Victoriana, a colony under construction *train station added*
« on: August 14, 2011, 09:30:10 AM »
Hi, I've justed posted some pictures of my colony in progress! The colony of Victoriana will be the main British colony in Mbuij Mayi and will extend to a 2,5m x 1,5m table in the coming year. I've decided to record all the progress of the construction on this thread and on my blog. In the future I hope to play a large game on the table in which native wariors must retrieve their stolen idols and the British must defend their colony (a mix between the siege of the legislations, pulp, VSF and darkest africa).



The colony now exists out of completed and uncompleted buildings suchs

Windmill
Four native square huts
One native round hut
Governors house
Fort Edward
Smugglers den
Granary
Two houses in colonial style
Two houses in "medieval" style
Two warehouses
A dock
An inn
A train station
An african fort or boma

Nice work! Exactly the kind of feel I'm aiming for in my own Daftest Africa campaign.

Finally I have managed to finish another building for the colony, a train station called Edward station! I know the fort has the same name but I'm not so familiar with British names!  ;)
