Monument Groupbuild - The Roundabout Monument

 

In 1906, the first roundabout was built in Wadiya, starting a world wide craze and the obvious lie that the British created the first Roundabout in 1907. Its creation was documented in The Wadiyah Times on opening day April 1st 1906, sadly the records were lost when the paper burned down in 1965.

To commemorate the 50th year since its creation, a large monument was erected in the middle of the roundabout in 1966. This did create a sharp increase in donkey related fatalities, something the Department of Tobacco, Donkeys and Firearms strongly denies. 

This was my backup entry after I wrecked the original one. I hope to get that fixed somewhere in the future. Dimensionally it is overly large and I left off most scale specific items on this, so it is also playable for 28mm. I've made a "after the Revolution" copy as well to use after the loss of a game or to recapture it. Just for funsies. I'll post up the other entries as well after the deadline expires.

    1. Thx and do that. Dead easy to make and gives a lot of atmosphere to the table.

  2. Very clever! It would be hard to resist putting some graffiti on the "after" version, but that would ruin the scale agnostic aspect.

    1. I really had to hold back with that, as much as I wanted too! There will be more stuff that is scale specific, don't you worry!
