[El Comandante]

The second game - the dry riverbed, the zwambesi


the first thing I should imagine the place of the event: the dry riverbed, the zwambesi


The protagonists of the "good side" (left to right Tellus, Tankred, Lemming) discuss how to proceed, with some urging them to hurry up - was not Mr. Kertesz!


The expedition, laden with the trophies and the diary of the "rough - Expedition" on the road in the rocky river bed of the Zwambesi.


... But there they were played by the fierce Mazuluhäuptling (Hannibal)


... And his fearsome Mazulukriegern (an aboriginal tribe, perhaps man-eaters? That one does not know it) is expected.


The wait was not long Mazulus and access our expedition at once backward.


Digwiddow Obadiah was the first who had to painfully learn that not all natives were peaceful. Held the second was the small Mulu of doing what made all the big white hunter with these tin cans, he expressed that little lever and a loud popping Mulu drove a shock through the bone and put him a few steps backward.


Taken but not visibly impressed by this flesh wound, "said the Mazuluhäuptling his specially carried medicine woman (not necessarily especially attractive) and was treated.


The Major Stiff now took up the rear and securing it partly troubled carrier.


The onslaught of this notorious Mazulukrieger not ebbed.


The expedition group was moving slowly along the rocky river bed along to get out of casting distance of the spears to the Mazulus. The professor appeared Kertesz this approach much too much free time and decided on their own march faster.


The professor in the "conversation" with the medicine woman of the Mazulus - two factors saved our professor from certain Bewusstseinsdelirium
1. the recently discovered Hugulu mask over his face
2. the fact that he ran around the whole but very out of breath and was therefore almost the entire pinch wegschnaufte towards Medizinweib - ohh lucky again.


A wild fight broke out around the carrier of the expedition, which was conducted with all the hardship and perseverance.


Even the little Mulu fought bravely.


One after another was dragged into the thick jungle, with no prospect of return.


A long series of stolen makers paves its way into the jungle.


Our professor Kertesz, however, drew clear on its sprint through the river bed as all sorts of creatures from the thicket. But after a moment's reflection, he went this capital bull elephant would rather be out of his way.


One of the Mazuluwarrior not had as much luck as the professor and was immediately pierced by the mighty tusks of the bull.


At the height of what is happening now at last a hit, the requested increase. (left to right Lemming, Hannibal, El Comandante, and Tellus)


The amplification was none other than the agent of His Majesty the King of Bavaria Luitpold of Schneiding (Gamsbart on his huge hat to be recognized) and the charming Frederike of small, in a specially chartered balloon.


The Lord of Schneiding attacked at once a well into the action and showed them what a native Ziegenhainer floor so everything can inflict on the bare buttocks. Quite to the delight of the enraptured girl.


The professor seems to draw animals in Africa to which any such kräucht and fläucht. "... Now not only move so close to the finish."


But since someone cast an eye on our so enraptured girl. Where the intentions are probably not be quite virtuous.


... And once the Mazuluhäuptling, backed by his warriors, his indomitable manhood, and has pursued a short hand pulled the girl out of the balloon gondola.


... Now he sets out towards the jungle. The rest of the expedition could only look on in shock as is stolen around wildly beating, screaming girl.


Stiff Major is the first of the situation recognizes and seeks to persecution from the balloon. Immediately make the rest of the expedition members from their native barnacles free to climb and the balloon - Small for "... the liberation of Miss."


How do we go from here?

Will they get back the girl again, before the Little Professor's knowledge?

How fast is the Professor Kertesz at the base camp and he's really on the right path?

[El Comandante]

The third game



After our adventure a bitter defeat in the dry riverbed of Zwambesi were forced to accept (where you have the little girl kidnapped), they made their way into the Mazuludorf to liberate you.
Texts: El Comandante, Images: Tankred


... And there they were again, brave adventurer, angry natives, and many animals (left to right Dmaga, Tellus, Hannibal, El Comandante, English adventurer with monitoring and Lemming)


After the introduction of game it was clear who, where and how to start in the new adventure.
The joy was great - Tancred (right) aka Major Stiff took control of the balloon, of course, after a short briefing by the owner of Schneiding aka Mr. Lemming (left)


We must show - THE MAZULUDORF - ... one goes about his errands, waiting for the chief and brought along the "food" ...


... The Mazulu cooking here has already prepared something and waits only for the ingredients.


The Mazulu warriors are back from their tour and food gather at the chief's hut and go through the serving suggestions brought the booty (Little Miss).


From the North-west, the wind was good, the balloon went onto the field. (left to right Lemming, Yossarian with accompaniment, Tankred, Tellus)


Obadiah and the Major Stiff control slowly and quietly purposefully towards the Mazuludorf.


... "And stiff, they can already see what? Yes, I see a collection of Mazulus and that the shaman is added to our Kertesz so, too! ... Damn woman "


After the balloon was discovered they had quickly agreed on a method of preparation and food preparations could begin.


Meanwhile, the Baron of Schneiding slipped, led by the young Mulu from south-west to the village was discovered, and so like a rather unpleasant contemporaries - Hygangu and his three hyenas.


The small Mulu was greeted immediately by the three ugly stately animals and the Lord of Schneiding he took advantage of the lack of attention to detail in the village to steal.


After the "meal" was clear, he sent Mazuluhäuptling (aka Hannibal), one of his warriors from around the main ingredient in the women's hut to fetch. (left to right Tellus, Hannibal, El Comandante, Lemming)


... Where did this with some tribal women an unwanted acquaintance.


The opportunity seemed favorable, and Stiff moved one of his sticks of dynamite from his pocket and threw it into a high arc directly on the shield of a warrior Mazulu, from where it bounced off and exploded on the ground.


Startled by these events brought the villagers to safety, and covered here on so many Encounter markers. It seemed the little dog of Miss. - Lord Nelson.


Two villagers discovered something in the bush and shouted so that a third force on the scene - the French.


After the three hyena had bitten the little Mulu crippled, they let go of him and devoted themselves to the command Hygangus the Baron of Schneiding.


The smoke cleared and the result was visible: one dead and three motionless Mazulus.


But who was standing still? This unfortunate shaman.


. . . by all means tried to kill the shaman. Even a considerable number Heropoints was used for this. (v.l.n.r. Hannibal, Tellus, Tankred)


Now the chief had also personally took care of the Proper feeding of the main court and secures the further removal.


Meanwhile, the bodyguard of warriors Analulu candy "kitchen cleaned up" and put the fallen ladder to the jug again.


And again may lead to, is now mandatory Shootout between Analulu (Hannibal) and Stiff (Tankred).


. . . But the fate of (dice) gave no satisfactory result, and so had to heroic actions (Heropoints) fate will be helped on their way.


The little terrier "Lord Nelson" the lady, ran straight overestimating his abilities in a disastrous melee with this heartless Mazuluhäuptling.


Once it's done with the dog the lady was brought into position. M. Schneiding was able to make not much, since the path is too long and the Mazulu are too numerous.


. . . and since it's already happened - the girl has been geschupst into the soup and is now waiting to be cooked thoroughly.


But since the bill without Mazulus Stiff and Obadiah have made. The wind was favorable and the thrust was enough for a point landing on the pitcher. That's PULP


Now we have to take the girl out of the pitcher and get rid of these annoying Mazulu.


That is a sight that everyone is completely banned on the scuffle in the balloon basket. This situation get the French out of shame like to continue to advance into the Dorfinnere and take possession of the diary to.


The balloon takes off, but it was high time the Mazulu, Stiff and Obadiah are still not happening.


Discuss the three protagonists (the Frenchman who Mazuluhäuptling and M. Schneiding) "" the pick-up arrangements for the Grobentagebuches.


Hui but was just so good, now let's return to base camp.

After our adventure, the Little Miss Mazulus liberated from the clutches of our professor, and thus FK Small could return to the real task - the study of the man-eater of Tzwapo - he ordered a big-game hunting.

Texts: El Comandante, Images:Tankred


"The big game hunting in Tzwapoland" - In the main roles: Major Stiff (Tancred), Colonel of Tittwitz (Matt), Baron of Schneiding (Lemming), Obadiah (Tellus), and Kptl. Hermsdorff (Hannibal), the supporting characters Ana Lulu Bimbo, the little Mulu, the white lion of Tzwapo, the ogre of Tzwapo; guest performances by the King Cheetah (firstshoot) and the giraffe ...


The site is built, the animals are ready, the wind is cheap ... you can start


The new advanced base camp - The Professor FK Kleine (with backs to the viewer) in conversation with Professor Kertesz (right) and a Belgian colleague (when I drink tea) and other guests: the Little Miss (with dog Lord Nelson) and Mrs. Little (in the blue dress) and the wife of Belgian colleagues (turquoise dress)


Last anecdotes of Baron Schneiding before you start - from left to right Carlo, Matt, Hannibal, El Comandante, Lemming, Tellus


... The researchers arrive - v.l.n.r. Matt (Colonel von Tittwitz) has a plan: "... shoot at anything that moves"


... It entered the Colonel and the Kptl. Hermsdorf the site of action


... Under the leadership of Obadiah and Major Stiff is the big game


It has dealt with the dangerous situation (the man-eaters in this area) resigned and went to his daily activities.


... Sergeant Rees and the little Mulu are advancing further


Lumbimbo, a true and loyal to Colonel native medicine man makes the first contact acquaintances in the local scene predator


Lieutenant Hermsdorff has also found that just three ahead Zutzi skillful drivers and taken them under his command - they willingly follow your Massa.


With the security of one of the best big-game hunter Obadiah feel a small group of warthogs in the same way he also takes on Fire


A look across the Tzwapo sink to the advanced base camp


Lumbimbo ... and is still in the "conversation" with only one of the spotted hyena. His happiness was the accuracy of the Barons of the Schneiding from his balloon gondola shot out some of these animals for themselves and the science.


Major Stiff gets in the local population nor the most recent information, after he has heard here is to drive a certain Ana Lulu around ...


... And then dive quite unexpectedly out of the dense jungle, the old friends.


The day is coming slowly but surely coming to an end and it remains suspiciously quiet in the Tzwapo Valley.


After the Baron of Schneiding has landed his balloon and looking around in the area occurs quite unexpectedly, a giraffe from the thicket, he would have been happy almost being caught under the hooves.


But Obadiah had been lucky this time and is not trampled in the ostrich's nest. This very peaceful animals that might otherwise can quickly become a serious threat.


With a slow motion, graceful motion paves the giraffe their way to the shore of the most dangerous waterhole Tzwapo.


. . . its secondary objective firmly in the eye of Francis Schmetterer sets, on the orders of Baron Schneiding on this rare specimen of an indigenous medicine woman to stun them for further investigations. (left to right by Matt-Colonel Tittwitz, Carlo man-eater of Tzwapo, Hannibal-Kptl. Hermsdorff, El Comandante-director and animal Players lemming Baron Schneiding and in the background Tellus-Obadiah and Mulu)


But then ... in the bushes behind the Colonel, there were suspicious noises, the evil casts its shadow ahead of (left to right Matt, Carlo, Hannibal)


.. and now ES or ER was was there, the man-eaters of Tzwapo enters the Tzwapo Valley.


... That had some foodcompetitor sit up and become careless, as this king cheetah


. . . and immediately the minute the Baron inattention, took advantage of this rare king cheetah around him with only a single shot directly into the left eye, animal succumbed preperator fairly.


Elsewhere, the sergeant took Rees and Kptl. Hermsdorff further challenges. The Sergeant Major's settled on the instructions of an old account with this Mazulufrau and Kptl. fulfilled a long cherished dream of a lion's skin.


Both shots were and they congratulated each other. One had a lion's skin in front of the fireplace and the other the Boo ....s about it.


After having shot almost everything in Tzwapoland of predators is discussed the next steps.


They decided on a pincer movement on the suspected location of the ogre. On the incredibly curious Lumbimbo balloon had a little argument with the Schmetterer Francis on the further use of the balloon.


No longer needed Zutzi drivers arrive in advanced base camp.


It is dark in the sink Tzwapo the hour of the ogre is here ...


... And because he had attacked and again it is the Kptl. Hermsdorf of such predators probably magically attracts.


The Sergeant Rees can not stand the sight of long stretches and tactically clever back towards base camp. Unfortunately, he still smells after a terrible Elefantensch ... (in which he has fallen recently) so that no one wants to hear his story, preferring the wide search. (which makes no impression on the women)


Since it has accidentally Schmetterer Franz (or perhaps fired intentionally?) With the anesthetic rifle at the Colonel, who also fell into a deep sleep so alike. A good but it had, as Franz was the elephant-killer ammunition which the colonel had been found recently to take up and a better shooter feeder like he said "These committees can Saupreussen eh well ... nice."


But now ... so fresh ammunition in the direction of man-eater.


After the Sergeant Rees was caught again, he went forward on the path to the eye of the storm and took the hill and the small Willi Mulu voluntarily or involuntarily (escape from the horrible smell) with a short right hand.


... Because the men but had reckoned without Lumbimbo who fearlessly (at the command of Colonel revival) on the man-eater rushed and thus the great white hunters had plenty of time to make a safe shot.


The Lumbimbo was on its last legs and even the first shots were fired at the man-eater. Ultimately, however, the Baron of Schneiding can be proved with a single aimed shot from a revolver to end this chapter in the eye of the beast - the man-eater of Tzwapo -.

... and so ends this story ... But Africa is large and there is still much to explore hunt ähhm
