Friday 14th December saw the kickoff of one of our quasi-annual Christmas themed games this year hosted and umpired by Rupert.
The Grinch and his Goblin hordes are attacking 'Happy Valley' stealing all the villagers presents and heading to the Santa's Workshop to wreck toy production before Christmas.
The figures are an assortment from Rupert's 28mm Medieval and Fantasy collections and he was using his own Fantasy Rules.

On the side of light & good are Mat & Mike W, whilst arrayed against them, commanding the Goblin Hordes were Mark, Steve, Dave & John.
The forces of Good, under MikeW, did a Stirling job holding up John's Goblin column on the right wing. Whilst on the left of the Good side, Mat was able to deploy forces to contest Mark's Goblins.
In the centre, Dave pushed his Goblin column forwards and they set upon a small village only to be opposed by Good forces rushing up the center of the table from Santa's workshop. Meanwhile Steve is zooming around with a pair of dragons trying to inflict damage and then raising the dead and supplementing the forces of Evil with Skeleton hordes.
At the end of Week #1 there was all to play for...
 |
| Forces of Good on the right battling Skeleton Cavalry and a Dragon, despite heavy losses John's Evil Doers were driven off. |
 |
| One of the Goblin Columns |
 |
| Steve's Dragons help eliminate an Infantry unit that has mauled Mark's Goblin Column on Santa's left |
 |
| A unit of Ogres force the bridge on the extreme left of Sant's front, a bridge that is defended by a small infantry unit. |
 |
| Happy Valley Militia Archers hold the centre |
 |
| The advancing Goblin Battering Ram, to their rear. |
 |
| Santa's left flank is now somewhat devoid of defenders, although in the centre a big force of archers and cavalry are checking enemy movement. |
