Subject: FMA Pirates (Tom Brown's Africa Days)
I had run across this page and passed it on to a few friends.One of which suggested that I send it to whoever is doing FMA Pirates. As I can't recall who is doing FMAP at the moment, I figure here would be a good spot to get the word out.....) (From page) This is what I am calling my version of Darkest Africa games. I was thinking of why Flashman gets all the publicity. What ever happened to the hero of the book, Tom Brown, himself. He was such a goody-goody fellow, probably married, got a good job in London and lived happily ever after. Or maybe he had a proclivity for a more sporting life. Got into debt gambling, had to get a loan from some shady money lender (perhaps Professor Moriarity), then was caught embezzelling funds from his firm, and so fled to Africa. There he meets up with another Rugby school grad who is making a go of it in Africa http://www-personal.umich.edu/%7Ebeattie/brown.html
