Really cool project you have going here.  Very interesting indeed - and to reiterate what others have said, the mammoth trap is really well done.

Thank you Metternich.
hope to be fast with the conversion of the rear side of the trapped mammouth as game marker.
A friend of mine give me some bits from a plastic skeleton mammouth.
i have now to add some meat and others body parts (intestine, guts, etc...) to my mammouth 's rear.

a bloody affair !

Does Paleo diet look like sobah? Or advanced sobah? With only quality and combat stats?

It's does for the activation rules on 1, 2 or 3 dices
Figurines have wounds and animals react on chart like in the Tusk game from Irregular.
Combat are resolve on a "score to do" to wound/kill an animal, depending of the animal species ' resilience.

Could be played as a solo game

Start of the Dead Mammouth Marker :

1st step :
collect the not used parts available from the trapped mammouth

2nd step :
assembling the parts.

3th step :
Add the "missing legs" and start filling the body with styrene bits.




Next step ?

find more hot glue sticks.... No more in stock at home :'(

I will be following this with interest  :D

I have a spare mammoth and since seeing your trapped mammoth, I have been thinking of trying to make something similar.
