Myself and Gabriel got together at the abyss for our monthly Scouts Out game.
The oberstleutnant's favourite pigeon "Prinz" was wounded and fell in no-mans land carrying an important message. German and Newfoundland forces each prepared a nimble squad of hand picked men to reach the avian objective before the enemy or trench rats can get to it. The Newfoundland regiment opted for skill choosing to send many of their best veterans while the Germans opted for speed choosing to employ some of their few remaining cavalry with the men available on hand. The result was a very close game which at many points could have swung either way. Early NFLD advances were thwarted by some well timed german cavalry charges but ultimately Commonwealth marksmanship won the day, successfully shooting the Hun off the objective in the vital moment of the game.
