“To the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee..."
Captain Ahab’s final words in "Moby Dick"
The Hunt for Moby Dick is a fun game perfect for a late night at the convention. You command a whale boat that tries to manoeuvre close enough to try and harpoon the whale. You might miss. If you harpoon the whale it might drag you along as crew members fall over board or dive and drag your boat under the water. In addition you don't know which way the whale will move or if it will dive under the water or where it will surface. In addition the small boats tend to get in each others way and you may collide and sink about boat. Lastly if you fall over board beware the sharks! |
A meeting engagement between Washington's army and a smaller British Brigade. Based in the historical scenario but a few addition British units added to make the game a little more even. In this game although the British put up a grand fight the more numerous Americans broke there right flank and center for a victory.
The second game was a "what if" the British had reinforced Trenton. The table saw the sane set up as the first game but thus time British reinforcements arrived. If the first game was a American steamroller, this was more Stalingrad with 18th century troops.
