I ended up doing the sneaker network with a 1 Gig flashdrive. Of course most of what I loaded was business related: records and jewelry photos. I did manage to grab a couple of the gaming photos. First is a photo from our (ancient) history:
This is a very old photo. Terrain and 6 mm Adler ACW figures by Tim the Elder. I took this photo at the crucial moment of the massed Union Infantry charge during a game he hosted using Johnny Reb II.
If I remember right, he was attacking in divisional columns. Or, as he is famously said, "I wonder what would happen if I . . ." The entire Confederate army has just unleashed it's massive volley. The Union attack was completely repulsed with horrific casualities and the game was essentially over.
The only crude photo-manipulation was to add the sky and blur some of the bases and black powder.
From more recently:
"Road Rash!" (also known as "Road Rage!"), Tim the Elder's 25 mm medieval skirmish game that we played on my table. Terrain and figures by TtE. Tim the Younger's hand visible as he deploys his first unit.
This was the most recent game in our continuing series based around his Castle Devin (also known as Chateau de'Vin, depending on when and where we are playing). Yes, after who knows how many years (30 + ?) and innumberable moves Tim the E finally finished his castle! And it is truly magnificent! And fun to play with using his homegrewed DBS (De Bellus Skirmishus) rules.
More photos will definitely follow, and I hope to post the continuing saga of the Devin/de'Vin family on these pages.
Just barely visible, in the lower center right, our the two MegaMini monks that I painted for this game. Closer views to follow ~ once the main system is back on the LAN! 'Til then
'Ta!
