The dice favoured me, and I didn't slip up tactically this time.
The laws of probability do not apply to my dice in wargames or to my finesses in bridge.

Fortunately for you, the lady will surely strike back.

Anyway: was it a closer match than the last time?

Actually, less so. As I say, the dice were on my side; good rolls for movement got my troops where I wanted them, and the combat rolls were very poor for the Mahdists.

She'll have a winning streak again some day.

Third time lucky. Today, the Madhi tries his luck against Billy Hicks at Hayid Pahk. As the commander of the regulars, I feel significantly less confident this time.

Lee's fans will rejoice to hear that she wiped the floor with Hicks' force today.

The start. I hoped to arrange a bit of a "ring of steel" defence, but my mounted got tempted out (bad habit of mine; can't resist advancing).

As picture two shows, things got complicated quickly.

I also hoped to shell the Khalif's camel regiment, and himself, straight to Paradise. Not one dam' hit. :(
