With this call the officers of the Schutztruppe in German East Africa rallied and encouraged their askari in the defense of their country during the First World War. This small force, whose strength never exceeded 3,000 white and 12,000 black soldiers (askari), was opposed by some 300,000 men (150,000 at any one time), comprising British, Indian, Rhodesian, Nigerian, Gold Coast, South African, Belgian and Portuguese troops. Led by Major-General Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck, the Schutztruppe fought within its own home territory for the first three years of the war. During the final year von Lettow-Vorbeck transferred his resistance to Portuguese East Africa and trekked south to within 60 km of Quelimane. He reappeared in Northern Rhodesia in November, 1918, and that is where news of the general armistice that ended the war reached him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith more than 20 published designs including many on relatively obscure topics, Dennis Bishop delivers a compelling game experience and intriguing look at the East African Guerrilla war, 1914-1918. Forces represent the German, British, South African, Portuguese, and Belgian combatants. Special rules provide a game that is highly-playable yet rich in historical detail featuring weather effects, supply and supply depots, replacements, provisional reinforcements, rail movement, naval transport, naval battle, amphibious assault, aircraft, blockade runners, garrisons, German retreat movement, Allied ambush, infiltration movement, land and naval reaction, artillery bombardment, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Information:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComplexity: 6 out of 10\u003cbr\u003eSolitaire Suitability: 8 out of 10 (no hidden units)\u003cbr\u003eTime Scale: 1 month per turn\u003cbr\u003eMap Scale: 30 miles per hex\u003cbr\u003eUnit Scale: Divisions\u003cbr\u003ePlayers: one to two, best with two\u003cbr\u003ePlaying Time: 3-4 hours\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e—description from the publisher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Compass Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41736604057651,"sku":"CPA1087","price":74.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic4486185.jpg?v=1708483827"},{"product_id":"the-battle-of-tanga-1914-minor-damage","title":"The Battle of Tanga 1914 (Minor Damage)","description":"\u003ctable padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/collections\/dennis-bishop\"\u003eDennis Bishop\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/collections\/andrew-preziosi\"\u003eAndrew Preziosi\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/collections\/all\/legion-wargames-llc\"\u003eLegion Wargames LLC\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e360 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e16332\/battle-tanga-1914\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/16332\/battle-tanga-1914\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThe Battle of Tanga was the first major movement by Britain during World War 1 against the German East Africa colony.
