FMA Sheep III: Quest for the Soul of Tom Baa-clay
FMA Skirmish variant

> Brief scenario description

Tom Baa-clay's soul was sold last ECC, and it's up to you to recover
it. Lead your stalwart and reliable followers on a pleasant jaunt through
rural East Africa in 1889. Visit large numbers of charming
natives and experience their quaint customs.  Get a close-up view of
exotic wildlife. Capture the valuable and docile African Killer Sheep. It'll
be a cakewalk....really! Probably absolutely no nuclear weapons or Elder Gods
at all, this time!
[FMASheep is an Extreme event and severe psychological trauma is a
common and expected result of participation. The ECC committee expressly
disclaims any liabililty or responsibility for damages].

> Time slot preference

Saturday night

> Proposed number of players

Eight who rush in where angels fear to tread.

Was that it?  I thought I'd been mind-wiped or something.

We are still in need of additional events. We have some FT scenarios
predesigned and all we need are volunteers willing to run them.

GZG gaming galore! All scheduled events are GZG rules or variant rule sets.

If anyone going to the East Coast Con wants to run some Power Projection
games, I can provide SSDs in PDF format for 'A Good Clean
Fight' in the Escort rules (plays in ~60-90 mins) and also some advice
for playing it at a con.

Let me know, ideally off list.

Cheers,

Thanks, Dom. I should add the Power Projection games to the "offical" games
list for the ECC conventions.

Is someone planning to attend who could run a demonstration game?

And I'm afraid I have to report a drive-by sheeping took place this
evening. I *was* the one driving, but I did not provoke, participate in,
instigate or incite this baabaric act.
