Defeat for the German Imperial Forces !

Having been drive off by the RN a few weeks ago, D'astardlee and his men have crossed the border into Imperial German territory in their search for loot. News that an important artifact from the period of Empire of Kitara was being held at a mission station reached them so they set out to recover it for their own profit.

Table at the outset

German Imperial Intelligence got wind of this attempt to steal the artifact, so Wissman himself lead his Askaris and his best technical aparatus stop D'astardlee and his men.

This time however, D'astardlee's men were a more experienced group equipped with Hunting Rifles and this caused Wissman's lightly armoured Askaris problems from the outset.

Entering from the left of the table, they moved quickly to grab the cart containing the artifact and moved it towards the exit. D'astardlee's men moved around the mission (towards the bottom of the picture above) and from there caught the Askaris in a crossfire. Wissman and the Arc weapons went round the top of the table and were very effective once they started shooting, but elsewhere on the table the Askari's were outshot by the range and power of the hunting rifles.

 

Wissman and his surviving troops beat a dejected retreat, made more bitter by the need to send a report back to Berlin explaining the loss of an important artifact.
