Good morning friend haven’t seen you on KZbin for a while hope all is well Miss your battle reports Researching this game I can’t believe there I found my favorite KZbin channel has done exactly what I was looking for thank you for posting these I’m taking a trip out west to Tucson to visit family and every time we go I start thinking about a cowboy game and I might just have to pardon the pun pull the trigger on this good work once again looking forward to whatever you have coming up let us know your OK

[@7thson726]

[@7thson726]

Great battle report - gives a good idea of the game mechanics and flow of play.

[@7thson726]

Thank you, glad you found it helpful 👍

[@johnwatts4755]

Thank you for the report. After watching your earlier video, I ordered the starter set and I'm anxiously waiting for it to arrive.

[@7thson726]

Wicked, which gang did you go with? 👍

[@johnwatts4755]

@@7thson726 I ordered the Outlaws, Desperados, Cowboys, and Lawmen with the rulebook and markers.

[@RalphAstley]

Thanks for this batrep - made me even keener to break open my rules and start playing

[@7thson726]

Do it mate 😁👍

[@vicsminiatures7949]

Nice play through. Dead Mans Hand provides some great games

[@7thson726]

Its always my go to game for quick action and the fact its a western makes it even better 👍

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Very cool game enjoyed this mate

[@7thson726]

Thanks mate, really pleased you liked it 👍

[@GrimAnglo]

Lovely! Can see your editing has improved since the last report too. Pretty much flawless now + the music is a really nice touch

[@7thson726]

Thanks very much 👍 i played about with the music for a while

[@jvcpaints]

Wow. What a great set up! Looks awesome.

[@7thson726]

Thanks mate, you can do alot with terrain for this 👍😁

[@wargameshobby]

Nice game. Love the terrain. 👍

[@7thson726]

Thanks mate 😁

[@BootsontheTable]

[@7thson726]

Don't know what you mean mate lol 😅😉

[@MedievalWargamer]

What a fun game!!Beautiful terrain!!

[@7thson726]

Thanks buddy 👍😁

[@seorwulf1049]

That was quite disconcerting how calmly and cheerfully Hayley stated "I'm going to try and shoot you in the face ... twice"

[@7thson726]

I know, im a bit worried about the next game as she'll be out for revenge 😅

[@granapriego]

This was great mate. You should get a few more gangs in.

[@7thson726]

Cheers 👍 will do, i actually have 2 more but they are both from the Curse of Dead Mans Hand book so have a few more rules. Will definitely be doing some reports with them though 😀

[@granapriego]

I like the look of the Cavalry and the female fighters boxes.

[@MillersMiniatures]

Really good game this. Definitely one to play in an evening. Good to see your wife's up for a game aswell. Mine doesn't like me doing it let alone joining in. Lol.brilliant looking board aswell. Look forward to seeing more. 👍👍

[@7thson726]

Cheers mate, definitely one you can play in an evening. She wants to know when we're doing to so the last scene as she's out for revenge haha 👍😅

[@MillersMiniatures]

@@7thson726 haha looking forward to the deciding game! should have a forfeit. Looser does the dishes or something lol.

[@7thson726]

Haha I'll out that forward, not sure im willing to bet on that though 😅

[@BrushQuill]

[@pauldavies9138]

After watching your how to play video followed by this one I have had to buy the rules and some scenery. Just need to paint up the gangs before high noon!

[@7thson726]

Thanks mate, glad you liked the vids, its still one if my favourite games 👍

[@henrymendes5617]

Great battle report 👍

[@7thson726]

Glad you enjoyed it 😃👍

[@BenSilber]

Just ordered the redux starter, as well as both sets of plastic gunfighters! Can’t wait to get started. Where is your terrain from?

[@7thson726]

All my terrain was from 4Ground, I think it's now available through great escape games 👍

[@leont66wargaming31]

Nice one mate. It’s a cool little game.

[@7thson726]

Cheers mate, it certainly is 😀. The fact its so easy to pick up and play ia a big pro for me

[@BattleBunkerHQ]

Great game Martin, Dead Mans Hand is a good game system 👍

[@7thson726]

Certainly is, cheers mate 👍

[@hamsteronthepaintingtable6465]

Brilliant, really enjoyed this. Definitely going to get these rules 😊

[@7thson726]

Awesome, really glad you enjoyed it, there will be more 👍

[@hamsteronthepaintingtable6465]

Cool, can’t wait sent for rules last night

[@johnbaker9290]

Yea, Haley!!

[@7thson726]

Haha shhhh don't encourage her 🤫😅

[@EnjoiFirstTry]

Just discovered your channel through this video, some great stuff. Love the table you've made for this, would love to know how you did it!

[@7thson726]

Thanks very much. I actually followed this guide www.greatescapegames.co.uk/dmh-hobbybuildingtheset and then added a few bits of my own 👍

[@packersfanforlife7903]

Where are your figures from? I'm looking into the Wild West. Don't know what to get, DMH or Gunfighter's Ball!

[@7thson726]

These are all from Great Escape Games who publish DMH, excellent quality minis 👍

[@Itstheminiatureguy]

Great video really enjoyed it. What size is your board ?

[@7thson726]

Thanks 😁 it's just a small one 2 X 2 ft 👍

[@Itstheminiatureguy]

@@7thson726 thanks Brotha really appreciate you getting back to me. You’ve really inspired me to make a board for deadman’s hand thanks 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@7thson726]

@@Itstheminiatureguy no problem 😁 let me know how it goes

[@bad-people6510]

A better way to resolve ties is probably to rank the suits. Use the bridge order Spades > Hearts > Diamonds > Clubs

[@7thson726]

Not a bad plan, Blood and Plunder uses something similar 👍

[@bad-people6510]

They're using revolvers, which means a jam is kind of impossible. (Jams refer to obstructions in the feed mechanism of auto-loading weapons) What you're more likely to encounter is a dud, either from the primer or the powder itself being inert for whatever reason. In which case you'd just rotate the cylinder to the next round. Conceivably he could also have an empty chamber but it amounts to the same thing, he'd just more likely know about it. It's POSSIBLE for the mechanism of the firearm itself to be broken in some way which prevents it from lining up the next round, but in that case it's just ruined and you're probably not going to be able to use it for the rest of the fight. You'd have to get it disassembled and repaired if not replaced. The most likely scenario, assuming it's single-action, is he just tried to fire it half-cocked which is user error that would prevent it from going off. But again, just try again.

[@7thson726]

You certainly know your stuff, and far more than me 👍🙂 Given some of the things you can do in DMH including falling down drunk mid action or diving across an alley through two upper windows if your looking for gritty realism this may not be the game for you 😉

[@bad-people6510]

@@7thson726 Well, the first thing at least definitely happened.

[@drewbakka5265]

Yo what do you think of the Chicago way?

[@7thson726]

I've only watched it played but it seemed good fun 👍

[@RockinL7BuckingBulls]

How come the green guys never moved?

[@7thson726]

Haha took me a sec to work out what you meant there 👍😀

[@RockinL7BuckingBulls]

Hailey ,she’s our Huckleberry.

[@7thson726]

Haha she's out for revenge next time 😀

[@alexromero742]

Really nice, great videos like always, its a great game but give a try Draculas America, for me is better than this one!

[@7thson726]

Thanks mate, will give it a go, i jave looked at it before,. Aybe a post lockdown present to myself 👍
