Terror on Skull Island Game - AAR Added
« on: 21 December 2020, 01:10:50 PM »
Our Yule Tide game will be played next week and I've just put a teaser up on the Blog!



Welcome to Skull Island located in the most remote parts of the Pacific Ocean...


...an island of dangerous flora...


...and even more dangerous fauna...


...home of Evil Cults...


...and most importantly a land overflowing with great treasures!

Three Expeditions and the crew of the SS Titan will be vying for prestige as they plunge into Skull Island's impenetrable jungle!

Including Dotty Ol' Chaps from Great Britain...


...and Evil Nazi's, who of course everyone hate...


The Full 'Trailer' is on the Blog...

Cheers!

Well we played Terror on Skull Island Game and an entertaining night was had by all!

The 4 Expeditions discovered treasures, amazing flora and fauna, fought for their lives, viewed the Mighty Kong and;

encountered fetid swamps


succumbed to the flora


battled fierce native warriors


discovered a stranded Aviatrix


came face to face with Man-Eating Plants


were assailed by dinosaurs!


and saved a stray actress before she was sacrificed


The winners on the night were the fine English Gentlemen of The Royal Overseas Shooting and Yachting Club but there wasn't much in it!

For the full AAR loaded with lots of pictures and details of the Expedition missions and scenario random events see the Blog Post here…
