Did the Loco Loco run over him?

I think the person is crazy for Coco-Puffs.

Even though you took it down, I'm glad you posted it. I was able to download a copy of the rules you used. Thanks.

Interesting scenario. Pacho Villa's subordinate in charge of the Loco Loco strategy was General Fiero, aka "The Butcher". Thanks for sharing.

Indeed, thanks, is there a description how you went about making the"miniatures?"

Thank you, Condotta :)

sneakgun, I saved Mexican Revolution pages from the Junior General site onto Word. I printed them off. I cut them out and then mounted them on thickish card. I then trimmed them to an approximated shape around the figures. They are based on card board sheeting. The train and explosives wagon is also from the Junior General site. Same process except it is mounted on a balsa wood block and the red boxes are also balsa.

Hope this helps :)

Spanish: machina loco.

In which case, Henry Martini, it should be 'máquina loca' not 'machina loco'. Either description is fine: 'máquina loca' or 'loco loco' and both were used during the Revolution to describe dynamite packed trains.

Bueno, pues, entonces nada. ¡Gracias y adiós! :)
