This week I have been helping the wife do some gardening. Spread throughout her gardens are garden gnomes. I like teasing her about them, as no one else in the surrounding neighborhoods have gnomes. I jokingly call her "the neighborhood crazy gnome lady". While working under the gaze of the gnomes, I was daydreaming of using different time periods or figures for Mike Lambos' different solitaire games. While trying to ignore the gnomes staring at me, I thought it might be fun to play a game using the Peter Pig gnomes.

That looks like a fun game John! Are the PP gnomes 15mm or smaller?
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun game, even if I lost again. The gnomes are 15mm figures. I believe they were made to be used with Hordes of the Things rules.
