The Quest for the Jade Buddha (prologue)

 


The first action of this series of games takes place on the above table , the White Russian force appear on the table edge nearest the camera and the Chinese on the far edge .


I will be using this set of rules which a quick to plat and simple enough to remember and the chance cards and command dice make it easy to play solo.


The Russian Commander 


The White Russian forces three units of Militia , one Line unit and one 'Officer' unit which count as Elite , in the background is a unit of Cossacks 


The Chinese Warlord 


Again six units made up of three Militia , an SMG armed Assault unit and a Fanatic 'Dare to Die' unit , the Cavalry are provided by Mongolian tribesmen


There are three objectives to capture the first on the left is represented by an enigmatic Monk in a ruined Temple .


In the centre a lurking stranger .


And on the right the body of a Messenger in the ruined cabin in the woods .To capture these the units will have to move onto the objective and hold it for two moves ....
