Roger Ramjet and his chums
Fighting for our freedom
All the French and Native guys
Know they cannot beat him

My 28mm Rebels and Patriots games are about to get going, with Ramjet's Rangers now complete.The first game 2d6 rolled was 6-4, "a long way from home."

British Rangers
3 Small units Aggressive Veteran Light Infantry @ 8 points each (Rangers)

Native War Party – fighting for the French
1 Skirmishers that are Sharpshooters @ 6 points (Coureur des Bois)
3 Units Aggressive Natives @ 6 points each (Huron tribe)

SCENARIO J: A LONG WAY FROM HOME

Magwoo, the short sighted Huron has been out on the border raiding with his boys.  The Native Americans are marching back to their camp along a track. Ramjet's Rangers have spotted them and set up for an ambush with a smaller force.  

SET UP

The Abenaki have a 24-point Company. The Rangers have an 18-point Company.
Table size 48" x 48".
The track runs from the NE Zone to the SW Zone through the Central Zone. The remaining gaming board is at least 50% covered in forest, but no forest within 3" of either side of the road.
The Huron place all units on the road from the SW corner of the Central Zone in to the SW Zone. The Rangers then split their  Company in two equal parts, one part deployed in the NW Zone and the other in the SE Zone.

SPECIAL RULES
The Huron units are removed from play when the first model touches any table edge in the NE Zone. These units count as ‘escaped’ for objectives. If one of the Ranger units has to retreat, they always retreat to the closest board edge.

ENDING THE SCENARIO
After turn 10, roll a die and add the turns already played, if the result is 16 or more this was the last turn.

The Game

The back woods

The rangers attack the head of the French and native line of march

And that thar' is good shootin'

With the French weakened the Natives surge forward.

But Lootenant Bucky Barnes is hidden on the flank and he gets four hits

I may not be able to focus my camera properly but that is a great miniature. 
Magwoo is standing on one of the jigsaw joins for the new tabletop here. 
It vanishes unless you actually look for it!

hand to hand on the flank as Bucky makes them pay...

Roger Ramjet he's our Man... just look at that huge cleft chin!

The French break, and the natives follow them off.  Magwoo makes a run for it in totally the wrong direction

The Rangers are left holding the backwoods, and its a victory for Ramjet and his boys...
