Great War in Africa - Homebrew Rules

Apologies upfront -  It's been a while since being on the blog - again. Something about summer activities have been keeping me away for too long. Anyway, just got back from a great game run by one of my buddies - all the figures and terrain are his. He also used his own rules - it had some elements of Arc of Fire, and used D10's for activation rolls, and D6's for movement and firing/combat. D20's were used to track suppression (similar to pins in other games). Not too difficult to pick up and was quite enjoyable. The scenario had the British (and native troops) in a train heading toward the coast with the Germans and their native troops attempting to stop the train and also take over a telegraph station occupied by British native troops. I commanded the British forces and take full responsibility of the train's engine being destroyed by the Germans - as well as having the telegraph station blown up. However, the Germans failed to move off table as it was one of their objectives. So, in essence it was almost a tie in the end. Here are some pictures from the game.

It was great spending time with folks I hadn't seen and gamed with in a while. Until next time, hope you're all having a good summer and staying healthy!
