The SHRINE
Scenario Background:
193X. Somewhere in Central africa. Belgian Congo."The Ancestors told us that the golden statue was a gift from our Queen Goddess that lives in the deep of the jungle and we must respect it, because one day she will return."
So I said to the white old man. Why he is so curious about our traditions? :? I don't trust these white men, especially when they are armed. :( Most of our men are away, for hunting, so I'm happy to answer to their boring questions... if this is all they want. :-X
He seem worried now... oh! other white men are coming? I hope they will not begin a fight there! :o
Capitan Littorio was surprised and annoyed:
The Force Publique? Here?! :o
Splendido! (Wonderful) :-[ This expedition is becoming increasingly crowded, and I was hoping that the Bakers were the only obstacle to overcome. So be it! Comrades, attack these belgians! >:(
Lord Baker was annoyed too:
Fine! My old "friend" Professor Godart is here! :? I suppose he is trying again to steal my archaeological discoveries! :-[ Oh... and there are our new fascist friends too, of course... :I
The scenario is a simple "smash and grab" with bystanders.
