I had the wonderful opportunity to fight three wargames yesterday with a good friend of mine. In total, one was won, one was lost, and one was called a draw due to time restraints. I was introduced to Warhammer 40K and although I enjoyed it, the game doesn't really fit my interests enough for me to buy into it. However, when loaned an army I will happily play. We played two games in 54mm as well. The first was a French and Indian war skirmish that ended with a massacre of British Rangers by a much larger force of Indians. The second was an assault on a destroyed Boer farmhouse by a Zulu raiding party. The game was called short right at the climax. Maybe it will be finished at a later date.
Warhammer 40k
The slaughter I endured. I did manage to knock off a few Shawnee warriors.
The board after the first turn. All games were played on the same wonderful modular terrain boards built by my friend.
My Zulus
The valiant defenders.
The fence would slow my forces down enough to allow the defenders to whittle down my forces. The body pile in the picture below is a testament to the effectiveness of their rifle fire.
I was able to breach the wall but time was called at the end of this turn.
