Of Gods and Mortals Zeus versus Hermes

Last week I pottered over to see chum James. Following my game against the Gaming Heir the other week I was up for more OGAM and James has been beavering away at a Greek force for a while. So it was ON! Hermes versus Zeus INA battle for the temple.

Naked Spartans defend the ruins

Look at the size of that!

James has created a Talos, Bronze giant in the style of the Harryhausen one we all know and love from Jason and the Argonauts using a tourist Noel he acquired on Crete.

Zeus to the rescue


The Talos deals with Hermes

In the end a pretty easy victory for Zeus. James has played more OGAM then I recently, so even though his force was new to him he still knew what he was doing far better than I.
Great fun game with splendid company and James' scenery makes it even better.

  1. Wow! That is an impressive looking game! Just looking at that makes me consider collecting for it and the use of the tourist statues was brilliant!
