Ottawa Miniatures Gamers (OMG) Christmas 2020 Game
Below are some picture from a game session held on December 18, 2020 at my local games club the OMG featuring a Christmas themed Warband versus a Warband of Goblins & Orcs with a Dinosaur in a SAGA Age of Magic game. The Christmas figures are a mix of 3D printed Christmas Horrors figures and "War in Christmas Village" figures.

Note
the colour of the mat above under fluorescent light, the OMG game I
played below was played on the same mat in an alternate location (for
Social distancing) with incandescent light making the green in the mat
appear brownish.
My OMG Christmas 2020 game:
Below are a few pictures from the game I played in at OMG using my Wood Elves versus a Horde of Beastmen, Ogres, Centaurs and a Minotaur.
