The Master returns. Fabulous stuff as always sir. I will honestly admit I found the account gripping, which is unusual in a game report. Great back story, well told and of course fabulous minis and terrain. You really should think about compiling all of these into a book one day.

One question. Were the Amadoda pixelated to protect their identities or are they doing something rude?

(I see some of the Amadoda have been pixelated to preserve their anonimity)

One question. Were the Amadoda pixelated to protect their identities or are they doing something rude?

Did those Ngoni have banned symbols beneath their pixels?  ;)

Is that an LPL entry hidden in the pixels.

Couldn't get permission from all the Ngoni involved to use their images. One of them was just unavailable, the other one just flat out refused. Wanker. ;)
(Actually, one of the above four quoted statements is true, but I can't remember which one.)





How did you make the fields of grain/wheat/millet ?  Cut sections of door mat?

I think that is what they are made of, but while I love painting figures I'm not really a terrain type of guy. I don't enjoy making it and so usually buy ready-to-use stuff if I can. Got those from ESLO, a German terrain company.





Where are the sandbags and other barricades from, by the way?

The sandbags are from Jens from Pardulon (Zafarelli on the LAF). I think the other barricade stuff is all from Hovels. The stone walls of the garden came from some company I forget the name of that isn't in business anymore.
