It's been two years since the Martian invasion was stopped in London. The British Government told the world that it was the germs of Earth that stopped these invaders. This wasn't a lie, but it wasn't entirely the truth. The germs were actually a bio-genetic weapon produced in the Imperial Genetic Laboratories at Porton Down under the auspices of Dr Moreau.
After several attempts on his life, Dr Moreau is now a paranoid, haunted man convinced that the British Government is trying to 'silence him'. He has taken his research and fled to the fractured land of Europe where he's been hiding in a small Dutch town for the last few months, practicing his vivisectionist experiments on the locals.
Prussian spies in the region have identified him and now a small military delegation led by the Stromkult adherent Graf Frederic Ichs has approached Dr Moreau to offer him employment with the Preußische Wissenschaftliche Akademie [Prussian Scientific Academy].
British Intelligence Section 6 have become aware of this meeting and has sent a reinforced infantry section under Captain Mainwaring to apprehend the fugitive and prevent his potential defection to the Prussians.
Although not yet convinced to join the Prussian cause, the arrival of the British has encouraged Moreau to at least go with them to escape Her Majesty's redcoats!
The battle begins at High Noon outside a local watering hole...

Very nice looking table and figures. The game reminded me so much of Mordheim, a favourite game that I played an awful a good few years ago.
Greetings
Sounds fun and looked good. May have to look at this.

Cheers - Phil.
Very nice, Luddite, very nice - particularly like the use of the Killer Kan there - inspired! (ditto re the GW Beastmen)
I'm likely to pick these rules up now - EotD never really quite grabbed me...
Close up of Graf Ichs added to the blog.
Aye Nik, for me one of the big strengths of the rules is that you can basically use figures you've got lying around, scratchbuild anything you like, slap some stats/abilities together for it, point it up and away your go. Excellent.
That was a REALLY enjoyable read Luddite, in fact the whole site is marvellous... I have it saved to favs and will enjoy a good look around in there a bit later on.
Luddite your famous
