From Barks: Sampans at Douglas' Shallows (58 points)

Sarah's Balloon drops me off over the delta as Ride of the Valkyries crackles from her gramophone.




These 15mm sampans are from Flashpoint Miniatures. They are resin boats with metal crew, and were not my favourite things to assemble. They will help set the scene on the tabletop.


2x 15mm boats ?16 points
6x 15mm crew 12 points
Douglas' Shallows 30 points


Nice little boats, but it sounds like they were a beast to work with.  The end result is really nice and would work for Vietnam, colonials, pulp gaming or James Bond stuff (Man With the Golden Gun anyone?). One never knows what is lurking in those sampans.

 I agree with treating the sampans as vehicles giving you 58 points.  And its' a very worthy entry for my Shallows.
