Title: HMS Gnat on the Yangtze, save the consul!
Post by: stefanov on 27 October 2012, 10:52:06 AM

Please have a look at our latest scenario using house boat rules.
Battle roster for chinese warlords, britich troops and weapon dealers,
and armed civilians.
If anybody is interested, I may post unit cards and ship control sheet.

Thank you for posting this great report from what seems to me like a very entertaining multi player game.
Its very nice  to see gamers enjoy our rules.
I am very much interested to see the unit cards and ship control sheet posted.
Thanks again.

thank you for
writing these wonderful rules!
In two weeks time we will play a colonial game, I will try to place a second report.

Ooops, cards are there. Need for fun tested boat rules I think!

Nice board and report!   :-*

Lots of great minis marching about but I must say I love the gunboat and the aeronef especially!  ;D

Really fun looking game, has a hint of "The League of Extraordinary Kriegspielers" to it - something I'd like to emulate one day.  :)

It is very hard to balance play when creating a scenario and even harder to predict the players actions.

Just one question on the Gnat's pdf - there are 2 locations marked 5 is this an error?

Great battlefield and figures!  Looks groovey.

I can't get access the PDF's.  Do I need a Log In ID?  How do I get that?

Great looking game and I really enjoyed your battle report.  Thanks for sharing your scenario, I'm currently working on a 6 player one for hosting at a couple of local conventions next year.  Nice to see how you set yours up and also read your lessons learned.

Favorite part of the AAR:
"The building explodes, some wouned chinese still occupying the building fly into air."
 lol

Hi there,

thank you for spotting the gross error on the Gnat card, I fixed it.

I would be delighted if this scenario is brought to a show and played by other groups. Alternative history at work!

Regarding the downloading of pdf's, it seems to be working for some fellows, so it might be the browser which does not allow to download. You don't need any password to access them.

cheers Stefano

Good game even if thought it had flaws.  I am waiting for my copy of T&T (on backorder  :-[ ) but have some troops ready to play.
