SAG in 2019

We had a pretty good year, though I didn't manage to post as many blog entries for the club as I had planned. Hopefully I'll manage better next year.

We played a great deal of L'Art de la Guerre, Saga, Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game, Frostgrave, Napoleon at War, Test of Honor, Age of Sigmar, Necromunda, and Bataille Empire.  We also tried Cruel Seas and Black Seas.  We even managed to play a little Flames of War and some Team Yankee, as well as true 'old school' games like TSR's Battlesystem and Space: 1889 Soldier's Companion. Our associated club, YHP Bolt Action, played a great deal of Bolt Action and Konflict '47.

Our roleplaying group completed the Saltmarsh saga for AD&D 2nd edition, culminating with  a huge Battlesystem battle over the town of Saltmarsh.  Right after we finished that campaign, Wizards of the Coast published Ghosts of Saltmarsh, which kinda figures.

We finished up the year prepping for a new escalation campaign, for Kings of War 3rd edition, which we are starting in January. We started a L'Art de la Guerre campaign, Ad Imperii, which you will see more of on the blog as each turn results will be shared here.

Hopefully, we'll do better on putting up blog entries this year. I especially want to do some highlight specific club members armies, many of our club members are outstanding painters and this is the perfect place to showcase their work.

Below are some pictures from our 2019 games!
