Tribal Infantry in the trenches outside the fort.  The trench came as a nasty surprise to the advance and complicated the attack on the fort as a consequence.

The right hook punches in towards Fort Krebs.  After several turns of inactivity, the allied Tribal Infantry mount the final hill...

The British Infantry take up positions in cover close to the fort, and begin to pour in an accurate fire on the defenders manning the walls.

Hadendowa rifles on the roof of the fort engage in a firefight with the British.  At the end of the battle this unit was pinned and the British poised to launch their assault on the fort.  This is the last picture of the battle.

The game played out well and all participants performed with great tactical nouse and within the spirit of the game - huge credit to all concerned!

Wow, great game!  

Doing hidden set-up with markers and a photo is a great idea.
