Its Quiet, too quiet!

Since the repulse of the Oerberg Expedition in August, the southern border of the Kapelle Territory has been uneasy.
All is quiet as the armoured train begins its daily patrol.
The town called Missisjones is an important mining centre in the hills of southern Kapelle, not far from the border with Oerberg. A garrison has been left to hold the town and patrol the border. So far all has been quiet but no one believes that the quiet will last forever.
Meanwhile, in the surrounding hills........

  3. The train looks great. The ploughed fields are they just painted or do they have a textured effect to them? The other photo is filled with promises of excitement to come.

    1. They are just painted. In retrospect I should have painted them on separate bits of cloth so I could move or remove them when they are in an awkward place or inappropriate setting. Still, they aren't hard to hide when needed.

  4. Is this a raid...or is it the advance guard of a more substantial effort?

  5. Have to agree with the Gentlemen above, lovely to see a train and a fine looking game to come. Missisjones, great name - there's definitely a thing going on.
