Fake Battle Scene 2- Rebel Ambush

This second battle used fewer figures for the Rebels (representing their losses from the 1st battle?) but they seem to have the upper hand with an ambush ready to take the Loyalists and Yiksossi completely by surprise...

I did two versions of this and another similar shot. This one lets us see the Rebels with the blurred loyalist/Yiksossi force in the background. The other version has the Loyalists in focus with these Rebels as blurry. Both are really cool and I used a similar picture (from the other side of the big head) as the "in game" picture for my entry. Here you can really see the tie-dye job on the Khanumite guy's kilt (this ties in with the Khemru as 'sand-hippies' in WarGods).

Here we get to see Assessor Scarmoth's plan ready to spring shut onto the foreign invaders. He and the Philosopher will frontally assault the Yiksossi while the other two Rebels will attack them from behind.

The three Rebels by the big head are there initially as bait and then to provide supporting long-range fire. Hopefully the Loyalist Army unit won't screw everything up for our heroes....


I really love how this picture shows Assessor Scarmoth patiently waiting for the foreign scum to get right where he wants them to be.....

This battle's outcome is completely unknown. I never bothered to figure out how it would turn out. I'm sure it'll be a victory for the Rebels but I'm not sure if they'll capture the Reiver to use in a future attack against the Loyalists or if it will manage to escape. Let your imagination go to work...
