Blood and Plunder Demonstration Games at Recon 2019

Chris and I travelled over the Pennines to put on a demonstration game of Blood and Plunder at Pudsey, near Leeds. Recon 2019 is run by Wakefield and District Wargamers https://wdwgamers.weebly.com/ and was quite a busy little event...

As per usual, Chris did the rules and demo's and I chatted about the ships (from Firelock Games https://www.firelockgames.com/ ), the figures (Firelock again, usually bought from https://www.gamingfigures.com/ ) and buildings, predominantly 4Ground https://www.4groundpublishing.co.uk/index.php?route=common/28mmhistorical )


The battlefield...


The busy harbour...


The full set up at the top of the stairs. Plenty of room and light...


My Cabalerrio's and Soldado's guard a Spanish building


The Bring and Buy was busy early on...


Chris and passers-by...


Chris engages with the public...


Explaining the mechanics...


The Iron Gate Scenery market stalls really set off the town (and provide some cover) https://www.irongatescenery.co.uk/ 

They were present at Recon, and got some of their camp fires and bedrolls for a diorama I've planned...


One of the new Spanish building from Things from the Basement range at 4Ground. Chris has a few more of these and he's doing a step-by-step guide to building them (hopefully coming early in the New Year). Have to say, they are excellent...
