In preparation for our next game, the siege of the Ronda Colom (Columbus Rotary), I've been working on a scratchbuild center piece of the table: Monument a Colom (Columbus Monument).

The monument sits in the middle of the rotary (or round-about for all of you outside New England), where a handful of military buildings served as the final holdouts of the military coup in the area on July 20, 1936.

The monument was fun to build. I used styrofoam, cardboard, random scraps of plastic and construction debris, clay, and a handful of plastic miniatures, which I converted heavily.

thanks FusilierDan. I've been putting the table together, getting excited for the next game. Still have a couple final buildings to make.
