Jono has been busy...

Readers of the previous article may have noted the amount of equipment on the 'table' - actually a small musicians' stage (which I think accounts for the rather more vicious attack I had to undergo: hayfever). Almost all of it has been due to Jono's industry. I can take credit for the Kiivar foot troops - infantry and artillery crews - and two anti-tank guns in 'factory finish'. The rest is Jono's.

Here's what I mean...

First of all: one of at least 3 infantry guns. This one appears to have been captured by Kiivar forces from Raesharn or Omez enemies earlier in the campaign. That it to say, I borrowed it and one other for the 'Blacklands' battle.
Raesharn Cavalry. Adapted, Jono tells me, from Italeri Mamelukes. Neat eh?
The next three show Raesharn's medium and field artillery. In the Blacklands action, Jono had them all in a single battery. I've recommended that he subdivide them into two: a 3-gun field battery, and a 3-gun medium/heavy. Superb pieces of ordnance...



Raesharn armour. The symbols are Raesharn numerals. Jono allowed they were based upon what he remembered of Mayan numerals. As it transpires they aren't so very similar, but they look plausible and good, all the same. Jono has devoted quite a lot of time, and built up several folios, developing his Sideon IV world.
Here's what I've been doing, aside from building navies. The 'Blacklands' article shows a map of the campaigh theatre. This map has been enlarged with the hope of using it in the same manner as the old Avalon Hill/SPI boardgames - or the 'Civilization' computer game. Here is a section of the map - the Yian Peninsula in southern Kiivar...
The next action will be based closely on the Don Featherstone 'Tank and infantry action on the St James Road'...
