The Jackson (MS) Gamers are at it again. Follow this link to a great AAR and images from the soon-to-be-released TSATF variant, The Sword in East Africa: jacksongamers.net We are planning on its "official" debut at Colonial Barracks IV, Nov. 7, 8 & 9 in New Orleans. Meanwhile enjoy the preview. |

…the mast of the radio station was visible to the British if they bothered to look.  |

Looking forward toward seeing the variant rules as this is an area I already have lots of figures for in 28mm. Nice battle report. |

Thanks for the info. Looks promising… |

That's good news. This is one of those periods that I have wanted to do "one of these days". Maybe this variant will be the push that I need to finally buy some figures. Who makes good ranges of figures for this conflict in 20mm or 25/28mm?
Thanks,

There was actually an "unofficial" variant done back in the '70s. It appeared in The Courier. I don't recall the author, the last name may have been Lubbers (?) |

Nick, I think the one in the Courier was for the Wild West………? |

I think that this variation offered by Courrier was called "The Sword in Palestine"…and aimed at WW1 Sideshows in general..with a pict of some Frontier King's African Rifles escorting an Armoured Car..the article also proposed some few ideas/scenarios with Toes tailored for TSATF including one set on Mesopotamia with a British river gunboat..
i should have somewhere a faded photocopy or detached page of the magazine… |
