GZG ECC 2017 Part 2

March bring one of my favorite conventions, Ground Zero Games East Coast Convention.  Taking place in Owego NY, this is a small con that is my fav.  More focus is on having fun than beating the other guy.  check out the link for more info.

The second game I ran was a Pulp Alley game called "Hitler's Death Ray-inator".

        Somewhere on a mountain top in the German Alps, Hitler has a team of scientists working on a weapon that could tip the scales of the war. Your Mission is to infiltrate the secret base with one of these leagues, Screaming Eagles' Commandos- British commandos; OSS strike team, a US elite squad; The Rocket Patrol, a US Racketeering squad, or the Black Bears, a Russian spec ops squad. They will retrieve scientists and destroy the base OR are you a rooting for the AXIS and have them defend their lair and fire their ultimate weapon. Rules will be taught for this Pulp inspired skirmish game using 28mm scale figures.

I don't have a full AAR, but here are some pictures.  I forgot to take pictures so these are courtesy of Jerry Han and Mark "Indy" Kochte.

GZG ECC 2017 Part 1

March bring one of my favorite conventions, Ground Zero Games East Coast Convention.  Taking place in Owego NY, this is a small con that is my fav.  More focus is on having fun than beating the other guy.  check out the link for more info.

So this year I ran 2 events, the first of which was an Axel's & Alloys game called "I'm your ice cream man".
        In the hot and dusty future, only one this is better than being shiny and chrome, its ice cream. Our local despot (Immortan Jon) awaits the latest shipment of the refreshing treat (just don't ask where they get the milk), rival gangs attempt to hijack the shipment before it reaches his compound. Are you MAD enough to hijack the frozen gold, of are you ready to ride in to Valhalla protecting Immortan Jon's tasty treats?

I don't have a full AAR, but here are some pictures.  I forgot to take pictures so these are courtesy of Jerry Han and Mark "Indy" Kochte.
Here I am, waiting for the players to show

Sooo close, but the war rig couldn't quite make it home. 
At the end of it all everyone had a great time.
