Bayou Wars
Gaming convention in Kenner LA , June 11-13, 2010
The Jackson Gamers were well represented at this annual gaming convention, in the Radisson Hotel in Kenner LA - a suburb of New Orleans,
The Jackson gamers put on seven games at this mid-sized regional gaming convention in Kenner Louisiana. We gamed a wide variety of periods and scales - everything from 25mm Colonials (shown here) to outer spage in the "Honorverse" to Victorian adventurers aloft on their lift-ships, to brutal WWII tank battles!

More photos are available at Jim's gaming blog size: COL. CAMPBELL'S BARRACKS.

Larry Reeves' WWII Tank Battle game. No infantry, no artillery, just tanks! I believe that the gamer in green is John Switzer Jr. Larry Reeves, the game-master is in the yellow cap while Travis Melton is shown on the right. Your web-master (Jay Stribling) was just out of view on the right.

Another image of Larry Reeves' WWII Tank Battle game. Josh Switzer rolls the dice! Larry Reeves used a very simple set of home rules for this German defense, threatened by hordes of American Sherman tanks.
