...Somewhere in a Fly-Over State....MONOLITH!!!

Hi all,

Well here is the second of my Photo-Dump posts.  Last time we looked at some of the excellent gaming that happened at Oldhammer in the Jerz...

...this time lets look at some pics from a slightly smaller event.

Just one week after the "Jerz Incident" I found my self on a plane flying across the country...past major Metro areas...


But ending my trip in the middle of some random Fly-Over state whose name I forget...

Here I met up with the rest of the Monolith boys (minus K) and and we quickly sequestered ourselves in the basement for the entire weekend...

...it was Glorious!!!

...it was like I was 14 again...except with much better terrain and completely painted armies!

There were games of Rogue Trader, Warhammer Fantasy 3rd ed, Rogue Ops,....we attempted to capture Ambulls and to free Frogs frozen in Carbonite.  We fought Zombies, Orks, A horde of Chaos...Squat operators...the Emperors finest, Space Pirates, exploding Dogs and all manner of other combatants.

Hell...we even played Heroquest!!!

As I said...

...it was Glorious.

Luckily my compatriots were much better at taking pictures and documenting the battles for future Blogging...to get the real story check out the following Blog posts of those more talented than myself.

Ambull Hunting
Beach Landing RT Style
HeroQuest
Chaos Vs. Dwarfs
Rogue Ops
Rogue Ops 2

I contented myself with just gaming as much as possible and having a great time doing it...

Anyway...Like I did with the Jerz event...here is a photo dump of some of my favorite pics from a really amazing weekend of Oldhammering...

Oldhammer in the Jerz!

Hi all,

I've been crazy busy with life but have also been getting alot of Oldhammering in and finally have a minute to get a new Blog Post out.

The first weekend in November saw the Gathering of Oldhammer types in the Great State of New Jersey for the Oldhammer in the Jerz' event...which basically filled the roll of OHNW2017.  the event was pulled together by Nigel and his local crew and the venue was a nice Masons lodge that had all the comforts of home and plenty of space for gaming.

I had the opportunity to play mostly Rogue Trader games and had a lot of fun doing it....but there were plenty of other games going on as well as much trading and painting and general hobby work and banter.

The following is a dump of photos that showcase some of my favorite moments of the weekend.

 It was a really fun event and it was great to catch up with so many excellent New World Oldhammer Types...Special thanks to Nigel for pulling it all together and to my boy Dustin for all the great Games and good times.

Cheers,

Blue
