"Subedar Bikram Singh", began Colonel Dugald Armstrong, VC, DSO, etc., "We have found the location of the Mad Guru and his murderous band of thugees and deserters. I want you and the 14th Sikh Special Action Company to eliminate this threat."
"Yes Colonel sahib."
"There is one problem Subedar. Those idiots . . . um, The Sergeants Three and the Regimental beastie, Gungee Din may be trapped there looking for gold, a mysterious map or who knows what."
"Sahib?"
"At all costs the Mad Guru must be destroyed!"
This is going to be a big game with 4 players: One commanding the 14th Sikh Special Action Company (SSAC), one The Mad Guru, one playing The Sergeants Three and Gunga Din and surprise: one player controlling the devious Fah Lo Suee, the daughter of Fu Manchu with elements of the Si-Fan Tong. Oh and did I mention there was a tiger and poisonous cobra too?
Fah Lo Suee and the Si-Fan Tong. Who brought the Tiger?!!
The objectives are fairly straight forward: for the 14th SSAC and The Mad Guru they are operating under the scenario "The Last Man Standing"; in other words, wipe out your nemesis. For the Sergeants Three and Fah Lo Suee with the Si-Fan Tong the objective is to get the treasure token off the board.
The 14th SSAC.
The Mad Guru and his followers.
Gunga Din and The Sergeants Three! Note: The Sefgeant's Three special leader rule will not be in effect at the start of the game as a Subedar outranks a British NCO.
The terrain and the initial set-up.
"Now you're all under arrest. Her Majesty's very touchy about having her subjects strangled. Let the game commence!"
Next:
1. The initial moves.
2. The Indian deserters are pretty tough!
3. Cobra? What Cobra?
4. Gotta love those sniper rifles . . . and arc rifles . . . and congreve rocket launchers.
5. Dang thugee swords!
