Hey folks from the land of reverse coriolis:
IIRC, someone down there had setup a huge SG2 urban battle with a long running
period and a huge urban board of some complexity of construction. I recall
people mentioning fighting it over many days and having a string to represent
the line of battle and having a governors manse or something as part of the
board. I always wanted to see pics of that battle. Did someone get some? I was
interested to see the huge urban section they built (Owen, that you?) and I
was interested in an AAR. I was told there would be one, and I may have missed
it.
If not, how about it. If so, how about reposting a link or sending me some
pics? Would the people involved please let me know how this came out?
Hi Tom,
Yeah that was Paul O'Grady and myself. We played it using 15mm and a modified
set of rules to enable quicker play. I'll need to dig the images up..the
AAR..all the buildings are safely tucked away still..Paul scratch built them
all using dental plaster!! Fabulous job!
The battle raged for 2 1/2 days and ebbed back and forth although the
ESU wait of numbers told in the end! A valiant stand off by teh NAC defenders
was all for nought!
Back to you soon....

This is almost entirely irrelevant, but it *is* a pretty good picture of a
cityscape....
I'm working on a gallery for my Destroy All Monsters! game, and I have the
first picture up. It's a bit huge, but it's the only one on the page, and I'll
thumbnail it when I get around to adding others.

The cityscape is 1/300ish, and there are some dimly visible Ogre tanks
and missile tanks to give it all scale. I'm going to run a modified DSII game
on this kind of board eventually; either that or a 1/300th scale
skirmish game.
And yeah, my souveniers from my trip to New York came in handy. Somebody
*always* has to climb the Empire State, for some reason....
