On June 17, 2018 my club (“La
Piccola Armata”) took part to La Rocca Implacabile IV, an exposition that held
in the castle of Casale Monferrato. It was a local exhibition organized in
cooperation with Casale Comics&Games and another club: I vendemmiatori implacabili
that kindly invited us.
Below some pictures of the Castle of
Monferrato. The castle is a 15th century military construction with a hexagonal
plan and four round towers encircling by a moat
The exhibition was not dedicated to
miniatures but to role play games and ghost players as it is possible to see
below
Our stand was dedicated to Paolo
Montinaro’s wargame expansion: “Garibaldini all’attacco!”
In addition to Castelfidaldo scenario we prepared also another table with some miniatures of different periods to help people to understand our hobby
Paolo published with Chillemi
Editore the first expansion of his game dedicated to Italian independence wars
but I’ll treat this topic in another post as is correct to do considering the
great work (ie to write rules, play tests and so on) that my club mates did to
prepare it.
The scenario prepared by Paolo (and
re create for the exhibition) was Castelfidardo battle. A battle between
Sardinian and Papal troops fought on Sept 18, 1860 that was permitted to new
Italian kingdom to take control of Marches and Umbria.
Below some imagines of the
miniatures and table prepared and painted by my mates.
During the day many persons decided
to play with Paolo’s wargame and, considering that the event was not for
miniature players, I have to point out that Paolo created a very good system
rules
