Fantastic pics Des.

Great game as well.

Brilliant looking game Des! What rules are you using?

desmondo.bsky.social•14 days ago

Pickett’s Charge. We have heavily amended the Staff officer rules, and tweaked the casualty rules, but kept the rest of the rules. I really enjoy them and think they give a good game which has the ebb and flow of ACW combat.

I am fascinated by this. What game are you using to do this? I am fascinated by this civil war game

These are 28mm figures on a 14ft x 6ft table. The rules are Pickett’s Charge with some homegrown amendments. You can see the first game here. I will post another video tonight.

Do you have plans for a scene of the Little Round Top/Devil's Den area? I think that would be incredible to see on the tabletop. I am currently writing a historical fiction book about the Devil's Den.

Perfect! I love this!

I live in Gettysburg, so I am very familiar with the battle

masterpoding.bsky.social•15 days ago

Thank you, I will watch that!

Where do you get the miniatures? And how do you paint them?
