It was a poorer quarter of Venice, but the roofs still held as Caterina da Padua leapt from flat to sloped roof, almost stumbling. The pursuing Lords of the Night began to fall behind as they were less willing to slip and fall into one of the small canals. She grinned as she heard a scream and a splash. Now, it was time to plan her revenge on whoever had slipped her name into one of the many Lion’s Mouths that were spread across the city. Venice: Back Alleys is NOT the Venice of merchants princes or romantic gondoliers. Its building represent the slums of the Serene Republic. Don’t think of double-dealing Doges or romantic gondoliers. Instead, smell the stench of backwater canals, dodge the bodies left by thugs or disease. The 4x6x6" buildings come in five color schemes with appliques of windows, doors, and storefronts with two different style roofs. They collapse for easier storage. Also included is a wooden bridge, a well head, canals, and ground. Remember, every Finger and Toe model comes with SMOOSH ASSURANCE: if ya’ll smoosh your Venice: Back Alleys, a new one waits your summons from hard drive and printer. Venice: Back Alleys is available from www.wargamevault.com for $5.00. Get it here: www.wargamevault.com/product/328101/Venice-Back-Alleys?src=newest

Very nice addition to La Serenissima. One thing I have been having a very hard time with is capturing the look of the pavers. Very well done all around

One of my fondest memories of Venice (we went in a February for our anniversary) was watching the elegant women in their long fur coats, a cigarette in one hand and cell phone in the other slip on the icy pavers in Saint Mark's Square. Some areas have decorative pavers, some functional ones, and other have cobblestones.

Icy is a bit different than wet. It was off and on wet while we were there. The volcanic rock was a lot less slick than it looked
