Are there any Sword and the Flame rules for a Wind and the Lion scenario pitting the U.S. Marines and/or European powers against Rasuli and/or the Berber tribes of Morocco? |

A good previous post on it. Love the unit cards in particular TMP link |

In the lack of such a scenario, I would simply rate the Marines as British.
Rate the snooty Europeans as Egyptian.
Call the forces of Sean Connery, excuse me, the Raisuli, as Dervish. When fighting Bad Guy Germans, give them as many +1s as you deem appropriate. 👍 Historically, Ion Perdicaris should be played by Ed Asner, but who wants to see sexual tension between Ed and Sean? I think not.
And give Mrs Perdicaris a bunch of +1s too.
And when Lt Jerome is through with the Marines, he can go and manage Southfork. |

The full 15mm range "Pedicaris Alive Or Raisuli Dead! is still very much available here: link The Unit Cards were the product of Our Friend, "Sgt. Guinness" (Jeff Baumal) for his version of the game Richard Houston, Chris Ferree, and I first developed back in the 80's, and which JB has run many times at HurriCon and elsewhere. The blank version of those TSATF Unit Card are still available in editable PDF form, free for the asking, by E-mailing TVAG@att.net with the request. The original scenario was "inspired" by the incomparable movie, but allowed for many more factions, including an amphibious facet and the chance of ship-to-ship action off the coast. Truly, an inexhaustible well of gaming, that movie! TVAG |

I ordered TSATF in North Africa but Lori Brom passed away. Will I get my copy or do I need to get my money back? |

Just consider your money lost. |
