Thanks Giles
 I've sent you a pm. I'm hoping I might have a terrain solution though that set up does have me thinking about a scenario re-write shifting the action from London to Syldavia! I'll let you know how I get on with sorting it out if that's okay?
Cheers

The Historic,  Esoteric and Religious Artefacts Association (HERAA). These fellows are concerned with the preservation of artefacts but are essentially a cult who dabble in all sorts of shadowy activities.

Left to right :

Mr Osric, Mr Solos, Persivalus King (leader), Professor Inkerman (sidekick) and Mr Anubin.

Rather dark image I'm afraid,  but it proves we did play! Damas stole a late victory for the Corsican Exchange by splitting hus sidekick's shooting dice and dropping the Tong defending the major plot point.

Hi Steve,

I managed to get some shots of the action the other day - hope you like them. That pesky DAMAS stole victory right from under my noise... but HERAA will reform to pursue our goals Mwha ha ha ha!

Thanks Niall. You did indeed do the handwork only to have victory stolen away from you! I had a little mishap with the cobblestone mat so had to improvise with the back of one if Eric the Shed's games mats.
