I'm afraid, dear reader, that all I have time for this week is to post up some pictures of the last WAB, Chariot Wars game we played and a couple of the ADLG, Art De La Guerre game that was going on on the next table. I messed up and, despite using my phone in place of a camera I didn't take pictures of the last third of the game (basically a senior moment of forgetfulness lol). I'm also suffering the recent effects of having an infected root canal molar pulled and the last thing I want to do is write out a full Bat Rep. i kind of just want to relax and maybe sleep a little this Sunday!
One thing i must remember to do, it to take some pictures of the game with a camera and with my phone. The overall difference in quality is astounding with the camera. The camera, despite being only a Panasonic Lumix DC-FZ82 is a bridge camera, has massive advantages over a phone's lens in that the camera has a massive optical zoom range, optical image stabilization, electronic viewfinder, macro and close focus ability and the ability to take very exposures. also, the phone seems to have the uncanny ability, to use a technical term, "make shit up" if one takes publishing taking very large files into account I always have to reduce my files down to much smaller sizes with the phone).
Anyhooo..... without further ado:
WAB, Chariot Wars, Trojans vs Sea Peoples:
ADLG, Art De La Guerre, Sassanid Persians vs Late Romans:


















Love seeing all those chariots.
ReplyDeleteThanks mate, I loved playing the game. I have to admit, I never really saw myself as a Bronze age/Biblical wargamer, but I really am enjoying this series of games.
DeleteThat's a LOT of nice pictures you're apologize for...haha! I've found that in games, I prefer to use the iPhone camera. It has a great low light capability and reasonably good macro focus. If I were to be taking still images for a rule book or something, I would definitely want a real camera, tripod, lighting -- the whole deal!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I use an Android and the quality suffers for it. On the other hand it's much more useful as a tool for AAR's/Bat Reps than my camera. The camera is way superior to my phone and will be taken to Battleground wargames this weekend (where i pick up some Newline Designs Hittites!).
