The Americans have been defeated at Sheboygan. General McIntyre and Captain Patton have managed the keep the retreating American forces from turning into a total rout by force of will, and by exuding hope and assiduity of a final victory against the invaders.

Thank you. I wrote most of that immediately after the last battle for Sheboygan in August. As real writers would say, it wrote itself. I was just waiting for an evening with our group to play it out. I am very happy with Scotty, he was a lot of fun
... "I am afeered that we may have to call off pursuit sirs. The over pressured boilers can only take so much cronachadh, and the wee bairns are beginning to fail running the scunners down. Now there are several of the bastards that are acting glaekit, skyting like they are on ice, we should skelp them before they recover. And there is another one on the ground, those crazy men on their motorized push-bikes have it wrapped up like fly in a spiders web. I think a crowbar is order there, to pry the peely beastie from it's houl so we can ken its googlies."

Thanks. Loved the back story. Great battle. Good special rules. What are those little chits on the tripod bases?

I created those. They have a picture of a Tripod and a number suitably large enough for our aging eyes. They are double sided, so 1 flips to 2, and Weaponry flips to Maneuverability hit. On the human site, which we didn't use in this game is a small tree and a number to represent stealthy movement.
