HORRIBLE CARNAGE AT "DUJBEEKI"!!!

PAGE 3

It was at this point that the battle rose in intensity to such a fierce exchange that myself and my photographer were forced to take cover!  There was reported however much charging and countercharging with horrendous casualties on both sides.  Despite his questionable status on the battlefield Dr. Watson and Sherlock Holmes were seen on several occasions to be moving through the ranks of wounded giving what aid they could.  If this is in fact true we do give them a tip of the hat.  In the smoke and haze by photographer and I became disoriented and after a bit found ourselves in the midst of the Arab village!  We were about to seek shelter in one of the Arab buildings when a man appeared in the doorway.  He gave us a stern look, stole two oranges from a basket at the doorway and hurried off in the direction of the harbor.  Later at Camp I was told by another reporter that this undoubtedly was the great English mathematician Professor Moriarty.  One can only wonder as to his purpose in this part of Africa.

Faithfully reported as it happened for you,

This was my first attempt at running a game at the Bengal club and the Bengal club's first attempt to play gaslight.  I believe it was a good experience for all.  I as usual attempted to make too grandiose a game.  However the membership all being experienced gamers picked up quickly on the rules, even the ones I made upon the spot and turned the evening into a pleasant time.  I look forward to doing another gaslight game at the club.  Hopefully the membership will now develop some contraptions of their own and beat the pulp out of me.
