The Fists of Lo Chan Fu - an IHMN AAR

Very nice! Where did the Egyptian scenery come from?

Thanks all! Nice to know the blog is being read and enjoyed. As for the terrain, it was found during an archaeological dig in the G3 club's terrain vault after my desired terrain was already taken! It's source was a mystery to most, although the pyramid and statues appear to be ornaments. That's one of my favourite things about our club, you never know what cool stuff you might unearth.

 Good show that man.
A most elucidating report on the nefarious activities of two villainous companies( it's all subjective of course).
I shall stay tuned to your blog for more information on the mysterious Lo Chan for Inspector Johnson's Casebook.

Good stuff.

Glad to hear that you are maintaining the Chinese dominance over the nefarious Servants of Ra. In our 3 games so far the Black Dragon Tong have proved too strong for the Servants of Ra on every occasion. The extra speed of most of the Black Dragon characters has proved very useful in games in which hand-to-hand combat has dominated - with the use of Poison generating mystic abilities has helped take out even tough enemy characters.

Its also good to see that you finished off the pesky Prof Abihir without too much trouble - he has proved very resilient in our games.

I agree that the Tongs seemed to be a bit better than the Egyptians, but I think that's because they're just better all rounders. They have some pretty good beatsticks in the Yeti and the Dragon Warrior, but the Servants have a couple of absolute kickass characters. Akhenaton himself actually couldn't be touched by the Boxers in the game last night! But I reckon they just need to pick their fights and try to mob the enemy with cheap cultists. Obviously a good scenario design could level the playing field significantly!
