Chicken Race on the Arumbaya

Are you alright, Ag6x?

Oh yes, more than fine. The last part was a reference to a study that pointed out that people that live on the west coast had a greater tendency to die of cancer due to bad security and health concerns in the 70's. Nothing more

Or is it some dark and unforseen consequence associated with Sweden's most popular pop group of the era?  If so, I'm worried, they were more popular in Australia than Sweden.

Oh, ok. Well, that's good.
 While on the topic of west-coasterners, the study said nothing about onliner-gland deficiency?  

[Centaur_Seducer]

Not that I'm aware of.
But, for the record:

[Hammers]

Oh, you poor thing... I see that you've been afflicted quite badly. 

[Hammers]

Is this still active Mister Hammers, or has it gone on a back burner for a while?

Oh, there are still things going on, thanks for asking. Since most of the miniatures and terrain is sorted it's  mainly rules and game play related. We are however moving house so you won't see much posted until that's sorted.

This is what I am working on:

* islands and reed beds
* a few sailors
* Paquadorian civilians
* flamingoes
* adventurers
* painting the barge
* events(Tarot deck)
* event templates (whirl pool, submerged logs)
* ship rules
* unit control panels for the ships (speed, accumulative damage...)
* unit cards for crews
* nautical maps for plotting round course
* objective marker (crashed Supermarine Walrus)

C'mon, shift house quicker!!

This was such a brilliant project and lots of us followed it for weeks and months. But then the trail went cold and we were left high and dry. Now that is okay if you are following a series on US Television and the funding is pulled, and the series ends half way through an episode but surely on LAF we are better than that. So Mister Hammers...over to you.

Believe it or not, but it is pottering on but at a much more Latin American pace. As you may have noticed I do not have the same amonut of time to spend on the Hobby right now. Family, work, new house, ageing relatives are all making demands on the time I use to spend on this project.

None of the images appear to be working anymore, and that is sad times indeed.

[Hammers]

They look all right on my screen.

Piccys still work for me

Some civilian river people for the game. They have no real purpose in the game but it would be nice to have a huddle of huts and a trading post/mission on the rivers edge just to add some character.


Here the are, waiting on the dock to hitch a ride with the Cacafuego...



Some individual shots...

Must do something about that gloss, to. That's what comes from not stirring the varnish vigorously enough.

The Sybil shuffles deck and ask you to pull a card. You see The Emperor, number IV. 'The Emperor is the complement to the Empress. He is the Masculine Principle, the Animus and the Patriarch ' declares the sultry gypsy in her husky voice. 'He represents power and authority, and his stern attitude is quite a departure from the sensual beauty of the Empress. As an archetype, it is common to see masculine figures of authority or father figures with long white beards. It suggests that this man has acquired years of wisdom and experience and he is worthy of listening to because he has seen first-hand the consequences of his actions.'

What the Sybil foresaw is that the legendary sailor and adventurer Corto Maltese has attached himself to your crew. You don't know how or when but he is there. He will stay with you and once during the remaining of the game you can use his experience and daring to avoid one event generated by the fate or foe deck.

Beautiful painting!
