The Fvneral games for Senator Dio Sabbathvs

Image
The Prologue And its a packed arena here today in Kourion.  The crowd are enjoying the anticipation of the entertainments on offer as we celebrate the Funereal Games for Senator Dio Sabbathus, sadly passed, and we were treated to an early morning Rainbow in the Dark to mark his passing... Honest Figulus is accepting bets.  You have 50 Denarius and may spread your betting between the bouts.  All bets are at 2:1 double your money.   Honest Figulus won`t let you down.  When the fun stops just bet more! But in the Arena the Fun never stops... Bout 1   Slaves vs Ostrich.  5 rounds to catch and kill. Hilarious fun Bout 2   Slaves vs Rhino.   5 round match to kill the Rhino Bout 3   Slave vs giraffe.  5 rounds catch and kill.  Side-splitting humour. Bout 4   Slaves vs Crocodile vs Lion.  Bets accepted on the Crocodile or the Lion or if you feel lucky the slaves... Bout 5...

The hidden arena

Image
 My flat in Durham isn't very big. With space at a premium the decision to go for 54mm Gladiators is questionable at best.  Over in Paphos I have some great 20mm figures and a printed arena. The answer, go 20mm here too.  I had the same arena as the one on Paphos printed at A2 size for £10, and brought the handful of unused Orion Gladiators back with me to kick things off.   A box of Italeri Gladiators was around a fiver on ebay and I bought the Newline pack of 8 guys for another five pounds.   Total cost £20. I am aware that some of those italeri figures are dubious, but couldn't resist the Quadriga chariot. In the spare bedroom we have an old inherited harbour type  print.  I really dislike it.  On investigation though it has possibilities with a 25mm deep frame.   Pretty hideous.  I'll sell for £20 if anyone is interested?  No?  Into the recess in the back goes a layer of thick brown  paper and atop that,...

The Ludi Romani, Kourion Arena

Image
The Prologue The Arena at Kourion is (literally) out in the Provinces.  September Festival has come around (time moves slowly in the Mediterranean Provinces) Since the Greek population wouldn`t appreciate games dedicated to Jupiter, Kourion will instead honour the Consuls by holding the Festival of Jupiter-Zeus.  The Soldier to be honoured in the Kourion September Festival is former Consul, and lucky general, Quintus Whitmorus, named "The Noblest Roman" by Cato the Gobshite,  Senator Whitmorus will be our Games President, sadly absent at his Villa on Capua.  Pontius Piddlus, Governor, will deputise.   Unlike the traditional Ludus Romani the Greek version alters the format.  No battle of Carthage, no Lake Regulus.  Instead we celebrate the great Greek tradition of victories, now well in the past. Match Schedule Entertainments The traditional Ostrich Chase... The Great Silver Back Gorilla vs two slaves The...
