Operation Karakorum (VBCW+ BoB+ NwF)
« on: December 26, 2024, 10:47:07 PM »
One of the things I like about the vbcw is that you can pick up things you like from here and there.

Taking the ideas from the book "The Fall of the Empire" plus a bit of "Back of Beyond" or the "Northwest Frontier" we get the operation Karakorum. A Soviet attempt to destabilize the unstable north of the British Raj.

We already have the second chapter of the story this time exploring an abandoned town while fleeing from the evil Soviet agents.

Too bad for the shepherd... :o

You got one of the evil Soviets.  But I'm quite sure the other will turn up again, sooner or later...

I enjoyed your battle reports, especially the NWF one. Is that a one off story or the start of a larger campaign?

Only time will tell. I now have another one planned in India as part of this mini-campaign, it would be episode number 4. Episode 5? It could be for us to return the girl to her father.

The mini is from achtung cthulhu skirmish game from modiphius.

You can translate it with the blogger tool. Is in the top right in the page. Very easy and very good translation.

That was a nice twist. Didn't see that coming at all. Very nice touch.
