Ankh: Gods of Egypt

 Couple weeks ago, became intrigued by this board game with miniatures. having always been fascinated by Ancient Kemet, and with the miniatures looking so awesome, I decided to take the plunge and make the purchase. It has turned out to be what it I hoped for and more. At first I thought I'd just paint the figs, but then I tried out the game. Granted, its not made for solo play, but I wanted to see how the mechanics played out. It was a blast...

The Cole Box comes with the following miniatures, all molded in different colored plastic. (Coded to each of the five Gods, plus the Guardians [lesser known or powerful entities from Kemet/Egypt]) But it didn't take long for me to take a further plunge, and begin to paint each of the figures. And they are beautiful sculptures to say the least. While the Warriors that go with the Gods are for the most part average (although the Isis Warriors are very nice), the Gods and Guardians are excellent, and paint up extremely well. There are supplements for seven additional Gods,  numerous other Guardians, and even upgrade gaming tools. 

So to start the tour, we'll look at the figures that come with the Core Box, the God in the center, flanked by the Warriors...
