Hello Just wanted to share with you my last freak project about creating a set for Dogsled racing in the artic. I took the idea from Buck Surdu with his Dogsled Gaslight.You can see the original post here: TMP link I modified the rules to create a more generic set instead using GASLIGHT base rules which I don't have it. Also the minis are in 15mm instead of 28mm. I created some rules and custom cards for players to generate randomness and troubles to other racers. Miniatures are from different ranges: MY Figures, MJ Figures and Khurassan. The Walruss is Scratchbuild. So here you can see the full set:

Lost Scientists to rescue:
The perils: Inuits, Penguins, Walrus, Polar Bears, Polar Wolves…. and the other racers. ;)
THE NEW IRON WILL!!!!
thanks. Crusher |

You could switch to Antarctica and include some random Lovecraftian race course hazards! |

Wow, those look great! Love the nice, fresh snow on the minis look, and the measurement device and printed cards. Sounds like a fun idea. So, I guess we can assume the natives are not very friendly. |

Very nice looking game. I appreciate all the creativity it took to conceive of the event, and to work out all the ingredients to make it a successful endeavor. Mush! |

Today I played one full race with surprising results as 2 of the 3 sleds were crashed due to a collision at mid race and the racers had to finish running the race. No chance to win against an sled! Overwiew of the race course:

Bravo! That is great. I wanted to attempt this in 28mm..now i may rethink. Who does the sleds? |

I have made a specific ruleset for racing with this dogsleds. If you want I can share it with you. About dogsleds mine are 15mm from MY Miniatures from their Inuit range. I recommend to do it in 15mm because for about 30Eur can have everything for 6 players including penguins, polar bears, inuits, racers, wolves and the baggage to put on top of the sleds. Components are from 3 different manufacturers: MJ figure, MY figures and Khurasan. |

Looks great, good idea for the time of year. Have the penguins flown north for the winter? |
| crusher100 | 23 Dec 2011 8:05 a.m. PST |
