Erie Day of Games 2007

20 10 2007

I just rolled back in from Erie, PA. I headed out this morning to test my hand at using the Graeco-Indians in tourney play. Unfortunately, I seemed to be the only person to show for the tourney! After playing the GM, a couple of guys interested in learning the game sat down and the GM and I taught them how to play. I acted as ref. since the GM was a 1.0 player. So there you go, not a whole lot to report. I did walk away with an Essex Late Imperial Roman West army, so that was cool!

Here a couple shots from my game with the GM.

My Graeco’s VS Camillian Roman.

A shot of the final bound. My Jumbos and heavy foot never made it into combat (except to punish some Ps.). His Cav. did a job on my Bow, killing two. I killed one of his Ps. by shooting it and having it recoil into my Pk. flank. My mounted took out his mounted. His general is shown laying where he fell.  I won 3G-2

NOWSCON ‘07 DBA

8 10 2007

Many thanks to Rich, Larry, and Jim who came from Pittsburgh and Columbus respectively to play in our little tourney.

The “Diceman”, not satisfied with plundering Columbus, turned his eyes towards the small enclave of Cleveland DBA players as his next area of conquest (with affable henchman Larry Chaban in tow).

Results:

1) Rich Baier – Southern Chinese Dynasty II/79b. – 67pts.
2) Larry Chaban – Later Carthaginian – 53pts.
3) Jim Kasper – E. Etruscan I/55 – 49pts.
4) Jim Randall – Georgian – 24pts.
5) Carl Scheu IV – Middle Imperial Roman West – 16pts.
6) Carl Scheu III – Middle Imperial Roman East – 9pts.

Thanks again to everyone that played, and congrats to Rich on his glorious victory!


DBx Gaming Fuel!


Rich pointing to a dice roll so rare it had to photographed. I’m not convinced!


Jim Randall’s Georgians vs Larry Chaban’s Carthos.


The two Jims battle it out.


We decided we had to quarantine the Steelers fans…


C3 and C4 engage in a Roman Civil War.


Rich was kind enough to satisfy my desire to lose a pick-up game to him. My Mike’s Models Koryo Koreans looking rather dominating…


Doomed! The Chinese annihilate my left flank after my bowmen shoot the Chinese general off his horse. My spearmen just had no luck against the Chinese blades in the center. Great game; Rich won 4-1G.
