Premise was that the BUF had crashed a truck carrying state papers. The mission for the Swedes of The Anglican League and their opponents The Liverpool Free State was to get to the truck , find the state papers and exit off the table with them. Here was the set up-
In my role as umpire l controlled a unit of local militia ( unbeknown to the two players) which would deploy from the building nearest the crashed lorry when any troops were sighted.
Opposing forces enter from opposite side of the table. The BUF sympathisers have mobilised and are ready to protect the lorry.
Swedes and Liverpudlian troops face off in the village outskirts.
Here are a few pictures from the game-
The Swedes about to take the truck , search it and of course watch out for mines whilst crossing the road.
I have to ask, why Swedes??
ReplyDeleteI am fascinated by Swedish history, the interwar uniform is cool, some even in tricornes, l enjoyed researching the background to this unit and adding a little vbcw extra to it, the figures are a joy to paint and what’s not to like😊

Ok, I see....so there is absolutely no connection between Swedes and the BUF or any potential political airfare in 1930's Britain.....fair enough, it's all in the imagination of the gamer anyway!
DeleteCracking looking game. Interesting scenario and I like the idea of the GM controlling a unit that the players know nothing about.
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun role to play, l enjoyed umpiring very much.
