My eldest daughter had a quick game of Tusk this afternoon.(http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc31/Maenoferren/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150814_145105_zps1mjn5mzb.jpg) (http://s215.photobucket.com/user/Maenoferren/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150814_145105_zps1mjn5mzb.jpg.html)
The tribe reach the top of the rise and spot the mammoths in the distance. The tribe move onto the plains and somehow spook the mammoth they move further away.

The dogs are sent in a sweeping movement to try and push the mammoths back. Which actually happens.(http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc31/Maenoferren/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150814_151059_zpswtj7jgj4.jpg) (http://s215.photobucket.com/user/Maenoferren/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150814_151059_zpswtj7jgj4.jpg.html) the archers advance and fire at a mammoth causing it to charge. This has two effects, one is that the mammoth separates itself and the second is that the archers run screaming from 3 tons of angry pachyderm. The dogs move in between the lone mammoth and the rest of the herd.

The spearmen rush forward and are sadly stomped into the ground as their stone spears simply annoy the beast.

Ogg takes the risk and rushes forwards, slaying the beast with a mighty blow.

Luckily none of the tribe entered the woods.

Mammoth calves are 6mm mammoths by Irregular, the cave bear ...GW Beorn from the battle of the five armies. Everything else from Pendraken.
That looks fun. I like it!
Looks like great fun was had by all except the spear men and one mammoth ;)
Looks like fun. :)
Cheers - Phil
Lunch is served!

That looks so cool :-bd
Now I feel the need to drag my mammoths out of the half-finished projects' drawer :-[
Cheers!

Yep war wolves minus the goblin riders.
It was a good little game.
