Prussian Smuggling Operations Foiled!
« on: May 05, 2012, 02:12:01 PM »
Although it has been settled that no trading what is to be done with the devious Martians, it has not stopped the Prussians from establishing a small smuggling station in the midst of nowhere in the Northern African continent..

Danish Adventurer Otto Löwe has discovered the location of the settlement and together with Marshall De Moisoiree of the French Legion he has decided to raid the station and show the Prussians to stick to treaty.

The images from the skirmish speak for themselves.















Otto was badly wounded after taking out a Martian Jaffa but survived and was relocated to a French field hospital. He is already getting better.

The jaffa and the Prussians were not that lucky though. Neither were the Martian hoarding serfs accompanying the Jaffa.

Well I apologise for the sorry state of the adobe buildings.. but they hadn't even dried when I put them on the table. Haha! The interior will of course get an overhaul later.  :)

Zut allors! Those Prussions are always making trouble.

Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

I think they look great. I love interactive terrain that models can hide inside and climb on top of.
I took a closer look at the photos, are the building made out of that cheap beady foam used for packing material?

If that's the case, I'm even more impressed, as that stuff is impossible to work with!

A hot wire cutter helps, but yeah, the stuff is pretty much a pain in the neck. Fragile, too.
