Dead Man's Hand

A month ago [how time does fly!], I had the chance to play a game with Stew and P at P's Palace.  As always, P is a splendid host, and provided everything necessary for a gaming afternoon, down to dinner with three choices of meals and even accommodations for those gluten intolerant. 

This time we played a game new to me called Dead Man's Hand, which as most of you know is a Western gunslinger sort of game, which is also how we played it. P and I had four dastardly fellows each, with the aim of preventing a hanging, and Stew had the eight "good guys" who were going to stop us.  Well, they planned to at least.  What was planned as a hanging became a massacre.

Stew also posted a couple pictures of the game at the end of this post.   Great game, and great fun.  Hopefully Stew finds his terrain and such to expand the options. 

I have dabbled in the Old West before, as documented on this very blog, but not for over a decade.  Cameras have improved tremendously in that time, so here are a few updated photos of my miniatures. 

Otherwise it is all Necromunda around here, several games played, with any bits of hobby time going into various scatter terrain.
