A recent rather undocumented battle from the 'Back of Beyond' involving the Chinese Warlord Fung Shui and his quest for the 'Jade Buddha' in which his forces attack and try to cut the railway line thus depriving the Russians supplies and reinforcements - it did not go well for him.
The Chinese have Artillery !!!
That didn't shoot all game !
A strategically place White Russian HMG ., this proved the undoing of the Chinese left wing attack.
The Chinese Infantry move out of the cover of woods into the hailstorm of Russian fire .
The Chinese Mongolian Cavalry charge into the village and having driven off one Russian unit are shot to pieces in the deadly crossfire ! - Oh dear things are not going well for Fung Shui !
The White Russian Priest (with the look of Rasputin) encourages his parishioners in defence of the village and the impetuously charge across the battlefield and capture the Chinese Artillery piece ! at this point Fung Shui thought it was time to call it off and retire . Sorry for not recording more of the action but in the heat and excitment of the game I forgot !
It looks like this game was a lot of fun to play Tony! A great way to spend the better part of the day!
ReplyDeleteYes it was , I rather got carried away with it and forgot to photograph the main of the action.
DeleteA fine hame report. Sometimes, being a bit more general than blow by blow renders a better narrative, particularly suited to pulp/ back of beyond excursions!
ReplyDeleteYes I'm no a fan of lenghty battle reports myself (and I forgot to take more pictures)
DeleteThe Russia clergy do like a bit of bloodshed!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking game Tony
Yes think they are originally West Wind vampire hunters (?)
