by Daniel Mersey is the newest of the Osprey Publishing set of rules. Mr. Mersey previously published games include Dux Bellorum (Osprey, 2012), Song of Arthur and Merlin (Ganesha Games, 2008), and Glutter of Ravens (Outpost Wargame Services, 1998). Of late, it seems to have taken the wargaming community by storm. BLOG posts, articles and games abound.

Shed Wars is a BLOG I follow. He has been building a table, figures and set for Robin Hood games.

On 27 January, he posted an AAR using Lion Rampant. Here's a sampling of photographs:

and Game Two

Matt's Gaming Page BLOG posted a three part AAR:  Part OnePart Two, and Part Three. Here's selection of Matt's work painted and organized for the games:

Gerry Andersen's UFO

Here are some photographs part of a small UFO set based on the TV series by Gerry Andersen. The inspiration and photographs are from Matakishi's Tea House. I have the same having purchased and also matched the painting and basing styles, not to mention terrain...One of these days I need to find a suitable proxy for the UFO. I've fiddled around playing skirmish games but have not really settled on a good scenario. In my "To-Do" is to try to set up a 7TV scenario.
