That's a lot of creative effort for nothing more than a fictitious conflict between make-believe nations.

I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically approve. :)

It is great. Trouble is it is so close to real! I see the Gambia president has decided he would like to stay after all. Nice piece of wargames to life!

It's great from the standpoint of graphics and the idea that it's reported as if it were real world.

But…I also would like to learn something about the game: what rules set? How did the rules play out especially if it's a publically available set. While I learned about two fictitious nations, presented very well, I might add, I learned nothing about the game.

Perhaps "If only" (famous words in history), if only the reinforcments had arrived 'even' a turn sooner, they would have held the town.

Great 'Report from the Front Lines" and AAR.

wow… how clever is that?

Raylev3, the rules are implied in the sub-title – an AK47 narrative campaign. As it's posted on the RFCM forum most readers will know the rules used were AK47 Republic, and will be familiar with the mechanics.

Well, I'm a dork. Missed it. But, and to be clear because it is a great review, I do like comments during the AAR that give me insight into the rules.

The thing with AK-47 "Banana" Republic is that even Bongolesia sounds real.
