This year Wessex Wargamers Winchester will be putting on a participation game at Warfare in November, using my collection of 28mm pirates, the club hexon terrain and the assorted dinosaurs from my Saurian Safari collection. A couple of years ago I ran a Saurian Swashbucklers game at the club using an adapted version of the main rules which went down really well, so it's being re-invented as a multiplayer show participation game this year.
As a result, I dropped off my assorted pirates, pirate ships, dinosaurs and terrain at the club yesterday, so that a simplified set of fastplay rules can be worked out by the team. It will probably use the tried and tested mechanics that we've developed over the last few years and I'm hoping to get involved in some of the playtesting after the holidays. I think it will be a lot of fun and, hopefully, we might even win the award for Best Participation Game, which we've had a couple of times in the past.
Dinosaurs and pirates, what's not to like?
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun. Saurians of the Carribean!
