      Thanks for the kind words, i cannot recommend this game highky enough, in fact we just did a battle report ua-cam.com/video/bQgC6H_NoXM/v-deo.html
      To gwt the texture i painted the board with a sand, plaster and hardware store paint mix. I then used weathering pigments , yelllow, brown and a rusty colour and fixed them using isopropyl. Finally i added some tufts and flowers 😁👍

      Gives you everything. Alternatively just grab the rules and a single gang and split that gang in 2 to tey the rules. The core rules have the rules for lawmen, outlaws, cowboys and desperados. They are all fairly straightforward to use, once you get to grips check out the other gangs from the expansions, especially the Pinkertons 😉

    First off thanks for the video. I wish you got a kick back because as soon as I watched all your DMH content I went nuts getting the books and a few gangs. But now I am looking at picking up some 4Ground kits like you used in this video and I can't find any information on the building base plates. Did the plates come with the kits? I see you mounted them to board and just change up the lay out of the town. This video is the only one I can find where someone picks up a building to show the plates. Can you give some info on how this works? Thank you.

    • @7thson726
      @7thson726  Рік тому +1

      I'm really pleased you enjoyed the videos, I love this game, ticks all the boxes I want in a wargame, added bonus, it's a western 😁👍 the base plates come with the buildings (except the church and a couple of the larger ones, they are listed separately I believe where this is the case). I fixed those in place as you say but not the buildings themselves so I could vary the setup. GEG made a tutorial on making a board and you can see them on it ua-cam.com/video/BtbZxWlRxtI/v-deo.html
      You don't have to stick them down but I've found that it gives a good solid base whe playing the game and bits don't slide about 👍

    • @HappyDeadGuy
      @HappyDeadGuy Рік тому

      @@7thson726 Damn. I am going to Salute in London and was hoping to buy it there. I mean definitely not for £90 anyway, so I will probably have to get everything separately so it doesn’t close as much. My neighbour is a professional sculptor who makes planes and characters of all eras so if I need to borrow something from him, he’ll probably let me. Thanks for ur help.
