AAR BATTLE REPORT MISSION 5 weird ww2 DOG SOLDIERS

I played this game with the system I used which was a variation of Ganesha's flying lead, a simple but very fun rule set, and it allowed me to play solo without going crazy. This game is part of the weird ww2 campaign that follows the adventures of Sergeant Reickhart in his fight against the Nazi army in a supernatural Europe.

Episode 1 - Scotland´s doggy weather

Gathered in the camp, while the rain falls, the soldiers tell stories around the fire under a huge military tent that protects them from the water, it is an ancestral thing, telling each other stories of things that have happened to them during the war. At one point, Sergeant Reickhart lights a cigarette with a branch and looking at his men he says:

"This is nothing, boys, the weather in Scotland is worse..."

"Sergeant, aren´t you from Texas?"

"Yes, son, but for me the war started a little earlier. We were sent to a Scottish forest for maneuvers a month before we were sent into the French forests. It was a simple thing. You are released in the middle of nowhere and you have to guide you through the maps to get to the designated points. Easy.

After the jump we met and looked for the point that we had specified in our orders. There we had to stay for two nights and build a small camp with the elements that nature could offer us. after two days we had to advance to another similar point and do the same, and in the end we had to go through the woods to a town where military vehicles would wait for us.

On the night of the first day, we began to hear gunshots... a large number of gunshots... screams pierced the darkness of the night... little by little, less gunshots were heard until there was silence...

The fight must had happened a couple of kilometers from the point where we were ...

My boys looked at me waiting for orders, and I did what I thought I should do ...

We headed in the middle of the night through the worst forests I had ever seen in my life, and after a while of walking anticipating a fight, we found somewhat difficult to understand ... 

In the distance, in a clearing, we saw an allied vehicle, a settled camp, tents, food, weapons, and three gigantic cages ... all splashed with blood everywhere ...

We approached in silence, seeing that there was no one nearby.

Next to some oil drums we found boxes with weapons and ammunition, only that some boxes were different, there were smaller boxes with something like syringes with a greenish liquid and some kind of compressed air rifles besides stacked in boxes.

At another point we found a series of documents and maps. The maps marked the area, the camp we were in right now, and indicated the location of the camp we were ordered to settle, surrounded by a circle and named "bait" ...

It also stated that there was a landing strip with military equipment and a plane within 10 kilometers to evacuate "the captured specimens"

At that moment everything was fucked off... from the nearby forests three gigantic wolves appeared... and I say wolves because I don't know what they were ... they looked like wolves, only thant giant ones, and they ran and jumped on their hindquarters, and the most disturbing thing of all was that they had remains of clothing... human clothing...

The battle that took place there was hard, three of  my men died in that Scottish forest at the hands of those things... by firing evrything we had we managed to hit those things, which ran badly wounded in the forest never to be seen again... I was seriously injured and I had to be held by my companions to save my life.

With those things running through the forest, we had to get out as soon as possible, because they could return, and we did not know if there were more of those things in the forests, so we decided to make our way to the airstrip to flee from that hell"



Episode 2 - Kill the Dog



"On the way to the airstrip we found two small cabins in the middle of the forest, a forest track passed through the houses. We were going to pass by to reach the airstrip when we heard a woman at the door of one of the cabins screaming scared

"Jim !! Jim !!!" she screamed in fear ...

We approached her to prevent her from these beings and to take her with us"

The boys found marks of animal footsteps in the area, not the kind of animal one usually sees, but the kind of animal from which one desperately runs away without looking back.

The girl told us that her name was Mary, that she lived there with her family, and that they had heard very strange noises that night, used as they were to living in the forest alone, those noises worried them, and her family had decided to go to investigate, ordering his father to stay safe at home ...

And according to her, her family must had encountered some type of dangerous being, since they had not returned home, and she was very worried.

At that moment, there were close howls and the noise of running in the forest... we took positions and prepared for the worst...

Corporal Jerry told the girl to get into the house that there were monsters in the forest, that we had already killed several, but that there were still more...

And while we were in your positions, with weapons ready, scanning the nearby darkness while we were seeing nearby movements, I heard something that I would never forget in life ...

The girl began to say "monsters? There are no monsters in the forest ... the townspeople also say that nonsense about the monsters that inhabit this forest, but ... you know one thing ... there are no monsters here ... here is just me and my family ... "

I remember hearing a loud growl behind us, and I swear to you that I swallowed and did not want to look back... I did not want to look back because I knew what I was going to find ...

Joseph was the first to turn around and start screaming...

Where the girl was a few seconds ago... now there was a hugemonster with pieces of her clothes swirling around ...

and just as I saw her, she jumped herself at us as we saw other beings come out of the forest charging at us...

It was Horrible... Joseph died at the hands of one of those beings before we could kill them, and, scared to death, my boys begged me to get them out of there, so we started running towards the airstrip that was marked on the map..."

Episode 3 - The airstrip

Upon arrival at the site we saw military equipment, vehicles, and a cabin where a long-distance radio antenna had been mounted ... there was no airplane, but from the radio of that cabin we could contact the high command to take us from there as soon as possible.

We spread out in two groups, and before we realized, we heard an enormous howl behind us and saw a huge mass of flesh rushing, breaking branches in its way to us...

Another gigantic wolf, this one bigger than any of the ones we had seen, ran towards us as if the spirit of revenge possessed him ... although maybe it was just that ,,,

We opened fire with everything we had knowing that with that size it was difficult not to hit that monster ...

Rogers was killed first ... Avary later ...

But luck was on our side and we managed to hit that being to death, and mortally wounded, run into the woods to die ...

In the cabin we were able to contact the high command, and they sent us a plane to pick us up, to make sure that they did not leave us there, I lied to them and I told them that we had captured a "specimen"...

The story was over. Everybody was silent around the fire. One soldier dared to ask:

"Hey, Sergeant, you are top telling horror stories... how do you make up these stories?"

Sergeant Reickhart spreading his arms and pointing to the darkness around them replied:

"make up? Look around you, soldier, you are in the middle of an authentic horror story ... reality is what is truly scary these days..."
