I have taken a ww2 zombie apocalypse take on the game as I have plenty of bolt action and zombie models so here we go!
"Sir overflights report what appears to be rags waving from a Farm house. Here" the attendant pointed a location on the map, Capt Daniels scratched his chin,
"Rags waving? Could be anything"
"Yes sir but on another flypast people were spotted. That was 3 days ago."
Captain Daniels lent back in his chair,
"Let's hope they are still alive. We have to commit at some point let's do it. Send the go order to the volunteers". The attendant hurried out map in hand.
Captain Daniels stood and watched the half track unload the survivors. Tired, shell shocked and looking thoroughly exhausted they still clung to the 6 men who had rescued them.
Captain Daniels shuddered thinking what they had seen and gone through. His eyes moved to stretcher bearers taking a soldier from the half track and whisking him away.
His adjutant walks over,
"9 survivors Sir. A tremendous success." Daniels nodded,
"Casualties?" he replied,
"just the one Private Hughes but he should be OK in 2 or 3 days. Pvt Sharp dragged him all the way back to the half track. Extraordinary effort."
"Impressive, see he gets a few extra tots of rum. I'll try for a medal but with how things are going we have bigger things to deal with. Let's see who else we can help".
Really enjoyed that game have to say. Pvt Hughes rolled a medical evac so I decided Pvt Sharp would have dragged him all the way back (that would explain his terrible shooting).
Hope you enjoyed it to!
I say, absolutely tip top, what?
