The scene of the action , on the right the Hyrkanian force arrives and on the left the Hyborean , the Meteor of Doom is the objective (centre of the board) and the game will last eight moves.
But first the 'Favours of the Gods,' dice are rolled , Blue for Hyboria , Red for Hyrkania , the Gods favour Hyborea slightly .
These dice can be used to reroll and add to dice scores during the battle .
The Hyrkanian dice - ready for the battle.
The Hyrkanian force - The Fort Ghori Cavalry nearest the camera with the 2nd Imperial Light Horse in the centre and in the distance the 2nd Imperial Archers .
They are commanded by Gayomar 'First of Men'
The Hyborian Force - The Thurn Infantry left , some Stygian mercanery archers and in distance the 2nd Hyperborean Mounted Archers .
They are commanded by the gallant Count Valenso ! - let battle commence !
The scene is set, looking forward to seeing how this goes, as I said previously I love seeing flats on the table, a real treat.

ReplyDeleteThe scene has been beautifully set Tony - I'm very much looking forward to seeing more
ReplyDeleteBattle being fought at the moment !
DeleteMy education is severely lacking as I've never delved into Hyperboria, but nonetheless I do like your altars with the dice for re-rolls - a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI have been a great fan of the Conan stories by Robert E. Howard for years - not high literature but a graet read .
DeleteA wonderful set-up Tony, everything looks great! The excitement is building, I look forward to your next report!
ReplyDeleteThank you , next instalment coming soon.
