World War Weekend Two

Periodically I host a "basement convention" and invite friends over for a weekend of gaming. This past November 12-13 was actually the THIRD time I have done that in the last couple of years, but I didn't start calling it World War Weekend until last year.

Here are some photos from the games and displays.

The featured game was 1st Bull Run using Fire and Fury rules in 15mm scale. This is a composite view of the board facing south. Bull Run is to the right, and the Warrenton Turnpike runs east-west across the center of the board. Henry Hill is at bottom center.
