Some time back, I had a wonderful day of “historical” gaming with my dear friend Daryl. A perfect day filled with good food, homemade mead and high tea! Life does not get any better than that!

All of the figures shown within the photos have all been hand painted by Daryl, which I unreservedly and emphatically declare that he is one of the preeminent figure painters that I am know! I was able to purchase this particular collection of figures not long ago, the money of which Daryl was able to begin work upon a new set of historical figures which I will show here on the blog at some point in the near future.

Just to provide a simple context of the game, I was in charge of the British forces, which was to quell a revolt from a particular troublesome providence. My objective was to put an end to the seditious citizenry and secure the temple which they seized and used as a base of operations to launch attacks upon local garrisons and peaceful denizens.

At the conclusion of the game, my forces were victorious and won the day!

Break in the battle: High Tea Time!

Victory!
