Gents,

Following on from our first game we engage with the forces of Great Britain in the form of a Naval Landing expedition under the command of one Capt. Johnston, R.N. circa 1891. He opposes an arab slaver, Ibn Zafari, who defends against the impertinant European meddling in African affairs.

All the info at the new A Grab Bag of Games.

Enjoy!

Thanks chaps,

Glad you've enjoyed the story so far.
