We played an epic 4 player game of Fistful of Lead's fantasy version MIght & Melee series. I love the Fistful of Lead ruleset. My plans are for a post-apocalyptic campaign game to bring my childhood dream of playing in a Thundar the Barbarian game to life. Heavy use of felt for the river, indicating the forest and rough terrain areas, the bridges. The table mat is a Cigar Box terrain mat I picked up at the Southern Front miniature convention last weekend. I made my own specially marked card deck with a permanent marker. Placed some books under the game mat for hills. I need to make some foam hills to smooth out the terrain for gameplay. All in all, I think it looks good and worked for us to have a lot of fun.

Oldest Daughter: Orcs. The bloodthirsty trait ended up being her bane as her orcs were in constant hand-to-hand combat

Boy 1: Human adventures. He just spent the game hunting his sister's orcs.

Boy 2: Ogre and kobalds. The ogre tied up my dwarves all game until I finally slew him.

Me: Dwarves and a halfling. The slow movement trait was crippling as I tried so very hard to bypass the ogre, grab the treasure and leave the board.


Although, I won by default as the humans and orcs slaughtered each other and the kobolds wanted in on the action.
