"Kaiser's Revenge - Morocco 25 March 1903"

Kaiser's Revenge – Morocco 25 March 1903
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…



This is a follow up game based on the results from the last game played in this scenario series, The Hun The Frog & The Lion.

There are multiple factions involved, Germans, French, the Bashaw's troops, Barbary Pirates, Moroccan nationals, with Gunboats, Steamers, Xebecs, and Dhows, oh my.

My TSATF scenario has been uploaded to the Hurricon 2018 game grid. In addition, the colonial TSATF table has a game booked for every session during the con as well as a few other TSATF games to be run on other tables during the con. There are also plenty of other great games registered and some still to be registered.

Of such shenanigans games is our little hobby made fun.  Well, less those hoary bearded rules, popular as they are.  Love the basic concept, right along the ally of my Slightly Cracked Colonials that might someday see the light of day, or at least of a gaming room.

Thank you for the kind words! I shall post game pics and the scenario briefings after the con so as not to give away the scenario objectives and any special rules before the game. I can't have one faction or another gaining too much Intel on the other.....
