Its several years since I visited the Sahara - in miniature of course ! so I got out my copy of TSATF and set up a game for something a bit different.
It is a dawn raid on a Arab village by a French column comprising of 3 companies of Senegalese Tirailleurs and a Mountain Gun -facing them 2 Arab foot units and 3 mounted units (generated by a dice throw).
The French force advances in the early dawn .
They are ready for the attack !.
Help is on the way !
The Tirailleurs come under fire from the village .
The Mountain Gun moves up in support .
The French open fire !.
An event card is drawn - the fight hots up ! Too be continued ......
I look forward to more news from this battle.
