Historicon 2021: The Mike Lung Gallery #82 Paleo Diet - As Above, So Beneath

Last weekend, intrepid reporter, consultant, and contributor to the blog, Mike Lung took center stage on Friday at Historicon.  

Bookending both sides of the Gnome Joust, Mike took over the main table and ran multiple games of Ganesha Games' Paleo Diet.   

The concept of a stone-age band of hunters stalking prey is simple one, the high-play ability for solo play, and the base requirement of minis makes it a great game.

Then Mike personalizes the figures....

No sloths or squirrels were harmed in these games.   There was a successfully hunted bunny.

Mike has also found his new style penchant, from the world of demonsration games:  the backdrop.  

The hunters were a mix of Gnome-Magnons and Neander-fowls.

Hunting animals is tough enough, but with the introduction of predators, things got desperate real quick.

And why just rely on the bleak winterness of an Ice Age civilization, when the game concepts work everywhere, like... underwater?

Predator fish

Blue fish (one meat), Orange fish (two), and One-eyed catfish (four)

Saturday was also the physical appearance of his Othermann Empyre army.  They weren't needed for the Gnome Wars game, but they are quite formidable.
