Six by Six - October

October seems to have been a fairly quiet month for the Challenge. I suspect that a few people have probably let it slide, knowing that the end of the year is nigh and that they're not likely to complete it, and it's now only a few dedicated die-hards attempting to finish it.

Well, I'm in the latter category. I started this month with six games left to play, and I've now got that down to three, having played one fame in each of the three categories I had left to do. Which brings me to my featured game for this month - HOTT, using my new Arthurian army. The photos are terrible, though, so I'll use one from a later post:


What of other people? Well, I can announce that we have a Finisher! Yes, Peter at Grid-Based Wargaming has completed all thirty-six games in his Challenge list, with a report of two games of Galleys & Galleons.


Meanwhile in New Zealand, Nat has been playing DBA.

  1. I have been following along on many of the participants' activities and it has been great fun to watch. Heretical Gaming has really been cranking through the games. He produces at such a feverish pace that I can barely keep up with reading.

  2. Saga is looking like my downfall, but there is still time. Good work on tracking all this, Kaptain.

  3. Congratulations to Peter. Others are quire close. I am in the middle of 2 games from my list, played another two on a fallback list and have started another game sequence, also not on my list. I have no idea if I am going to finish or not! I do wish I had picked King of Tokyo - I got it for my son's 9th birthday in July and the family has played it at least a dozen times since; if only I had taken some photos of some games.
