General Pettygree Colonial Adventure Stories/Wargames
« on: February 19, 2014, 04:14:55 AM »
Hello Everyone,
-----
In 1903 we find General and Mary Pettygree in the Nile Delta when he receives news a Hadendowah revival has caused a "muddle" at the Port of Suakin in The Soudan here:

-----
The story (reminiscent of 1930s serials) advances mostly by captioned photos and some narration. See the wargame we conducted last September 14, 2013.
-----
My respects and compliments to all here,
Bill P.

PS
I hope you enjoy the story, photos and become invested in our characters as time goes by.

Thanks for sharing  :)
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

What a nice way to tell a story...  8)

I do like the way you've layed that out, different and very absorbing! I'm going to go back and read the other chapters now, bugger work!  ;)

Thank you very much for your interest in the story. I appreciate that very much. The next chapter is almost totally photographed. It could appear the week of Feb. 24th.
Respectfully,
Bill
