Last Thursday Night we had our monthly gaming night for the Mass Pikemen Gaming Club. Turnout was light but we were able to have a couple of games. We had a brief card game from 1983 – Flying Buffalo’s “Nuclear War” in honor of our nights game master Jared Burns. Why? Well the game has a B-70 Bomber card which was a semi-prototype of the B-1, which Jared served on in the US Air Force.
The second game was an X-Wing demo game run by Jared.
Our next gaming night is September 28th at the East Brookfield Senior Center hall. We should have a sci-fi skirmish game (retro sci-fi) and more. The pics below tell the tale of the night – overall my daughter Ellen Morin was the night’s big winner!
While Jared set up X-Wing, we broke out this old cold war card game – and all were annihilated – no winners of course!

Early maneuvering
Ellen prepares to destroy her Dad’s (my) X-Wing
My defensive rolls for my X-wing – yes – ALL BLANKS! Blue Ace, we hardly knew ye…
Later Ellen returns the favor by rolling 5 blanks – ensuring the destruction of her TIE defender. I was still out gunned though…
Jared the able GM
The Empire gets on a roll, and I am getting hammered…
This site is where I will discuss stuff that I find interesting and that includes family, friends, golf, gaming, and Boston sports!
