The Faschoda Crisis (or so ...)
« on: 12 August 2007, 06:39:41 PM »
We had a nice game and much fun last Friday at the club (THS) with a colonial scenario and some splendid terrain built by a guy called Grimm ... The one or other here will have heard abaut him and his terrain building qualities.  :mrgreen:



Bernhard had invested major parts of his income in traditional northern german jungle terrain after being completely charmed by Matrose Grimm's splendid stuff ..., so he set up a nice game featuring hordes of african warriors, shy and restrained british troops, treacherous arabian slavers and ruffians, belgian - sorry - french colonial troops and - last but not least - a Predator. Yes, that's true, and most of the time he was on stealth mode. The Predator, not Bernhard, who played him. So we could call us lucky ones, `cause when he was visible on the table, he was in killing mode ...  :twisted:

A real nice game with short but playable and fast skirmish rules by Bernhard himself and Grimm's impressive terrain features - we had lots of fun and a good time as usual.

Oh yes - the game was sponsored by youporn.com indeed. That's what I was told at least ... 8)  :lol:





Have a look and read some comments here

Due to time restrains it was easier for me to comment the game this way than to write down a complete gaming report.

Hope you have fun,

nice week!

Hi Grimm,

as I said on my page, the african warriors were painted by Bernhard's wife some time ago, and I have asked already for myself: she would not do it again!  :cry:

So, we both need to paint our masai minis ourselves!  :)
