Slightly down on numbers again this week, but we still managed to run two games. Andy P and Rob played Fallout, whilst I ran The Men Who Would Be Kings scenario based on an ambush on the Suakin front on 1885. Steve S played the British whilst Dave K and Mark skulked on the shrubbery as the Angry Locals. After the ambush was sprung, the following fight was exceptionally bloody, although Steve was throwing incredible firing dice. At the end of play both sides were significantly down on numbers; I will admit to a rules error in which I made the winners of melees test for pinning which they should not have done. This would have significantly assisted th Mahdists but since they prevented the British from achieving their objective of crossing the table, they could claim the victory. Apologies to all concerned, I blame senility/rules rustiness/Brexit . . .
Next week, Mark has offered a Lord of the Rings game. Rob will run another Fallout game.
See yer soon
Neil
