Hiawatha's day at the dead tree stump.


 A group of ten Colonial Rangers are making their way along a forest track towards the stream crossing at the dead tree stump.  They encounter Chief Hiawatha and his war-party, which co-incidentally is of exactly the same size.

The natives (red dice) win initiative
 Skirmishing over the stream the Rangers are, somewhat surprisingly, out-shot by the Indians.

 This is initially a game of long range sniping.  (12cm but that's long range here.)
The rangers try to sneak over the stream


Shooting across the bluff
That Native shooting is pretty good here!

Finally the Ranger Captain fords the stream.  The Indian chief s killed.

The Indians begin to rout

Game over as the Rangers pursue.

The casualty station.  Four Rangers four Indians and three routed Indians.
