For this game, the columns of Ujuwa and Mary, advance in the jungle, and arrive in a sector containing statuette remains. For Mary these are objects worthy of the British Museum, for Ujuwa it is essential to his ritual. There are therefore two statuettes to reconstitute from three pieces each represented by green objective token placed in the 6 dangerous terrains; these pieces earn points of victories increased if a statuette is complete. Finally 4 blocking terrain can bring back discoveries by being in contact with them (or curses!)
Deployment, Mary top right corner, Ujuwa bottom right corner:
During the first three turns, it's a race for thestatuettes pieces, the kirangozi Kiva and the champion Momba, lead their groups quickly into the heart of the jungle in a kind of blitzkrieg
The kirangozi knows this jungle perfectly and finds new paths that allow him to get his hands on two pieces in record time
Mary accompanied by young warriors tries a daring ambush on warriors who had just discovered a piece of statuette, she comes out victorious from this fight (we do not really know how!) and takes the opportunity to take the piece of statuette during the retreat of the warriors .
.
Quickly Sir Mortimer arrives in reinforcement with the adventurers
Momba and his young warriors frustrated at having their piece of statuette stolen:
Mary's ruga-rugas closing the column, are caught under fire from the archers of Ujuwa, who are well hidden in the jungle
Ujuwa goes through a masterful ritual of the buffalo, imposing a lot of stress on the ruga-rugas but they make with a masterful rallying
Suddenly, with screams and a growl, a leopard has just appeared and one of the young warriors serves as lunch
It is starting to get difficult for the groups of Ujuwas, Mary has collected 4 pieces (and enough to make a complete statuette) and her troops are regrouping around her
The archers and a group of pygmies try to weaken the opponent:
Sir Mortimer's trained askaris intervene to clear the things. Only moment of glory on the side of Ujuwa, the champion Momba, ashamed of his previous defeat, launches a lightning charge and annihilated the trained askaris and Sir Mortimer
Ujuwa finds himself exhausted after all the rituals he casst and the shots he suffers. This cursed leopard stealthily moves to another area, and eats one of Ujuwa's scouts.
The leopard moves again and attacks the ruga-rugas who had tried to dislodge the archers who had been harassing them for a while; and against all odds they kill the leopard and win the game's hunting trophy.
Mary continues on his way through the jungle, Sir Mortimer comes out of his wounds without any consequences. but one of the bearer is dead.
Champion Momba, become poorly, and my sacred warrior is dead. Fortunately Ujuwa decides to continue his journey through the villages, he recruits a replacement for his sacred warrior.
Chief M'otowanfa will come back to restore order in Ujuwa's column after two absences and two defeats (I tested the champion, although he was very effective during the first 2 turns due to his effect on the movements, it remains difficult to be effective in the following turns with the list of groups imposed by the campaign.
