I set this up so that I can ramble on about my lead (and plastic) mountain, my endless gaming, miniature, and terrain projects, and other

insights into various games.



You'll find lots of 'pretty pictures', various modeling techniques, and hopefully some inspiration for your own lead pile. You're bound to

find something amongst my games and photos that interests you.



Sit back, open a cold one, and enjoy.

The Walking Dead of Coyote Gulch

I couldn't leave well enough alone, and since our game group likes Wild West and Zombie games, I decided to run a game combining both, but didn't tell the players. Let's just say it made for an interesting game.

The premise was that one group of players were the 'outlaws', stopping in one early morning to rob the bank.  The other group of players were the survivors of the zombie onslaught, holed up in their buildings until an opportunity to escape presented itself.  Welcome the outlaw gang, with a fresh group of horses to leave town on.

It was a carefully planned and well thought out plan to rob the bank...with one little exception.

The first outlaws to enter the bank only found it vacant and blood all over the floor.  When they investigated the moaning from the back room of the bank, and where the safe was, they encountered 2 zombies feeding on the remains of the bank owner and teller.  Needless to say, they didn't wait around and quickly ran out the bank and down the street as fast as they could.  The look on the other outlaw players faces were priceless, because they were not privy to the 'goings-on' inside the bank.  They just took their cue and ran too, faster when more zombies appeared.  Though it got even more confusing as the remaining townies also took to the street to make their escape.  It became a race for the horses.

 Here's what the Town looks like all set up and ready to go.

 The outlaws planned a diversion for the robbery; set fire to the dentist's office.

 Two of the towns-ladies try to make their escape.  This Zombie was leveled with a double barrelled shotgun blast to the head.  

 Some zombies make their way into town through the fields.

 The poor black 'smithy' didn't stand a chance.

 Not only are they fighting the zombies to make it to the horses, but the outlaws are having to fight it out with the townies as well.

A final stand in the middle of the street, outlaws and townies battling zombies.  Unfortunately, all the horses are gone, and there's more zombies on the way.

Shootout at Coyote Gulch

I played in a great game of "Gutshot!" at Hurricon 2010 in Orlando, FL.  I had always wanted to play a wild west game and was instantly hooked. They ran a great game and had great terrain.  It was more fun than I've had in a long time while playing a game. So, of course being the over-achiever that I am, I ordered my copy of Gutshot and bought some 28mm wild west figures.  Tie that in with being the architect, I started building my new wild west town before even running the first game.

Here are some pics from the game that got me hooked at Hurricon 2010:
