Hallo to all.
This is my first post and my first incursion as "designer" of an adventure for miniatures (although I have played several times "pulp" scenarios prepared by friends). Any suggestion will be more than wellcome.
This is the baseline of the "project":
Use "Triumph and tragedy" rulebook.
Miniatures:
German seaman (Brigade)
German "Seebattalion" (Pulp figures).
German artillery 1887 Krupp 84 mm (Redoubt).
Chinese regular infantry (Old Glory).
"Boxers" (Old Glory).
Chinese regular artillery (Old Glory).
Chinese (Boxer) smoothbore gun (Redoubt).
European Civilians (Foundry).
Classiffication of the (available in this moment) troops:
Boxer: Raw.
Chinese regular infantry: Trained.
Chinese artillery: Trained.
German seaman: Trained (or Veteran?)
German "Seebattallion": Veteran
German artillery: Veteran.
Sequence of the adventure:
1- December 1899 - Save the Mission personel: the Mission of Shan-Tung (fictitious). A Boxer riot wants to kill all christian chinese civilians that works in the mission... but gunboat SMS Möwe (fictitious) were patrolling the river.
2- June 1900 - Save the guns. Boxer attack Tiensin arsenal. Artillery must be saved at all cost.
3- June 1900 - Storm Taku forts (1). A hand-blow to Taku heavy guns should be done prior to the assault of the allied troops.
4- June 1900 - Storm Taku forts (2). SMS Möwe atack chinese vessels.
5- June 1900 - Storm Taku forts (3). The assault.
(It will continue...)
Any suggestion that may help in the way that "heroes" can "learn" along the adventure?
From which manufacturer I can get Chinese civilians?
Changes 1.1: Chinese artillery as Trained and German Artillery as Veteran.
Changes 1.2: German artillery Fk16 77 mm gun (Brigade) change to 1887 Krupp 84 mm (Redoubt).
Changes 1.3: Chinese smoothbore gun for Boxer artillery.
