Kaiser's Revenge - Morocco 25 March 1903
This is a follow up game based on the results of last game played in this scenario series.....
Kaiser's Revenge
The recovery of
Kaiser William II's favorite nephew by the Bashaw's Black Guard has
given the German government a black eye. Calls for revenge and invasion
by Hun politicians has been quelled by the formation of an expedition to
recover the envoy manned by Aryan troops alone. The failure of the last
mission was attributed to the inclusion of subpar French troops.
Having captured
the German envoy the Bashaw's Black Guard is taking him back to
Tangiers. Intel from a sympathetic member of the Bashaw's court revealed
their line of march to a German agent. The German expedition is intent
on attacking the column at or near the the port vill of El Safir before
it reaches Tangiers.
As the Aryan
strike force approaches the port town in the German gunboat Angriff another vessel is spotted on the
horizon steaming towards the city. It appears to be flying a French
flag.....
The uneasy alliance of the German and French forces to rescue the German envoy Graf Manfred von Kreigsieber from the clutches of the Emir Ali-ben-Fulin Arown has collapsed with the Bashawa's success in capturing him from the pirates of Mogadir and his subsequent forced pilgrimage on the way to Tangiers (the results of the last game).
What will happen next? That is up to you!
German and French Marines assaulting Mogadir!
This game will be run at Hurricon next month, an HMGS-South convention in Kissimmee / Orlando Florida, 29 September, 2018. There are still a couple of slots available for this game. If you miss out on this one there are at least 10 other great The Sword And The Flame rules based games as well as dozens of other outstanding games to join in on. We will use The Sword And The Flame standard 20th Anniversary Edition rules for the land actions and our preferred set of naval rules, Gunboat & Dhow that fit seamlessly with TSATF and are an exquisite compliment to an already outstanding rules set. G&D where designed and published by the indefatigable Last Stand Dan's Boatyard.
the modern Barbary Corsairs lair of Ali-ben-Fulin Arown, the site of the last battle.
Once the game is played I will post the scenario specifics. I'm reluctant to do so prior to the convention as I do not want to give too much away before the game is afoot.
