WILLIAMSBURG MUSTER

WILLIAMSBURG 
MUSTER - 2009

Ken Whitehurst debuts 
his TANK GAME. It had
a descriptive name, like 
POLYVERSAL, 
apparently since it, uh, 
since it used stuff from 
all genres of Armored 
Combat War Games. 
It was interesting, and 
played well despite the 
complex Morale Rules.

Personally I would have 
named the game 
POLYNOMIAL, so that 
the math-phobic would 
know into what they
were getting.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report


The Opening Scene, where Green-Tech of Vermont discovers the murder victim, who led him onto huge cache of illegal booze. and for his trouble, gets ambushed by 2 plastic elementals.

Later analysis proved it to be pumpkin schnapps of all things.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report


In an Unrelated  Incident  (tm) some heroes have been on vacation in the deep woods of Tennesee. This group was Arkansas Traveller, WV Mountaineer, Fla. Seminole, and the Volunteer of course. They left their hunting to fight a forest fire and discovered two possessed ATV enthusiasts, trailing flames behind them on their crazy trek. After pummeling the kids unconscious, the spirits left the bodies, and manifested as some Candle-Mass, which is a type of fire elemental. Some CSI work revealed that one boys mother's name was Brigit, and the other mother's name was Bridget. Both boys listened to speed metal rock, and had no friends, not even knowing each other before today.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report

... In yet another strangely Unrelated  Incident  (tm), Green-Tech and Chicago Chief are following the "trail where it takes them" and in southern Illinois, they turn up a girl named Brigid who is manhandling cases of booze out of a gravesite. A Knight of Autumn Gate rises to defend her, and a fight ensues.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report

On the mean streets of Takoma Park, in an Unrelated Incident(tm), the D.C. Champion Represent foils a bank robbery by the Harvestor, a Halloween themed villain, whom it was not known he was active again.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report

Kitty Hawk from North Carolina, Doc Salem from Massachusetts, and Independence-1 from Delaware teamed up out on the Eastern Shore at an abandoned satellite base, but before they got any detective work done at all they (love them natural 18 fumbles)  were ambushed by a squad of the pumpkin headed warriors, the Knights of Autumn Gate. This incident was the first one which may have (preliminarily believed to be) related to others now that the USA-5O team members were actually using their cell-phones to tip each other off !!! 

the things we as GMS have to put up with....

USA 5O Convention After Gotterdammerung

Finally at a farm in western Virginia, all leads from the previous crimes indicated some dirty work was afoot out here in the Meadows of Dan. This led to a gigantic ragarok-style melee. The bad guys consisted of Harvestor, Samhain, and the Autumn Knight himself. Of course he was backed up by a whole platoon of his Gate Knights. 

Champions from the USA included Represent, Doc Salem, Independence-1, Green-Tech, Kitty Hawk, Arkansas Traveller, Chicago Chief, Volunteer and Virtus.

In a rare example of forward thinking by players: across the road in a snipers perch in a grain tower were Mountaineer and Seminole. (visible in the extreme foreground of this photo) Plus Doc Salem had summoned a giant Ant and an Angel to assist.

Note the Winnebago of Doom, which the bad guy's followers (namely Brigit) used to do their dirty work.

the truly mad nature of these criminals (love those silver age morals) becomes evident in this photo. when they get there way, all holidays will be Halloween in practice.

Harvestor, the Magician of Candlemas.
Autumn Knight, Summoner of the Hallows.
Samhain, Master of the Night-fears.
and more KAGs than you can shake a wand at.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report

late in the battle, lots of heroes and villains are down. Harvestor calls in the Boss, the Leige-Lord of Halloween.


oh wait. its an illusion. Only the Chief made his Perception, saving the entire teams bacon. I did get GM props for using "Harvest Colors Cthulhu" as an in-scale miniature.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report

penultimately, when Harvestor finally fell down, the real boss showed up, GRAVE-WYRM, to claim the souls of the trio, sold to him by previous arrangment. Normally, who would stop a daemon lord from turning in a claim chit on something of little value that a scum-bag had pawned? Well he attempted to siphon energy off some unconscious heroes that were laying nearby, so while everyone soliloquized (evil GM: I didnt let players have recoveries unless they made a speech), plus we took a smoke break, as the day had been long since Vermont.  a new, final, fight started.

USA 5O Convention After Action Report

GRAVE-WYRM was the last of a long line of Halloween themed bad guys. he was a 600 point monstrosity with few weaknesses. However Doc Salem had his nemesis power: immunity to draconic powers, and guess where from the "Wyrm" portion of his name derives? Of course Doc wasnt immune to being beaten over the head with a Corvette.


Players included John D, Chuck T, Marcy D, Carol D, Kenny and the Craiginator. GM was Elliott the Insane. If you werent there, you really missed it. I just wish Steve Long had been there.  Mars-Con 2009, Williamsburg VA.
