Guys, I blew it. Either WI or MW published a scenario some years back in which the Bakers--Sam, Valentine and Florence--held Khartoum instead of Gordon and, the city having fallen, were attempting to make their way to a getaway boat on the Nile. I almost certainly have the scenario on my shelves, but I can't find it again. Can anyone give me an issue number? Failing that, a title and author so I don't leaf past?

Thanks.

Argh! I know exactly the article you are referring to, but I got rid of most of my old WI's!

I will leaf through the ones I still have and let you know if I find it.

Sorry, no dice, I just flipped through them. Good luck finding it.

IIRC they were trying to fight their way to the river and escape via boat with random mahdists popping up.

Yep, that's the one, thanks. A first-rate premise for a solo game. I haven't gotten rid of any of mine, so it MUST be there somewhere, which means I've gone through the pile and looked right past it at least once.

I am not familiar with the scenario, but would love to read it. Using this handy index: link
I found "Even More Death on the Nile" by Chris Peers WI #193. Could this be it?

I looked it up using WI Vault. This is the scenario you're looking for. There's not much to it, just one and a half pages and no map. But it's good inspiration for a small game. PM me if you can't find your copy.

This scenario sounds right up my street – any chance you could share please?
