<p class="MsoNormal">Seeing as we had such a blast with it the last time, I will
be bringing along DUNE.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This game is for between 3 to 6 players with players representing
the houses /factions that fought for dominance of the Spice Planet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We will play the basic game plus the optional rules that give
a lot of flavour to the game. We will keep the combat system of the basic game
as the advanced one caused a lot of confusion last time and didn’t add much to
the game.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As always, let me know if you want to arrange any other
games or have already arranged things between yourselves.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I Look forward to seeing you there.<o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOVW4x76o3iVn3Ghii60L3V5ba-ykTWY2iQzC8KgISOR7Z8O6rDWpO5z9wd6AFR2mYo2OmZ81bYo95BaKGeZglfsjhfSGkNK2fN08sIEEjTBpavsKSvU3sWw1SMTvb_JnkDG9qv6kXc_8T/s1920/WIN_20200911_15_05_03_Pro.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOVW4x76o3iVn3Ghii60L3V5ba-ykTWY2iQzC8KgISOR7Z8O6rDWpO5z9wd6AFR2mYo2OmZ81bYo95BaKGeZglfsjhfSGkNK2fN08sIEEjTBpavsKSvU3sWw1SMTvb_JnkDG9qv6kXc_8T/s320/WIN_20200911_15_05_03_Pro.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8JZI-rp0MFTfe__g1E8nM-guj_T1oS1TdaMPPl97QcDHyC9Mx0_UTiXw6Uwd7xZyK0FgIOPvh3xmvik1VBkTTHmEe74KBiWmYIxfEfTTxYMzwVXAiUpG_lxDx_4xUMJOiNyP8ywc-FfSv/s1920/WIN_20200911_15_05_18_Pro.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8JZI-rp0MFTfe__g1E8nM-guj_T1oS1TdaMPPl97QcDHyC9Mx0_UTiXw6Uwd7xZyK0FgIOPvh3xmvik1VBkTTHmEe74KBiWmYIxfEfTTxYMzwVXAiUpG_lxDx_4xUMJOiNyP8ywc-FfSv/s320/WIN_20200911_15_05_18_Pro.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p>Masterton Maraudershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14158558261732363634noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-95171300969761375.post-23194250100464750082020-09-10T20:32:00.001-07:002020-09-10T20:32:44.186-07:00<p><span style="background-color: #f0f2f5; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">At the club on Sunday Jim and Darren played Bolt Action. </span><span style="background-color: #f0f2f5; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">The result was that the Russian human wave attack washed up on the German lines and frothed briefly before the tide went out. 4-1 to the Germans.</span></p><div class="o9v6fnle cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql ii04i59q" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">Ursula, Craig, Jim, Peter and myself played Circus Maximus.</div><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">My two chariots were wrecked before half a lap was completed and Ursula's followed soon after.

We have managed to have two meetings this month. The first was the second day of the semi-annual Distingushed Flying Cup - Craigs Wings of War friendly tourney. This day started off with two-seaters (all-around fire-arcs!) and finished with some late-war match-ups like Camel vs DR1.<br />
<br />
We had a pretty good turnout (including some younger players and a couple of first-timers) and a lot of fun! Many thanks to Craig and his very impressive collection of tiny planes.<br />

<br />
Craig brought along the board game <i>Maharaja</i> and he, Rex and John played. Jim came along later, gave moral support and said useful things like "oh - I wouldn't have done that". Craig also did admin for the club campaign. Remember, next club meeting we will the next rounds of the campaign.<br />
<br />
Ross brought along two <i>Hordes of the Things</i> armies, Space Marines and Minas Morgal (I think). He, Eric and Winter played.<br />
<br />
Andrew (Patrician Romans - very late, when there was no effective central control in the west) and Vince (Early Byzantine) played 25mm DBMM (Ancients) getting ready for the Hutt Club's Winter Cup next month.<br />

The next campaign season, and then winter, will be at the club meeting on June 26.<br />
<br />
Two tables were used for multi-player campaign games, another was used for a non-campaign HotT game, one table was Napoleonic and there was also an American Civil War boardgame.<br />
<br />
Welcome to Erik who had not been to the club before and Roger visiting from the United States. Others there were James the Elder and James the Younger, Peter, Sam, John, David, Rex, Ross, Craig, Jim, Andrew, Neil, Jonas and Vince. <br />

Sunday saw all of victory, defeat, betrayal and plotting as the mid and late summer periods were played out in the club campaign.<br />
<br />
Ross (Minas Morgul) has become the first casualty, retreating into his citadel when attacked by Craig (Hos Hostigos) and Neil (Bretonnians). The siege was unsuccessful. Ross's relieving army arrived and the besieged force sallied out but all to no avail. Dad and the other veteran prevailed, Ross's armies were defeated and his capital taken.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile Andrew (Tyrannids) and Neil fought a skirmish with their smallest forces. Neil got the better of it but with such small numbers involved the outcome will probably not have a major impact on the campaign.<br />
<br />
Young James (Lizardmen) and Peter (Tomb Kings) were led astray by John (Early Imperial Roman) and attacked their mentor and protector, Vince (Early Byzantine). The armies of Byzantium have converged under the leadership of Belisarius himself and will smite the whippersnappers in autumn. Trust me, I am a Byzantine.<br />
<br />
The other major clash to come in autumn will be both Neil's armies supported by Craig taking on James Senior (Dwarves) and Andrew. One of Neil's armies will start on the table but the other and Craig's force will dice for arrival.<br />
<br />
Rex (Napoleonic British) has been playing a cunning strategy and has allied himself with Neil and Craig. Rex also has an alliance with John. It seems to be paying off and the British web is spreading.<br />
<br />
Intelligence is sparse about what Goblins one and two, Jim and David, are up too but I am sure we will find out soon enough.<br />
<br />
My apologies for the lack of photos from the club meeting. I was unable to attend - it is a complicated story that includes a visit to an emergency vet in Maidstone.<br />

<br />
Craig has organised the campaign using the quick play <i>Hordes of the Things</i> Fantasy rules and a map of Italian city states and villages centered around Rome. The armies are a mixture of historical and Fantasy. It is being played at one club meeting each month.<br />
<br />
The campaign generated lots of noise, four battles, a siege, a fifth battle to be played, and the understanding that of course you can trust me, I am a Byzantine. Peter and and James G learned a lesson about punctuality - they arrived late and had already lost most of their villages. A great northern alliance is forming and morphing each season, while in the South three factions have formed.<br />
<br />
Here are some pix from the meeting, with the list of those in the campaign below.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Craig got off to a flying start in the first game (ho ho), which might become know as the Battle of Six Ones. Neil was outside playing croquet so Craig stepped in using Neil's outnumbered Bretonnians vs Ross' Army of Minas Morgul. Andrew's Tyrannids were scuttling along to arrive on a flank at some time in support of the Bretonnians. Ross decided for immediate, all out attack before Andrew could intervene. Ross says it was his cunning plan - Craig said it was an appalling string of ones on his dice. Whoever you believe, the Tyrannids arrived just in time to see the Bretonnians routed! Andrew then chose to not engage and the Tyrannids marched off the table - brave, brave Sir Robin!</td></tr>

<br />
A good turn out of players on Sunday, most getting themselves organised for the start of Craig's and Jim's Historical/Fantasy campaign using the <i>Hordes of the Things </i>rules. More from Craig on that shortly, including the start day.<br />
<br />
Welcome to Gregory Batchelor who was at the club for the first time and is interested in the campaign.<br />
<br />
The <i>Hordes of the Things</i> games played included:<br />
<br />
Craig (the army of Hos Hostigos from the H.Beam Piper Lord Kalvan of Otherwhen novels) vs Jim (Goblins); Neil (Bretonnians) vs Ross (Minas Morgul) and then Neil vs Andrew (Tyrannids); and James was there sorting through boxes and boxes or Dwarfs to organise his army for the campaign. Peter and Rex were also there getting information they needed to get their armies ready.<br />
<br />
Callum (Space Marines) and James (Orks) played Warhammer 40K.<br />
<br />
Thank you to Craig for the notes, any errors are my misunderstandings. Sorry there are no pictures, on Sunday Mim and I were in Marton looking at a dog.Masterton Maraudershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14158558261732363634noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-95171300969761375.post-85545753519990910112016-02-02T00:26:00.003-08:002016-02-02T00:26:45.437-08:00January 31 meeting<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

You can use your own Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance or Fantasy armies but you do not need to have your own army. Loan armies will be available. Armies do not have to be Italian but should be "Italian-like", an enemy of, or "traditional" fantasy armies (Dwarfs, Elves, Undead, Empire, etc. and you could say Horsemen of Rohan are sort of like Lombards).<br />

The starting idea is that all campaign moves and battles would be at club meetings with minimal book-keeping required. The rules will be simple enough for several campaign moves and two or three battles to be played at a meeting. The battle rules will probably be either <i>DBA 3</i> or <i>Hordes of the Things</i>. Respectively, these are fun, quick-play Ancient and Fantasy rules.<br />

Come to the meeting on January 10 to find out what the campaign will be about, join in the discussion and find out how you could get involved. The meeting will, of course, be an ordinary gaming day too, and you are welcome to bring your armies to play games.<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">The annual Wairarapa Two-Day-Match starts on Saturday November 14 at the Parkvale Deerstalkers' Hall. The second day is Saturday November 28. This is an Ancient and Medieval wargaming tournament. Nineteen wargamers from Palmerston North, Wairarapa, the Hutt Valley, Wainuiomata and Wellington are involved. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">We use Wargames Research Group's DBMM v.2 rules, and play 25mm using 400 army points (AP) unless both players agree to a different AP total. Most games are 400 AP with some 450AP. Players can use more than one army. The tables in the hall are larger than the standard 8'x 6' we usually play on. Players are welcome to use the full width or measure off 8'.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">There is likely to be a story on the More FM local news tomorrow (Friday) morning, in the Times-Age on Saturday, and we hope to have a Times-Age photographer there on Saturday. </span><br />
