Party leader Ivan Urbanov suffered casualties but made it to his boat where he successfully loaded the swivel gun and made a hasty exit with two groups of Aleuts. Good fun in what is probably the most obscure period I currently game in! #miniatures #wargaming #tlingit #rebelsandpatriots #nerdlings

After a very hesitant start in which one of the Tlingit warbands wandered off the table after rolling a double one, the locals caught up with the Russians, putting ‘Sniper Gidak’s’ unit to flight and cutting down some Aleutian hunters. #miniatures #wargaming #tlingit #rebelsandpatriots #nerdlings

Tonight’s game using Rebels and Patriots. This scenario was based on a clash in the summer of 1802 where a Russian and Aleut party trapping furs near Sitka, Alaska, was attacked by a large force of Tlingit. #miniatures #wargaming #tlingit #rebelsandpatriots #nerdlings

In the mid 1800s Americans came into #Tlingit country for gold, and in the process sought to occupy and control the land and its people

Important and culturally fundamental traditional gatherings, or potlatches, became almost nonexistent in #Tlingit country during the tuberculosis epidemics of the 1900s.

Health problems among the #Tlingit are not much different than they are with other Alaska Native peoples

Darlene See was chosen to weave the way the tradition has always chosen its weavers: an elder pointed, and said, "She's the one." I photographed her at Hoonah, Alaska, at work on a robe, thread by thread.
