March update - bring all my gaming to one place.


March update

March like many other months has been a time of distraction. I probably burnt myself out with all of the 15mm painting that I have done and turned to other periods and games. This change led me to realise that I should concentrate all of my gaming efforts in one place rather than having more than one blog. What that means is the Cantwara sector will not only focus on my Sci-Fi games, but on all of my games. This should allow be less distracted.  I will also be importing my posts from my imaginations blog.

The first non Sci-Fi post.

A game of Forager

I backed Forager back in 2017 and this was my first game. They are a cracking set of skirmish rules.



Private Burrage sprinted for the forage. A succulent looking pig.



French fire forced Private Swain to take cover.





Burrage was cut down by the aggressive swordsmanship of Sous Lieutenant Eustache de Saint Pierre.



Lieutenant Montague James took careful aim at the Frenchman as he charged at him. The shot caught Saint Pierre by surprise and he couldn't react to James sabre cut.



Wissant's hands shook as he took aim at the approaching officer. His shot was good but it deflect off of James' St David medallion.



Soldat Jean de Fiennes long range shot hit Swain squarely in the forehead taking the veteran soldier out of the action. The loss of Swain was too much for Lieutenant James and he sounded the retreat. The French were victorious.
