@pagan8th or you could try and find a different plumber to solve it permanently.

I saw a really cool demo for a game called “Blood and Bamboo: Bend or Break”
– small skirmish game inspired by ‘Test of Honour’
– think ‘Frostgrave/Stargrave’ but set in Japan with samurai
– campaign is the focus with warbands gaining experience as they survive scenarios
– you activate models based on their speed/initiative rating and roll off if they are the same
– warbands have a leader and subordinate as a minimum, but are completely free in choosing what character types you bring (you can mix samurai with shinobi and monks … )
– there is always a chance to immediately kill the target
– 10 scenarios in the rules
– warbands will have a secret objective to complete within a scenario
– coming to kickstarter in the summer
– choice to buy either the rules or the starterset
– starterset will feature 2 warbands of 6 figures, rules and mdf-terrain from a 3rd party (estimated 80 Euro for the entire set)
– they’re hoping to produce everything locally
– in theory you could run a warband of 16 peasant farmers … it will be bloody if they make use of their numbers in combat )
– plans for expansions already exist, but the kickstarter will focus on getting the rules and starterset in production

They had examples of the mdf-houses, but they didn’t use them on the demo  board.
It looked like a really cool game that is easy to learn.
