Time Crystals & Chronohounds

Reading the Perilous Dark, I found the scenario “The Dog Days”, and by coincidence have planned a gaming bash on the 29th April, so why not have a very “time” based scenario ?

So I brought some of the Gale Force Nine crystals, here they are for size with a Knight (Foundry/Citadel) for size.

And here are some more with the Chronohounds painted up – definitely not the Hounds of Tindalos ! 😉

Obviously I thought of another jolly wheeze for the scenario which I’m writing up. Decisions on actions have to be completed within a timeframe until a certain item is destroyed, so I thought I’d get some traditional egg timers so each player has 3 minutes in each phase to declare their actions.

The two egg timers arrived in the post today, in a box more than a foot long and nearly as wide and deep, with card wrapping, bubble wrap, for two items less than six inches already enclosed in plastic blister on card stock.

Talk about waste !

The scenario is entitled “Out of Time”, and I mean that both for the scenario and for our environment.
