The Day of the Tyrant (One page rules game)


 I have relay enjoyed reading and trying the One page rules, and decided to use some of my collection old and new. the rules have  army lists and i picked whet suited my forces, I was involved in Golgo island and  Neutron York 3K so i wanted to use some  madness from there. and my collection of 3D prints I wanted to use my thunder warriors so sides were set.

The Banana Tyrant, his second in command the Robomonster, along with a horde of Zorgl's and his  creation the giant mutant hamster Gilbertina.
A force Commander, Ritual Sister and  3 squads of Thunder warriors..
3 objective down the center, I always random the deployments and 4 turns
The Tyrants army charged forward, hoping to swamp the Thunder warriors as they outnumbered 
them 4-1

Gilbertina charged forward she tore and ripped into the Thunder warriors there knives only wounding her but her claws and teeth ripped a Thunder warrior to pieces,
As the Zorgl hordes charged for ward blaster fire took its toll they smashed into the superman slaying only one but suffering many more forging them back.
The force commander was attacked his blade wiping out the attackers
More Zorgl's charged into the Thunder warriors ranks
The tyrants death ray striking down another Warrior his second in command taking an objective

The Zorgl's charged again into the Thunder Warriors
Gilbertina relentless in her carnage she pushed the armored fighters back
The Tyrant attacks the few  Remaining warriors in the Center but there Armour  takes out his attacks, he commands Gilbertian to stand over the third objective she reluctantly back;s off as the Thunder warriors pour fire onto her making slight waves into her frame

The Ritual sister slays  two Zorgls then  charges the  huge mutant

  The Thunder warriors  fire power is talking its toll on the mutant hamster

The Zorgls charge again

"Stay your ground victory is ours" the Tyrant shouts he holds all three objectives

The force commander charges and slays a Zorgl holding an objective
In a desperate move the Ritual sister charges the huge mutant her blade cutting deep.

But she fails to slay the monster, victory to the Tyrant... the thunder warriors back off taking there wounded and dead with them. Very fast enjoyable game and the numbers work.

One page rules for me is a great fun easy game, and it works! I would suggest anyone who has large collections or any number of miniatures SF of fantasy to take a look

BOYL 2022 part 2 Saturday 6th August

 

Well day 2 and many more gamer, the tables were filled and  on lookers and guests arrived through the day, i took as many pictures as I could, the games and miniatures were  beyond amazing, scenarios and  battles from many publications. The "we don't run a painting competition" had perhaps the best entry's, I have seen in the last 9 years and judges task was  extremely difficult.... the  gathered picture above shows perhaps a part of the  people who enjoyed the day.

We had some guests make an appearance and  talk and infuse people playing games they  were a part off. I try to remember Jervis, Rick, Trish, Alan and more who names I forget but I think they were pleased to see there products from long ago being used and enjoyed. Also my friends  who company is part of my excellent day, far to many to mention...

As always a huge thank you to Bryan, Diane, Marcus, Lucy,Alicia, Sam and others who provided us with all we could wish for. my dear buddy and co-conspirator Garth who runs the whole thing.

And a special thank you to my dear friends for a wonderful gift they gave me, Jimmy, Ewelina and  Anya, who made my day, it meant very much to me/ (picture at the very end)
