6 months of the year gone and very few distractions so far (ok so a few figures for Planet of the Apes), time to turn my attention to the Napoleon in Egypt Project.
I get more done with a target to aim for, so with that in mind thought I would kick off a number of linked games using the Too Fat Lardies excellent Sharp Practice Rules.
I recently picked up the supplement from the TFL's The Compleat Fondler a series of 18 linked scenario's based on and inspired by the Sharpe Series, they are a cracking read and full of great scenario's to play through, however lacking the suitable figures and terrain I thought I would "reimagine" the scenario's for the French in Egypt.
I give you the Adventures of Ensign Claude Canard and his Friend and mentor Ensign CĂ´telettes de Mouton of the French Sloop "Le Vendeen" a paradogy of all things Sharpe and Hornblower.
Ensign Claude Canard of the "Le Vendeen"
Every hero needs a side kick. Ensign CĂ´telettes de Mouton
Who knows what adventures will take place.....
Coming Soon
Episode One - "Scaling New Heights" - Canard's First outing.
Another great addition to an interesting and fun project. Warm Regards, Dean

Very nice Stu. I look forward to reading/seeing their adventures!
ReplyDeleteVery keen to see this campaign develop too Stu. Good luck - it can be challenging to bring these sorts of campaigns to life.

You're not wrong Frank, especially when he goes and get's himself killed.... Now that will take a story to get him out of this scrape. As usual it's the less Big men that perform best...
