The abandoned town... The Action ....

 Continued from the previous post ....

---oXo---

Scharfe and his jagers approached cautiously reaching the edge of the town square...

Attracted by the smells from the bandits cooking, the hungry wolves bound across the square ....
The bandits are beset by the wolfs...
the bandits by the square are just about holding off the wolves....
Scharfe watches the events unfolding in the square ...
The bandits just manage to beat off the wolves (in the process losing a couple of men)....
As the last of the wolves runs away, the bandits see Scharfe and the jagers on the other side of the square 
The jagers open fire ....
and move into the square; the shooting continues...
The bandits come off badly and beat a hasty retreat out of the square ....
and then out of the town ....
and make a break for the forest as the jagers cautiously follow up ....
The jagers head towards the forest,  a couple of the bandits fire at them as they approach ...
The jagers lose sight of the bandits in the forest ....
It looks like Red Jack and his bandits are starting to get away ....
Esme circling round spots them and shouts down to Scharfe where they are ..., the jagers rush forward ...
After a brisk fight in a small clearing, Red Jack and two of his men are surrounded and taken captive ..
Scharfe and his men have captured Red Jack ....

An interesting game. The scouting option from the air is a clever plan. I notice at least one of the Jagers has a double barrelled firearm. Is there a story behind that?
