A Quick Update On "Soldiers: In Africa" Game

[@harrobosma8650]

Thanks for posting, super interesting! Leo is grounded😅

[@Nangwaya]

Thanks!
Let's be honest, I should have known better to play on the floor.
Leo hardly every goes up there, and I was absorbed in the game, didn't see him come in, then he plopped right down on the map.
I cursed, and he bolted, causing even more counter mayhem!

Evening. Cold tonight.
River? Crocs? Hippos?

[@Nangwaya]

Finally, you get some respite from the heat.
Yes, that would be interesting, adding cridders to the tactical game, especially since that was an issue, for that conflict.
Neat!

Do you have 2 copies of Spence & Gabel Tannenburg? Is one of those Print-n-Play?

[@Nangwaya]

I have two copies one from Spence and Gabel and the other from Excalibre, then scanned in the rules and map, then made several copies.
