Postponed battle

Planned for this weekend but due to family commitments and re-enactment demands has been postponed for a fortnight. The Interwar amendments for Through Mud & Blood will be used and tested for future games.

‘Operation Righteous Fist’-A force from the Anglican League will steal out of the City of York by night on an unguarded route in civilian vehicles. Then they will attack a Royalist road block, aiming to break through quickly and head for their main target deep within Royalist territory.

Part 1 ‘Flash Fire’:
To win the first engagement they should move on to their next target with at least ¾ of their force size intact before Royalist re-enforcements arrive. They must also retain their transport to carry on their long term aim.
For the Royalist’s to win they must destroy the attacking forces, hold them until re-enforcements arrive (5 moves) or push back the assault so that the attackers lose more than ¼ of their force strength.
Secret Orders: One part of the Anglican League force has a secret objective unknown to the rest of the force and must survive intact to carry out this mission at the expense of the rest of the force.

Map brought back to the city by secret means by a local Vicar.
