KublaCon Fall 2025 has wrapped up and our group had a great weekend full of miniature gaming. This convention only just started last year and while on the smaller side the attendance grew significantly this year. I look forward to seeing this event grow over the coming years.
Big picture dump below. Four games are covered:
1. Epic Hail Caesar - The Battle of the Trebia
2. Epic Pike & Shotte - The Battle of Marston Moor
3. What A Cowboy - Shootout at Sundown On The Streets of El Paso
4. Dark Seas (WW2 Naval) - Second Battle of Cape Spartivento
Epic Hail Caesar
The Battle of the Trebia
Hosted By: Jay White
This was an unscheduled game that I decided to host only in the last few weeks. It was our first game of Epic Hail Caesar and I have to say I really had a great time hosting and playing. We played the Battle of the Trebia scenario from the rulebook on Friday. I hosted a second game on Sunday afternoon as well (just a pitched battle).
I'm looking forward to playing more of this over the holidays.
Epic Pike & Shotte
Battle of Marston Moor
Hosted By: Jay White
The Battle of Marston Moor was the largest battle of the English Civil War (ECW). The Parliamentarians and Scottish Covenant combined to face off against Prince Rupert leading the Royalist army. I had a full compliment of players for the game and the Royalists managed to pull out the win.
This scenario represents the bulk of my Epic P&S collection.
What A Cowboy
Shootout at Sundown On The Streets of El Paso
Hosted By: Dan Kerrick
Dan has been busy preparing to host this game. This was our first game of What A Cowboy and I must say we all had a great time playing in the game. Dan did a great job hosting and guiding us through the rules. I played on the side of the law and it was a close run game - but we lawmen pulled out the win! I have to say, after playing Dead Man's Hand, Fistful of Lead, and now What A Cowboy - my preference by far is What A Cowboy.
Dark Seas WW2 Naval
Second Battle of Cape Spartivento
Hosted By: Roy Scaife
Roy ran a big naval game - British vs Italians. I played one of the Italian squadrons. We always have a great time playing in Roy's naval games. My Italian squadron was sunk to a ship - total disaster but lots of laughs and a good time! This was a British victory despite the losses on both sides - the Italian battleship did some serious damage!
I was busy playing (losing) - so I didn't get but a couple of pictures of this game unfortunately.
Well - that's it for now, happy gaming!
