This year we offer a visit to a Museum in Walheim. In Walheim, there was a roman castle that was part of the Limes protecting Germania Superior in our area. The museum is based on findings from a roman trading house.

For all those who love beautiful miniatures and terrain a bit more than just pure tournament play:

This is the Fine Arts prize for those who attend with well made armies and/or really beautiful terrain!

And also the 'Blessing of the dice'. Which will go either to the last one or to the best tactician, depending on the contribution of Carlos. Looking closely you can see that I experimented with a rough base coat. After an attack of my cat I had to repair one arm... now the priest has two slightly different arms. The photos do show it more clearly than you would see it in reality, but still: never use a basecoat that you have as a spray only....
