Landings+Encampment On Isla Incognita
« on: 03 November 2014, 01:57:26 PM »
It's 1938 and Herr von Stiehl's expedition to the South Pacific tropical isle of Isla Incognita is ashore. This was the first of three games using Astounding Tales by Howard Whitehouse.
* * * * *
The story advances by briefly captioned photos and is told as a story - not an After Action Report. My hope is that it is evolving into a new form of entertainment in our hobby here:

* * * * *
You will see common and amazing varieties of prodigious vegetation, indigenous inhabitants, dangers ashore and afloat, day and night scenes, snow, (snow?) and panoramas - all blended within a growing awareness that this mysterious isle is not a tropical paradise. Don't miss a single photo in Chapter 4: Landfall in 15,000 Miles From The Past.

At the end under the heading Closing Remarks, is a list of some of the miniatures found in the story.

Respectfully presented for your reading and visual entertainment,
