Congo at the Club

Our last club night saw Bruce once again bring out his Congo stuff, for another 4 player romp. This time he had larger forces for each of the players & we got to try out the Witch Doctor spells. Alas I did *poof* in a puff of smoke on my 3rd spell.

The centre objective, guarded by some natives


Bruce had some old Airfix Zoo animals which he has painted up, this Giraffe is one of them (though scale wise it would be a baby giraffe)


A good portion of my forces move towards the objective


Some of one of my opponents


Who are approaching another of the Airfix Animals...gazelles!


The Colonial Soldiers make good time towards the objective


At the far end of the board, the Slavers engage some natives


Withering rifle fire has whittled down the objective defenders


My Cannibals with Witch Doctor in tow engage a group of soldiers


After dispatching the soldiers, the cannibals move into the objective area against the leaders group of white men & force them to flee into the open


Another view of the same moment


One group did manage to get the treasure off the table, but they were dogged the whole way & an amazing last minute rush by Tarzan & his troops almost won the day.

I also finished another Black Plague Zombie 



As well as the Mummy from the Servants of RA set



I have the remainder of the Servants of RA figures on the paint table as well as some more Black Plague Zombies & Star Wars Imperial Assault figures.

    1. Thanks Michael, I've enjoyed Congo immensely when Bruce has brought it out, so much so that I went & took the plunge to buy into it myself.
