Zulus by Wargames Factory (Part 2)

After having opened the box previously, let's see how I painted them. Don't forget that my main purpose was to be efficient (there are 30 miniatures in the box...).

WHITE UNDERCOAT

GW DARK FLESH

MAGNET and PLASTER (for adding weight to the minis)

BLACK WASH on the flesh ; highlights with DARK FLESH

Tounga's Clan

The clan is strong now with 10 cavemen and women. They have 20+6+4 units of food. There was 30 units of food in the area (AitLL, p.54). There are only 10 (30-20) left for gathering. And of course they have a camp.

Cro Magnon City...

With new people in the clan it's necessary to build new huts...

... and bring food.

Flint and Fur Stories #2 (Looking for Food)

After setting a new camp, Tounga's clan has to look for food. It's the second adventure of my Flint and Fur Campaign played with the Adventures in the Lost Lands rules.


The Encounter Rating is still 3 ; I play a Gathering scenario (AitLL, p.50) as the second scenario of the month. I generated the board by the rule (p.40).

Three PEF are on the board (one per ER point). PEF Resolution is with the Lost World chart (p.44).

Tounga and his clan are arriving by the south edge. Tounga and Rahan are carrying their weapon, not the others (if carrying a weapon you cannot gather or carry any food).

Rahan and Tounga are closing to the PEF.

The PEF is revealed. It's four cavemen (2 hunters and 2 female villagers).

It's time to Meet and Greet (p.55). It's a success. They join the clan. They are fleeing the Enemy too.

After that the four men start to explore the board while the women and children gather food.

20 food units are found. The mission is a success. I roll for improving characters' REP (AitLL, p.56).

A pretty powerful clan...

Flint and Fur stories #1 (A New Home)

Tounga's clan is fleeing their previous camp pillaged by the Enemy. They are looking for a new home. In this first adventure (with the Adventures in the Lost Lands rules) the clan has to explore the map to find a spot with water.

The Encounter Rating is 3 ; so I have to play one scenario per point of ER per month (AitLL, p.53). The first scenario is a Conquer scenario (p.51).

Each character bring only one food unit (since they are fleeing the Enemy…).

THE CLAN

Fortunately there is water on the board. I generated the board by the rule (AitLL, p.40).

Woods (1)	Wooded Hill (2)	Woods (3)
Woods (4) PEF 2	River  / Clear (5)	Wooded Hill (6) PEF 1 & 3
Clear  (7)	Wooded Hill (8)	Woods (9)

THE BOARD

Three PEF are on the board (one per ER point). PEF Resolution is with the Lost World chart (p.44).

Tounga and his clan are arriving by the south west edge.

Quickly a PEF comes into view: medium feeders. The clan is safe for the moment.

An other PEF comes into view: a large feeder.

Since there is no threat Tounga and Rahan are advancing toward the last PEF.

The last PEF was a false alarm. It's time to see the beast closer...

After a few days a new camp is set.

Two happy families...

Since all the board was explored the mission is a success. I roll for improving characters' REP (AitLL, p.56).
