Holy War - First Pics

[Ignatieff]

The Czar is defended by the few remaining Imperial Guardsmen


The Bolshevik offensive grinds to a halt and Red Ted's infantry take to the hills! (The former armed lavatory attendent can be seen in tha background in Cheka regalia, mounted and skulking behind a coal bunker)


Von Stauffenberg's terror weapon takes to the skies!

cracking! especially the first one

Mayhem in downtown Krasnovodsk.  The Brits hold the Central bank, Cornelius Brandt (a.k.a Richard Hannay)stands strident, the Whites rush the bridge, and various locals cause chaos in the streets....


The Krasnovodsk Anarchist Collective gird their loins! (note the local brothel, pre-torching, in the background)


Von Stauffenberg respects the local truce with the French in Camp Josephine, but the perfidious Adrianstanis do not.....

[Ignatieff]

That's all folks!

Ignatieff,
A vote of thanks for another great run of inspirational photos and commentary.  I really look forward to these game reports and seeing examples of what we all aspire to in table top gaming!  Also, thanks for sending me copies of "The Pink" during my latest sickness.  I'm convinced that it helped me to get better.

When?

Can't wait to see them!
[will you transport any of your vessels there ,too? I find it impossible!]

[Ignatieff]

I am struggling, it has to be said, to find a rationale for deploying the Potemkin

There is no rivers deep and easy enough to sail!
the only significant lake is "Karakul" and I do not find it of strategic importance.
So, the only way if you really need a vessel, transport it in prefabricated parts and built it inside the lake [I suspect that the Karakul city has some facilities].
I saw also an airport, surprise, by Kashgar

I am afraid that it will be beeter to use your airpowerr!

[argsilverson]

Oh and you will need lots of yaks and bactrian camels to transport them!

[Ignatieff]

Presumable the air at those altitudes preclude much flying either, unless the planes are modified?
