LOST COLOSSUS

About the Project
I have decided to tackle a terrain project based on the Frostgrave spin off Ghost Archipelago. The lost colossus supplement contains a number of scenarios which involve war bands seeking out the shattered parts of a giant statue. They fight over the leg and the hand etc. I wondered how to deal with that before looking around work for body parts. I work in a museum that has some old mannequins in storage as they are no longer in fashion for exhibits. All I could find was a hand so got in touch with a nearby visitor attraction who were very helpful after telling me they had a cellar full of body parts. I helped myself to a female dummy and hacked it up. I have started with the head and after being inspired by the games art work I had it chopped in half and decorated it with geenstuff and bits of card. I remembered to take her eyelashes off first.

Let's play
So today myself and a friend played four games as a mini campaign. I based my crew on an Indian theme using the Rani of jahansi as my heritor carrying her heir in her back and a familiar priestess mini as my spellcasting warden if the storms.
All we had to do is search the area for treasure
This chap was struck by an arrow and with inky one health point remaining was attacked by an anaconda but somehow managed to kill it
My heritor finds the central treasure while my warden summons up some lightning and zaps my rival heritor off the table
My rival pulls back after the loss of their heritor. With three out of five treasures I pull back as does my opponent
Second scenario has a table with bloody totems that effect anyone close and when crew die it attracts random creatures
I made good use of a warden spell that improves the shooting capabilities of nearby archers
My heritor hacks her way through the rival crew
The carnage attracts the local wildlife
Scenario three took place amongst some Dino eggs. Three hatched during the game attacking both sides
Fighting amongst the eggs
The final battle amongst the ruins was the only one that didn't go my way but in the other three I snatched the most treasure. It was a nice afternoon. Next time we hope to play scenarios from the list colossus book so I can get my giant statue scenery on the table
Easter/Dino eggs
As it's Easter I picked up these polystyrene eggs that come with paints for kids to paint for just a pound. They are a bit big but it's s fantasy creature that has laid them. Just don't want to meet them.
Complete Islands
They should work for black seas if I remove the trees. They just need some walkways connecting them
Island chain
Looking for something to do today I decided to make some islands for a scenario in the core rulebook. I'll finish vthem off tomorrow
Forgot about this
I completely forgot about this project. Been distracted as usual. My temple build continues at last with more rubble and foliage followed by the roof with stairs access
