Congo - Forest Tribe

My almost complete forest tribe:

5 warriors; in the background a new terrain of jungle

The chief, a sacred warrior and 5 cannibals.

4 hunters

6 pygmies from wargames Foundry( hunter on the right, for scale).

Congo - Le commencement

    It was planned, I was impatiently awaiting the release of the Congo game; I was an easy going customer with my great personal experience of Africa. So I started doing two factions to attract my gaming partners. Without knowing yet the rules, I choose  the forest tribes, and a white expedition for the opposition with the Northstar kits.

And I'm adding pygmies from Wargames Foundry.

 

Welcome to the jungle

    It's been a while since it was lying on my shelves, so I finally finished the jungle set of Architect of War (now disappeared from the web), I love the shape of the resin trees and it changes from the everlasting palm trees lying around wargames jungle tables. I have some personnal experience of tropical forests and there it seems to me more in the tone. I would try to add some elements of the same looking. Originally I wanted the set to play pulp-style African adventures solo with the rule Larger Than Life (hence the Tarzan and Jane figures), but it will be useful for the forthcoming Congo rule, which I am impatiently awaiting, as well as in second World War.
