Carnage off New Guernsey: AAP press

The Destroyers DD 16 and DD19 from Masabé were caught off the coast of New Guernsey by a strong air contingent from Zevonia, supported by a detached flight of Dulocian Lansens. Though the two destroyers were escorted by a pair of F100s from Masabé and two NG Hunters the attacking air craft swept the CAP aside. Zevonian Skyraiders waded through heavy but inaccurate flak to attack with rockets. These attempts missed but as the fighter defence had been swept aside the Zevonian and Dulocain aircraft strafed DD 16 until it started to burn. Munitions were exploding and the destroyer was left dead in the water. Later it is believed to have been towed into Asquithville on the NG coast.
The Masabé President has declared the attack on its navy as a virtual declaration of war and has vowed that his country will retaliate with all its might.
Lieutenant Zeke Zwolo from Duloc score three kills in the swirling combat and his been recommended for his country’s highest award, the Golden Elephant Medal of Bravery.

Initial commodities for trade were bananas, coconuts, sugar and spices. 1750 - Because of population expansion at the EITC Botungo Bay trading post, a charter was granted to found a city and the name was changed to New Cholmondeley (in honour of Sir Humphrey's birth place). 1799 - The first coffee crop was planted, which would eventually lead to greater wealth generated in the colony. 19th Century 1808 - During the Napoleonic Wars, French privateers sought to wreak havoc on maritime trade along the eastern coast of Imagiafrica. One French ship, the "Blaireau en Colère", ran aground just south of New Cholmondeley. The crew was captured by the local militia. The French sailors must have enjoyed their captivity, describing it as "rather pleasant". Many stayed,...

WELCOME TO IMAGIAFRICA Bush Wars at the Nunawading Wargames Association had its genesis back in 2014 when I and Cameron Dickson discussed the possibility of running a wargame based on the movie "The Wild Geese". The concept plodded along with both of us purchasing some figures and models that would later serve as the components for the Wild Geese game. In late 2016, there seemed to be renewed interest and by January, 2017, the entire concept exploded onto the NWA scene as the fictitious continent of Imagiafrica was created with equally fictitious countries emerging militarily, politically and geographically. After a year's worth of posting on the NWA Facebook Group page, this Blog was set up to free up space on Facebook and to allow for some more entertaining posts to be shown to the world. The original guidelines are basic - keep it cheap and keep it fun! It was never a project that should cost an arm and a leg. Initially it was suggested, to keep it cheap, to bu...
