Hi, I'm wanting to do a small scenario game – basically one force (probably my Feudal Spanish escorting the Victory Cross of St Pelayo) having to get the Cross from one end of the table to the other, being intercepted / ambushed by a raiding party (presumably of my Andalusians). But I'm not sure about how to get the balance right. I wonder if there's an old "Table Top Teaser" or similar that someone could direct me to or share with me that I could use, as is or as a starting point. Thanks, John |

Scenario 26 "Convoy Escort" in Asquith and Grants Scenarios for all Ages? The Raid on a Train scenario in the same book looks similar. |

Is that available anywhere? I understand that some of them are. |

It's a standard. "Ambush" from the old Table Top Teasers (Military Modelling Jul/Aug 1979) "Ambush (1)" in Scenarios for Wargames, "Area Ambush" in Programmed Wargames Scenarios, and as Martin says "Civilian Convoy Escort" in SFAA. Most things are available, but some need to be purchased from used book dealers or obtained digitally. Here's SFW link |

What rules do you use? I think Lion Rampant has this scenario. |

Here are pdfs of The Teasers. Wagon Train is the third down I think and there is the AAR as well. Looks like it was done with permission. hope this helps. link |

Hmm, The SFW link didn't seem to get me to the actual document, just an endless login loop … I'll keep persevering. I have managed to get the wagon train scenario It looks like what I had in mind. Thanks everyone. I'll post an update when it happens :~) Cheers, John |

"Most things are available, but some need to be purchased from used book dealers or obtained digitally. Here's SFW link" All I got was a withdrawal from my credit card … |
