You could use it for all sorts of games. It lools just like the watchtowers the Spanish built on the Araucano frontier.

'Exunt Romannes' or something.
Romani ite domum.
Now write it out 100 times.

Looking good Jeremy.

Traditional bad Latin version of course is Romanes Eunt Domus (if you are Monty Python)

How about "Hic Biggus Diccus erat!"?

We were convinced that the Centurion in LoB was modelled on our own Latin teacher, who was also a former PoW of the Japanese (and, in our view, a much more likely cause of their surrender than a mere two atomic bombs).

Really like the tower, Jeremy - looking forward to the palisade.

You've done a brilliant job on that Jeremy. Looking forward to seeing a game report with it in.

Cheers Dave. Hopefully when this madness is over my house purchase will go through and I’ll finally be able to have a dedicated table and play a couple of games with it. At the moment, the dining room has been turned into a WFH office.

Lovely work Jeremy - now just scrawl on the side - "what have the Romans ever done for us?"

either that or Killroyus was hereus

Edit apparently that should be Hic erat Kilroy :thumbs:
