I'm not sure who runs these fairly large Napoleonic games with big units, but I recognize the plain green cloth year after year! :-)
Some shots of my frien Jim Mauro's game with To the Strongest!.
Battle of Ain-Jalut 1260 AD
The Battle of Ain-Jalut pitted the Mamluks of Egypt over the invading Mongols of the Ikhanate. The battle halted the westward expansion of the Mongol empire, securing Egypt and the Islamic world.
I know Jim had some of his own tweaks to the TtS! rules for this game, where there was no infantry!
15 mm figures with Sabot bases.
Just who is flanking whom here?
Jim also ran The Battle of La Forbie 1244. with TtS! on Friday: The Battle of La Forbie was fought between a coalition of Crusader forces and allied Muslim troops against the Ayyubid Sultanate of Egypt, reinforced by Khwarezmian mercenaries. This battle is notable for the crushing defeat of the Crusader coalition.. I was too busy Friday to catch any shots of it!
My freind Mark T ran several games with Light Bobs 2nd edition (by Chris Parker, with a major assist by Mark); here he is running The Assault Across Doulcon Woods, Sept 1st 1914: The German invasion proceeds, and French artillery are causing casualties. Lt. Rommel leads 7th Co, 124th Regt, trying to reach an enemy battery to take it out. Can French infantry keep them from crossing the Doulcon Woods? {Yes, THAT Rommel}
Everyone looks peretty engaged here!
The Shadow Syndicate...
the famous (because of Sir Charles Oman) small battle if Maida: July 4, 1806 in Calabria
Hexon terrain!
The Pueblo Revolt 1680
100 years before the American Revolution this lesser-known revolt took place between the Pueblo Indian tribes of New Mexico and the Spanish who settled in the region. This unique mesa-top siege battle takes place on a highly detailed table that has been featured in Wargames Illustrated Magazine.

One of quite a few Carnage and Glory games (note Computer!).
Beautiful troops and table.
More C&G
More C&G
Still more C&G.
The lighting in the new Common Ground (Basement) area is spectacular, and the carpet helps keep down noise. I wanna run my games there next year! :-)
