Samurai Castle Corner Wall Sections - WIP

Started on two outer and one inner corner sections of stone walls. May add more corners later, but with this tentative configuration, should work out okay, placed on the corner of a table. Also, didn't want too big of a footprint for them. As the top walls are removable, I may someday make some other types of upper walls - possibly for a Mycenaean fortress.

Here's the start of the construction - styrofoam cut to shape, and covered with spackling. Another reason I decided to stop with just these three sections was due to it getting messy with the styrofoam in the house, and didn't want to continue outside in our typical Pacific NW damp weather.

ADDENDUM:

Started on the gate while waiting for the spackling on the wall corners to dry. This is another piece from Tabletop Terrain. Very nice - and it can open and close using a brass rod inserted into the slots provided on the doors.

On the gaming front, getting ready for our annual big convention, Enfilade, later this month. I'm hosting two RJW skirmish games using TMWWBK. After the con, plan on going all in with Tribal. Just received the book yesterday, and already have gaming aids for a planned Gempei War game. As the game uses cards for activation, movement, and other rules, ordered 6 decks of cards with large numbers/lettering (jumbo index). From the recent Trojan War Tribal game, I found using cards that were too "fancy" made it hard to read not only the numbers but figuring out the suits. Also picked up some suitable honor tokens - Chinese style coins. I've been wanting to get my Gempei War figures back on the table again, and Tribal should be just the ticket for rules.

Anyway, just wanted to update the blog and wish you all the best!
