Sculpted by John Winter

Here are the finished figures for the Aridáni Legion of Lady Mríssa, 19th Imperial Medium Infantry. As you can see they meet John's usual high standard of perfection!

Hope you like them!

Cool! What rules are you using with them??

Chef Lackey Rich Fezian14 May 2012 7:02 p.m. PST

Plenty of choices – aside from generic systems, the Tekumel setting's had at least three minis rule sets, from TSR's Legions of the Petal Throne to Qadardalikoi to Missum.

I've used Command and Colors/Battlelore and Crusader Ancients. Also like Rally Round the King (and similar) by 2HW. In all cases we had to fudge the more "Tekumeli" aspects of the games. Working on a set of rules called "Kerdu".

As Rich mentioned, there are older sets of Tekumel-related rules but the style of the game is very "old school" and not to my tastes (personally.) Classical Hack uses similar mechanisms to one of them IIRC but can't recall which.

A BR of any kind would be great just for the colour.

A nice looking crew! Wish I could get my group in to Tekumel!

On the other hand, I always thought that the Tekumel range would make great 'realistic' Atlanteans/Lemurians/Muvians…!

Hello ladies… any of you need a date to this year's "Revelation of the Maid of Beauty?"

I've got re-up my subscription to the Tékumel Club.

Howard:

I do have to ask, have you ever considered using Kickstarter or Indiegogo to help finance Tékumel-related projects?

altfritz15 May 2012 9:46 a.m. PST

I have looked into Kickstarter – there is a slight hiccup in that one needs a US Amazon payment account which makes it hard for Canuckistanis to make it work. Haven't looked at any of the others.

And *technically* the Tekumel Club is intended to do the same thing: cover the costs of the sculpting, etc. In an ideal world the TC memberships would pay for our ongoing sculpting (etc) costs each year. We have not yet achieved that goal yet, but maybe someday…
