Take a Gondola Ride Around Carnevale
September 26, 2014 by dracs
A particularly exciting new terrain piece has been announced for Carnevale as a pair of Venice's famous gondolas appear in the Kickstarter's array of add-ons.
You can't very well have a game set in Venice without some of the city's famous sepulchral-looking transports. The great thing about including gondolas in the game is that they aren't like any other static piece of terrain, and there are rules to allow characters to scull their way across the Venetian canals, making the table setting all the more dynamic and interactive.
Now while anyone can pilot a gondola, the next stretch goal for the Kickstarter will let the Guild hire the expertise of a professional Gondolier.
The waters of Venice are hardly safe these days, as the new Cult of Dagon Hybrid Officiant shows, so this Gondolier is probably not a push over. If the Kickstarter can reach the £32,000 mark, both of these models will be unlocked, joining the Rashaar and the Guild and no doubt making the canals even more dangerous for my poor nobles.
I am really excited about this news as the game has been needing some dedicated gondola minis for a while now, bringing with them another characterful addition to bring this twisted version of Venice to life on the table.
Do you think you will chip in on this Kickstarter to get a ride in one of these gondolas?

I don’t understand why this KS is growing so slowly. Guys and gals, you have the rules available at the VesperOn site, give it a look… The fluff is stunning and if you can open your mind to new ways of enjoying the miniatures hobby, you’ll appreciate this game a lot because of its games mechanics.
The gondolas are the final touch you need to get the feeling you are in Venice. A real must for most adventures within Carnevale.
