The Shrine - AAR Pt 1

[Vagabond]

Great scenario, scenery and figures.
Can you tell something aubout the dwellings , did you build them yourselve?
And wich miniatures did you use?

The buildings are all scratch built, the store and hut are Viking buildings, if you search on the LAF for Vagabonds Viking Village I ran a thread covering the building process, basically asking what I should do and having a stab at it. They're all foam core and coffee stirrers with towelling thatch roofs.

The 3 Japanese buildings are foamcore, with paper prints stuck on and teddy bear fur roofs. I bought some paper printed buildings, 6 of them for very little money. The 3 I built have the outside of 3 prints and I  used the outside of the other 3 as the inside of the ones I built. If that makes sense. Then printed wood floring and used that.

The figures are all Perry, but a couple of them are EM4 pre painted figures, I don't think they are available anymore.

Great battle report and a WONDERFUL table! I love all the little details that really bring it to life.
Thanks for sharing!

Cheers Tas the bits and pieces get used all the time,  different periods although not Khmer  and are well wirth the investment in time and effort to create them.

I normally don’t like supernatural elements in my ancient Japanese war games but this narrative was wonderful. The table and figures looked great too (Khmer or not). Looking forward to the next instalment.

Cheers Bowman, I didn't make it clear, I  bought some of these GW wraiths of ebay. I think they are brilliant figures, I've no idea what they are in their universe but they're wraiths in mine. I'm going to use them in European Gothic Horroepr but I wanted to use them and my Japanese figures so it's mix and match I'm afraid. I know that's a bit of an anathema to some but it gave me a fun game.

The ninja has run round the table, been discovered and scampered off.

Hirano and his band of desperados are going underground. Unfortunately I only have a western castle so I'll have to use my inagination a little.
Cheers

Remell sorry I forgot to mention go a little furthe down the board and look for the thread started by Osmosis, he has some lovely looking buildings, most look to be scratch built.

I made my paper and foamboard ones quite quickly just so I  could  create some terrain and play a game, but always intended revisiting and building something better. Osmosis is what I'm aiming to emulate.
Cheers

Huh.  I don't normally check in on this Board, but I'm glad I did.  Quite an entertaining report you did there.  Lovely table and figures, and an absorbing story.

My guess is Ichi and Susomi will make another appearance in your stories...looking forward to it...

Thank you so much. Thanks for the pointers.

I found my paper files they were from Black Ronin but I can't find any reference to them on the internet! However I came across these.

Which look pretty good, my main suggestion with printed paper buildings is that you do a 3d roof to get texture into it.

Cheers

Thank you for posting this. I enjoyed all aspects of the game narrative and table images.
