Looks like a few more things I will need from Khurasan. Very nice work! Jeff |

How many figures does it look like it could hold? Not to actually fit them in, but just to look more or less right. 1? 4? 6? |

It's design is to hold bugs, they are basically piled in by the Pelagic armies without a lot of thought for their comfort. If some die, the others in the pod just eat them. For human-type creature deployment, I'd say a pod could probably hold about three, depending on how much armour and gear they have. but of course what looks right is up to the gamer in the end. |

If we are talking humans in armour, we are talking one comfortably, two if they are close friends and three if you go into squint mode – figuring 1:1 games. I'm planning on using them in various ways as they are very multifunctional bits of kit…..crash pods, stealth insertion or pick up pods, markers to denote a drop zone, drop pods for individual troops 1:1 or for a squad base, drop pods for remotes or even swarms of drones. They can be objective markers, points of interest for RPG characters to investigate/recover merchandise from…… Cheers
