Ongoing troubles at the Khyber

-A great day out in Covid times-

A fresh table setup with a load of plastics in their maiden battle. 

The men who would be king ruleset used in a iconic colonial setting: Pathans and Afghan regulars cross a British Naval detachment in the ‘Just passing by’ scenario no:1.

 Playmobil meets Armies in Plastic.

The scenario objective is to earn (more) points by bringing units over half strenght to the other table edge (lengthwise). Extra points for extinguised  units or their leaders. 

What seems like a simple setup can squeeze players into  a complex game of doubt and consideration.

How simple things can become complicated when opponents start ‘popping’ each other.
