I have on my drawing board an idea for an 18th century African pulp adventure. I think I will go with 28mm figures for this project since it will be entirely skirmished based action. Of course I will post more once I decide upon the figures, rules and adventure synopsis.

Exciting news!
Great minds think alike: daring exiles from Wittenberg are going oversea in search of adventures, fame and fortune.
Maybe the exemple will spread, perhaps a new dimension will soon be added to the interactions between 'EvE' countries?
18th Century Pulp - excellent!
18th century...? 19th?
I once, long ago, had some such idea for 19th century (see my comment on this thread on EvE). Unfortunately (?) I discovered 'Horse, Foot, Guns', which seemed like a fun idea, so Ruberia and Azuria became Continental rather than Colonial powers... Aye, well...
Cheers,
Ion
The merchants of Wittenberg wish Saxe-Huack all the best for their venture in Africa.
