Title: Anglo-Saxon Settlement
Post by: Onebigriver on August 18, 2022, 12:35:51 PM
Built a 28mm Saxon Village to give my Vikings somewhere to pillage. Great hall and church are built from Paul Davies' plans in WI.

Cheers! Fortunately none of my offspring's teddies are in need of skin grafts, despite my threats.

Great job on those! They look like they’ll be a fun setting for games.

Nice village.

The giant gold duck statues will be an impressive objective ;}

Cheers. Apparently giant gold ducks were a common threat in Anglo-Saxon England, feared more than Viking raids.

Beautifully done and thoughtful of you to use factory-farmed teddy fur instead of natural  :)

Thanks all. Working on some fences right now and some more livestock, and I want to make a palisade for the great hall, so I'll add pictures (sans ducks) soon.
