Yep, STEAM. I’ve already got 12 windows open. Don’t need 21.
Something to watch while we wait anyway...
Well, apart from information having watched the event, "the grand slaughter" could be read either way. ;)
This was certainly a tutorial milk run. At least one more point should have spawned-in by probability, maybe two.
Also appreciate feedback/thoughts for what people would like to see in the "fights".
Don't worry Tuna, I was confused also at times. I'm not sure I was following all of the dice rolls.

For the record, Doug shot one whole dude. Leader as it turned out.
actual fighting would be cool :P
I think one of the challenges in terms of seeing "actual fighting" is that we'll have to pick games that are pretty much set piece battles, and then just do the standard wargamer thing of crashing groups of toy soldiers together if we're going to stream. If you want to do learning games, or games that involve more maneuver, you're going to have to record and edit them. Those things are interesting for the participants, not so interesting for people watching.
I dunno. Three hours is three hours and, watching the Little Wars TV guys — my models as you know — all of their games have been of the sort you describe and most seem to take at least 3-4 hours. No, there’s no easy replacement for someone with the time and talent to edit the video down if you’re hoping to catch a casual look-in. It’s a hard dollar; my wife’ll tell you so.
They want to see one of those Scourge of War games we had on with Asid's group?

Figuring out a way to simulcast a multiplayer SoW match would be pretty great!

And this leads to my reason for giving up on AARs. I want to play fun games, then think I should share my fun with others only for the fun to turn to work and then neither playing or AARing get done... :(
Lots of on lookers asking for this and that but not actually stepping in to help , let alone play with us.
I love that fact that you have started a game "club" where we can play with our toys that normally sit on shelves and look pretty. When it starts to be work as well...
Not that I've been tasked with doing anything other than coming to play but I don't want you to burn out on this grand idea and we lose our driving force.
But that's just me.... :biggrin:
I would be thrilled to step in and play, but I'm watching from the concessions desk at an indoor soccer facility where I'm moonlighting on Saturday nights and not able to dedicate the time to playing. I can watch b/c that doesn't require constant attention. But I can't play, because that does.

Brant, my comment was not leveled at you..... buuuuuut maybe you could help by making a shorted edited version and thus off loading that from Jim... can't be much different than editing a pod cast can it? (He says knowing nothing about editing anything... :whistle: )

Zulu leg-cramp was a serious problem in those days.
Not as bad as the dreaded 'Rangoon Crouch' caused by eating too many curried eggs!
I'll need a call on how many curried eggs is too many?

I can't say I know as they make great viewing, but I've really enjoyed the CA games.
British are having the better time of it, pace the carbineers getting swarmed by Zulu.
I'm not sure if I will be around this Saturday, my son is coming home, and I think he ordered some 'starter' packs of Magic the Gathering, he wants to force feed/teach me this game. We'll see, I'll let you know tomorrow. Maybe he means to 'teach me' in the afternoon and go out with his friends tomorrow night. ;)
Some day I'll get around to joining you ne'er-do-wells.
Weekends have been busy lately.
