yeah, I'm sure I've seen someone doing a Prince of Persia type set up... the setting isn't key, it's a city with watchmen...
You wouldn't happen to remember where you saw that, would you? I have a desert fantasy skirmish project and I'm always on the lookout for inspiration.

Edit: Nevermind, I think I found the thread on the FB group.

How did I miss this thread until now? A superb set up M'Lord.

I have been resisting this game since I saw it advertised pre-release. Had I seen your results before my resolve would have crumbled. But last week Kirstie told me that she had bought into this...result! Of course I already have loads of civilians anyway, until she gets her new town built we may have to set a few games in Venice.

Blimey, you sneaked this topic past me and up to five pages already. Richly deserved - the table looks amazing.

The streets of Ankh Morpork brought to life.  Fabulous work M'Lord.

Glad to hear you are getting into this. Guards of Venice, brilliant idea!

Many thanks to all of you who have commented.

Just managed to finish painting my town clock tower.

Very nice work all around.  The market really sets the scene.

Brilliant. Puts the cherry on the Ankh-Morpork cake.

The only problem I can see with this setup is that I’d never want to take it down! I’d have to have a dedicated table lol (that would slowly expand and take over my house!). Hmmmmmm……tempting

At the moment, this is a dedicated table and it is expanding and taking over my house!   ;)

Thanks all for your very kind comments, cheers!

It was played at my local gaming club recently. I briefly walked past the table, looked very interesting and lots of eye candy but I'm happy to NOT getting another project to do!

I picked the game up at the weekend :D

I've built some civilians. Looking at some of the other figures in the pile, they will fit in with Fireforge Rabble and the Frostgrave Wizards (presumably also the other Frostgrave kits as well). I'm not sure about swapping body parts yet, but I see a lot of medieval civilians in my painting future.
