Book IV Prelude Challenge: Category B: Song of an ancient battle

[Gideon]

In the south of Historica, travelling bards known as ashiks is an age-old profession.
The ashiks' songs and stories often have themes of love, wars, or both. Sometimes the stories survive from many centuries or even millenia ago.

At the university of Petraea, scholars invite these custodians of ancient knowledge to capture their stories on parchment.
By letting students reenact the story of a battle as the ashik is singing, this scholar is trying to see through the flamboyant poetry and figure out how the tactics and weapons of old really worked.







I took the opportunity to try out some of the new "Kaliphlin tiles" of which I may or may not have bought...a few...

Love this idea and how you transformed it to bricks! Color-scheme and setting is perfect for Kaliphin, looking forward to future builds when you crack open the kali-tiles storage 🤩

[Simon_S]

Haha I love that you already renamed the tiles . They look great and you put them to such a good use. They reslly make this build beautiful!

[LordDan]

Lovely little segment of architecture! The tiles really do work perfectly for Kaliphlin. The relief map is a great idea and perfectly executed!

[Ben S]

I love how you have achieved the "mediterranean" style! The printed tiles are really well used. The roof and evey detail, it's a really neat build.

[Seagull King of Vaughan]

I see I’m not the only one indulging in the nice new printed tiles…. I’m looking forward to seeing what else can be done with them!

[jtooker]

Awesome concept!  Great use of decorative tiles.  The whole scene is terrific!

[mrcp6d]

Perfect use of those printed tiles!  Love the wargame-as-investigation concept and how you've wrapped that into the story accompanying your build.

[Kai NRG]

Another build using these glorious tiles... I certainly need some!  Really neat idea too, I wish I had learned history in a sandbox while someone sang to me 

[MrLind]

Beautiful. The build has a pleasant balance in composition and color.

[The Stad]

I love the texture you’ve created in the roof, and I hope we get to see more of this architectural styling in your typically grandiose scale.
