This Sunday saw another early opening giving Will (Russians) and Andrew (Spanish) the opportunity to get a couple of campaign games in.
Things started simple with both players starting with the Investigation Scenario. In additional to their regular unit both players agreed to try out some experimental rules for supporting regular inf/cav units. These will be published for general use moving forward once they have been tweaked from action in these games and proof read.
Both players set up with 5 clue markers being available for investigation. The Spanish had a Rifle and Infantry unit to support them whilst the Russians had a unit of Light Cav and Infantry (proxied by some spare Spanish, or in this case Russian with nicked Spanish uniforms).
The Russians light cav where set upon by a Changeling but quick over whelmed it in combat. Meanwhile the rest of the force advanced the Infantry and Rifle Soilder climbing on a roof for cover and taking pot shots at the Spanish coming up the road towards them.
The rest of the Spanish made a run through the trees grabbing what objectives they could, revealing the Hobgoblin Objective that had been terrorising the local area.
The Spanish tried in vain to bring it down in combat, the cheeky Russians sniped the wounded Hobgoblin from under there noses. This left a couple more clues to investigate before the game would end.
The Prussian officer cleaned up the central clue near the statue.
Whilst the Spanish officer nabbed the last one ending the game.
Whilst no one came out of the game in a bad way, the Russians had nabbed the most XP and took the day.
And the Spanish made off with what they found whilst dodging the Pixies that turned up at the end of the game.
