Written for Hell and Uncivil Disorder it'll probably translate well enough to pretty well any rule set

That's a good one. I'll give it a try.

I confess I've always liked putting together scenarios. As well as the blog I've got a facebook group for my rules and books

I'd mentioned technicals on the group, looking for pictures, and somebody posted the picture of the two vehicles with crew. And the idea came from that :-)

Just need an evac from a roof scenario now to tell the final story.

I'd just about trust them with the maintenance on a land cruiser but I'm not sure I'd climb aboard an insurgent maintained helicopter with and confidence :-)

Mind you, it has to be confessed, there's a scenario in there.

The last time we evacuated Afghanistan was in 1919 after the 3rd Afghan War
Apparently the British Ambassador was running for the plane (Indiana Jones style) and had to stop to shoot one of his pursuers with a pistol.

Given my Grandfather was drafted into a Lancashire provisional battalion to take part in that war, (everybody else got to go home after November 1918 but the safety of the Empire demanded that Acting Sergeant Francis Webster had to put in another twelve months

Many thanks for finally pushing me over the edge and rebase all of my 15mm African thu- ahemm, soldiers and rebels

Hope you have fun with them. If you can, pick up some media teams as well, Irregular Miniatures have a reporter and cameraman in their 15mm riot range :-)

Oh and the scenario you provoked :-)

Not modern as such by I thought I'd mention it as it's this board that started me thinking
