I was away at the weekend at Kirriemuir in Angus for a Gangster
event. Over the two days 12 gamers attended
from the LOGW. All the scenarios were
developed by Peter Nicholson and Colin Jack. The figures were supplied by various members
of the group and Colin and Peter supplied the vast bulk of the terrain.

| Docklands scenario |
On the first day there was a choice of 6 tables with
differing scenarios. Each of the
players played 4 games on a different table.
The scenarios were the docklands, the airport, a city centre, Mexican
border town, Canadian Border and a backwoods moonshining operation

On the Sunday we played a single big game – set in the impressive
fictional city of Nowhereville. There
were 6 gangster gangs and 6 law enforcement teams some of whom turned out to
bigger crooks than the gangsters. Each
player was attempting to make money and achieve 2 secret objectives. Mine were to rob a bank and kill a police commissioner.

It was an enjoyable weekend and the rules adapted from Legends
of the West worked well and were easily picked up by all the players. My thanks to Peter who acted as the hard
working rules umpire.
