(
http://forum.backofbeyond.de/viewtopic.php?t=4122&highlight=mao)
the British Agent ,Sir Montague Rutherford, stard a guerrilla war aganst the fearsome Hei´No and his forces.
A few weeks he attack the warlords here and there but then Rutherford hearing about a convoy with warlord Uniforms and supply.
He come up with a realy desperad plan.
The Plan was to get the supply .
With the uniforms the chinese rebels sneak in Hei`No´s stronghold and attack the guards from within the fortress wile a force of british servicemen attack from outside .
That would end the lordship of Hei´No.
All was in the hands of a small unit of rebels that ambush the convoy........
We play the TaT Rules (

A small Force of rebels lead by a British Agent try to get some trucks of the Warlord convoy .
The Warlord´s try to escape on the Road to the other table edge .
(We want to test the vehicle rules from TaT )
The Game take place in our Wargaming Club in Hamburg.
The Players are Heino and Rob as the Rebels and me as the Warlord .
Grimm before the game sure he will win

My Trucks arrive , supported by cavalry.

My convoy speed up
Then I see Rob and I know he has a evil plan ,you can see it here or not ?

http://www.displacedminiatures.com/Grimm/image.html?galleryId=2635&imageId=25970here you can see Rob making party after that hit (also see Mad Mö) .
http://www.displacedminiatures.com/Grimm/image.html?galleryId=2635&imageId=25984My trucks take the curve and I hope that my leader car will make the run ,but Rutherford has other plans for it.
(A unit armed with pistols is to hard in a TaT game so on´t do it at home )
things where bad for the Warlords but the Game was not lost two Trucks where still on the road and they where close to victory .
I take a new curve only to see some barricade !!!
the Truck chrush thru it
but I lose control of the truck and the truck scatter in the mody ground near the road.
the next car stop by the agents
http://www.displacedminiatures.com/Grimm/image.html?galleryId=2635&imageId=25979I have only the truck that stuck in the roadside.
The driver look in the driving mirror and see...........
a turn later all was over.
my last ativation was a special action to surrender with my last unit .
the rebels win and take the supply wait for part two of the plan ...........
winers
(never play with old guys )
loosers
http://www.displacedminiatures.com/Grimm/image.html?galleryId=2635&imageId=25988so after the battle what can I say about the TaT vehicle rules ?
You Guy know I am a TaT fanboy and I realy like the rules but the vehicle rules dosen´t work fine ,with more then two or three vehicle on the tabel.
lots of the vehicle rules are not clear and you have to make houserules for them .
The good thing is that makeing some houserules for a TaT game dosen´t waist the gameplay ,what I mean is that it is easy to make houserules and you dosen´t change the gameplay.
After all I hope that TaT will produce a vehicle book with a clear and easy way to use more then two vehicle in a game .
cheers Grimm
