Here are pics of large-scale wargames in action. This is the real, 54mm thing. If this doesn't inspire people to get into the "One True Scale," I can't imagine what would. Click on images to see them full size.

Buddy Mike was in town a while back, so we busted out my Canadian Rebellions collection to fight a fictional battle called Trois Bouleau (Three Birches) Inn. The French-Canadian Patriotes defend the inn while rebel leaders makes plans inside. |
|
|
|
The British and loyalists have learned of the Patriote gathering and strike out to capture its leaders. They swarm the inn and drive off many of the dissidents, but ultimately fail to capture the escaping rabble rousers. |

| In the summer of 2011, friend of ATKM Steve Miller staged the Battle of Cowpens at Games Day in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. He used the ATKM rules, with our figures supplemented by plastic ones. Steve won Best of Show and Best Painted Army. It's pretty clear why -- he does awesome work! Congrats, Steve! |

A fictional War of 1812 battle played recently between Buddy Mike and I. |
|
|
|
The British got an early advantage by getting a gun in place to pound the advancing Americans. |
|
|
|
But advance the Americans did, to the point that they closed with the British en masse and knocked out the British center. |

| Huge supporter and friend of ATKM, Bob Lehman recently sent pics of his collection of painted 1812 figures thus far, set up on his game table. |
|
|
|
| They're all so good, I couldn't bear to cut any, so here they all are! |
|
|
|
| As you can see, Bob is a master painter and terrain-maker. His games are always spectacles! |
|
|
|
The first game ever played with the ATKM collection of our new War of 1812 line. Mike was the Americans and I (Ken) was the Brits. He whooped me! |

An ATKM game staged by Dick Caldwell and his Maryland crew. Dick paints up some great figures, and has matched our figures up with other manufacturers' plastics for a great looking American force! |

More images from Dick's game. It looks like a good scrap, complete with cavalry sneaking onto the Patriot flank. And look at those LEDs that imitate musket fire! Awesome! |

Bob & Matt Lehman's superb ATKM game hosted at Historicon 2009. Look at that scenery! The guys playing had a blast, testament to the Lehmans' showmanship. |
