Here are my photos of some of the HAWKs' games at Fall-In 2010. I arrived Friday a little after 6:00PM, with barely enough time to set up my 7:00PM game. Excuse the first three pictures, I had to use my cell-phone for them, as my digital camera was in my luggage.

My 7:00Pm Friday game: "Look, Sarge, It's Raining Paratroopers" using LSNC:WWII rules. This was an eve of D-day scenario with American paratroopers starting the game scattered all over the place. They need to organize and assault three lightly held German towns, before the Germans start getting reinforcements.

Saturday morning I was to be an assistant GM in Eric & Kurt Schlegel's , "Look, Sarge, the Generals are Eating Breakfast" game at 1:00PM using A Union So Tested rules, but wound up commanding Union General Palmer's (his real name!) Division just right of the Union center. This 11 player scenario was a depictions of the Battle of Stones River in Tennessee.
