From PaulO'G: Ruined Temple terrain (50 points)

Ahoy Snow Lord and esteemed fellow challengers - awesome to be back!

One's first entry of any AHPC season is always satisfying, and its great to get one inside the first 24hrs:  day off work is helpful in this regard, as is needing it for a big Christmas Eve battle! Presenting my Ruined Temple.  Its fantasy themed but generically useful. 

Its a MDF kit I got at CanCon a year ago from a small Australian company whose name eludes me.  I find MDF challenging to work with sometimes but am happy with how this came out. I added more colour inside to suggest a former splendour, with coloured tiling etc. I think it worked out ok.

Size wise it is 6 x 9 inches which equals 1.5 non-metric terrain cubes. That means it fits a good block of defenders so Archers can defend it and lurkers hide within and spring from ambush, like this block of 20 Gors from my Bloodsnout Tribe. To that end I will claim this entry for the Hall of Traps.

So I am off the mark for AHPC XI with 1.5 terrain cubes and a Chamber for a total of 50 points.
