The third table was the Raid on New Providence. Each of the different nationalities had a stronghold to defend until their Treasure Island gold showed up.
Here is the initial set-up and the players reading the cards. In the Gnome Wars each player gets a unit card that has all the statics and special abilities for the unit/nationality.
Eric Jacobson is the gentleman in the green shirt. He is an excellent Gnome Wars player, but an even better GM. My son prefers when Eric is running the game over me. (Nice!)
The different units jockeyed for position and set up their defenses. They had to defend against each other, British Marines, and zombies.
Here the Swiss move up to take out some zombies.....
....and do a nice job.
I don't know who, but someone blew the roof off of the German HQ......
Thank you Jim for the game report and photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat are fantastic looking game and having excellent GMs to facilitate such games.
The story line is great and so are the scenarios.
I wish I was there, but alas photos and report will have to do.
Cheers,

Jim, my friend Steve was the perpetrator who blew up the German customs house. His British Marines in the fort took the policing of the harbor very seriously, so when the returning German treaure hunters became indignant of the chaos in the harbor, Steve plunked a couple of mortar shells into the ships, and a few more into the customs house for good measure. The ironic thng is the German players at the table were just about finished with hashing out a cease fire with the British marines who had entered on the opposite end of the table.
