I wonder how feasible a Steel Ball Run themed What a Cowboy campaign would be, supernatural powers and weird weapons and Stands and all? Yes I'm back on my "take a Lardy game and put it in a bizarre alternate setting" bs again ;)

A 28mm cowboy wargame. Two gunfighters exchange shots in front of rocky cliffs.
A 28mm Cowboy wargame. A wagon makes its way through a dusty landscape flanked by rocks and bushes
Excellent game of "What a Cowboy!" with @thatchapscrivs.bsky.social
My gang failed to stop the wagon!

Some (slightly) better pics of my posse. Lovely figures from Great Escape Games, which pics dont do justice to...now to relearn the rules to #whatacowboy
I love the smell of Uhu in the evening, it smells like victory. Mix of Hinchcliffe, Foundry, Great Escape, Copplestone, Perry and 3DBreed all awaiting a break in the shitty English weather to prime. #DeadMansHand #WhatACowboy
Anyone got pics of the Blue Moon Tombstone civilians, painted or not, sold through Old Glory? Really after a lot of nice Frontier folk, Victorian NPCs for an Old West Town..... #DeadMansHand #WhatACowboy
Just listened to day 5 of the Too Fat Lardies Advent calendar. Today was @johnsavage.bsky.social talking about “What a Cowboy”. I always enjoy hearing wargame rules writers talk about the different thought processes that went into how the final rules mechanics turn out.

I'd say we're about 85% there now. Still haven't decided on a name for the gaff. Various bits to fill in and to secure the oddments, paint the railings etc etc. Needs some steps to go up to the faro room. #WhatACowboy #DeadMansHand
Progress on the saloon, a couple of wall pieces are wrong but nowt a bit of wood glue won't fix. #WhatACowboy #DeadMansHand #28mm

Good to see the old gang back together. First bit of painting for ages...love the @greatescapegames.bsky.social minis. #whatacowboy #toofatlardies
Old West project to while away the autumn school holidays. Base coats on the Great Escape Gunfighters before wash and highlighting. Real love-hate relationship with painting. #WhatACowboy More dudes primed and lined up.
First time playing What A Cowboy on Scrivs’s outstanding cinematic terrain! Great fun even if I’ve already lost 2 out of my 3 gunfighters in the first hour 😀 #spreadthelard #miniatures #wargaming #whatacowboy #nerdlings #oldwest #reisswitzpress
An Old West gunfight this weekend at Metropolitan Wargamers in Brooklyn, NY with a big game of What A Cowboy from @toofatlardies.bsky.social

A real pleasure to go to Abingdon Wargames Overlord event today. Loads of great tables, two new rules set being played (had a good game of the forthcoming Ecorcheurs) and a nice welcome from all i spoke to. A few pics - including of a great #whatacowboy table
After 6 weeks struggling with a rather nasty chest infection it's back to the coal face... Well not literally as these Spectre 28mm figures painted by @glenbrookgames.bsky.social are clearly after rare earth metals. Useful virtually anywhere they dig stuff up. #wargame #whatacowboy #spreadthelard
Really pleased with how this chap has come out - decided to try shading rather than washes. The new @greatescapegames.bsky.social mounted cowboys are such lovely figures #spreadthelard #whatacowboy #28mm
Speedpainting for WAC.
Some time for putting down Armypainter Speedpaints on a bunch of cowboys. Colo(u)r choice is still a bit challenging.

Another #WhatACowboy campaign or two ..... #ChainOfCommand2 in particular getting my late war winter Soviets and Germans painted and terrain accumulated. #Midgard .....Early Medieval and Middle-earth armies?
Possibly my favourite scratch build, and certainly the one that took the longest....#coffeestirrers #whatacowboy #spreadthelard
I remember getting mauled by @toofatlardies.bsky.social beavers at Ousing Lard last year 🦫 #WhatACowboy #SpreadTheLard
Wargaming is always a terribly serious business as illustrated by this wild beaver 🦫 attack situation. #WhatACowboy #spreadthelard
Great game of #whatacowboy last night. Opponent captured the local mayor, and so I was able to maintain my 100% loss record. Great fun all round. #spreadthelard
