An encounter at Abu Vril
« on: March 24, 2023, 01:51:28 PM »
Fictional, upper Nile game from the Soudan era.  Rules, the ever wonderful, ‘Sands of Sudan’,  figures Perry.  Painting by the magic brush of ‘Over Open Sights’.  Can’t seem to reduce the pic size, so it will have to be multiple posts

All limitations are self imposed.  Work hard and dream big.

Fantastic looking game, as always, Steve! I echo Malamute on the balloon. Your brush slave has done well by you again despite the constant Kriegspieler abuse about living in a bunker. Still, anything to avoid 192? ??? Sad.

Cool.

Rather half expected to see a regimental surgeon vignette amongst all those nice figures.  Alas.
