Some serious archaelogical survey
« on: 29 May 2009, 06:20:38 PM »
Two days ago we started a little .45-adventure game settled in egypt 1921.
As it was my first .45A-pulp game I ligthened up the original rules, so it was more comfortable to play.
I had a lot of fun for we played three runs. The first one was a little...uhm...short because of the dice which casted a little bit unusual; maximal number seemed to be 4 all the time  :-I
The next two runs went well-balanced and ended up in a total massacre :P
all tomb rai...uhm...archaeologists died.....muhahahahar















Next game I willl have finished my Anubis-warriors.... ;D

Yes, amazing playing table.  :-*

And the skeletons are still one of the best boxes ever produced by GW. I love the little buggers.

I love the scaffolding. Very nice.

And yeah, I have about 40 of those plastic skellies lying about. One day I shall finish getting them all prepared and really drive some players crazy!

And I am curious what you did to lighten the rules? I have done somethings when running games as well at conventions.

walls are made with Hirstsarts moulds. They have an Egyptian range, very interesting stuff and you can make want you want with it.

Lovely looking game.
Speaking as an ex-archaeologist I have to say that all looks pretty damn accurate

LOL!! Excavating them, or running away from them? I slept in a room full of  cremation urns still filled with their occupants - very good nights sleep with few ill-effects!

Great looking Hirst Arts setup, and the scaffolding is very cool.  Looks like you had a good night's worth of gaming with some fine miniatures and terrain.
