To test our idea of using Blood and steel for a Wild West game we came up with the idea of a miners strike, being put down by forces hired by the "Company."
Parker Silver Mining Inc has been oppressing the Mexicans and local Native Americans, only to have the very people they were forcing to dig the ore be armed by gunrunners. Mayor Wiley was suspected to be the one that sold repeating rifles to the 'Pache.
As dawn broke over main street the scene is set for a confrontation. Miners, Mexicans and Apache, versus gunslingers, cowboys and Pinkerton's hired thugs.
 |
| Mainstreet. |
 |
| Mayor Wiley, urinating on the town beer supply. |
 |
| El Fatti, the Mexican gang boss demonstrates his dice rolling skills. |
 |
| In a fit of enthusiasm Lord Farthingdale and the European adventurers surge forward to hide in the tumbleweed |
 |
| The 'Pache creep forward building up a strong body count of enemy. |
 |
| And another crises for the Mexicans as Pancho spends a penny. |
 |
| Indio's men have less common sense, as they creep into pistol range and one of the peons stands astride the horse trough in a power pose. |
 |
| The Mexicans face off against the gunmen, Sancho prepares his dynamite |
 |
| And the gunmen are driven back |
 |
| In the centre the "seven" charge forward. McQueen is fanning that gun again! |
 |
| And Sancho really wants to blow up that building. |
 |
| But the Mexicans are driven back in the centre. |
 |
| In the right however the Apache are quite deadly! |
 |
And the end game, it's not definitive but it seems Blood And Steel give an excellent Wild West skirmish game. Probably the start of an enlarged Apache force for me!
Great fun and thanks to our guest Wild West gamers! |
