Irrational Number Line Games Idea of the Week this week is a towfer. First, a quick tutoial on building some nice modular ruins, then a simple idea to take your favourite combat system and run an Atlantis Sinking game with them!

So grab your water wings and come on …

That is pretty cool! And wet, I suppose.

Regards, TC.

We'll be needing frogmen and frogwomen minis – the kind with diving masks, and air tanks, or rebreathers on them, wearing fins, in swimming poses.

Spearguns and other weapons will probably be useful as well.

Reaper has a couple scuba types in their Chronoscope line.

And a Navy SEAL.

If you want a more classic look, they also have a nifty Capt. Nemo, and a deep sea diver with the giant helmet.

Thanks, all.

Last night I talked to a guy about transitioning younger (10-12) kids into more tabletop and less board gaming. If he did the spraypaint priming himself, this would be a nice intro craft for them. It kind covers all the basic skills. I found it refreshing for me to be able to do a little "drill and repeat" on the basics, too.

As well as Atlantis sinking, the rules would also work for a high mountain ruin crumbling, or an asteroid disintegrating, and maybe even a fire (chemical spill, lava …) engulfing an area.

Pretty cool idea.
