Game started November 2008 re-enacting the British Indian Army action in Mesopotamia.

Current status : game date is currently August 1915, the British Indian Army has advanced rapidly up the Tigris river and destroyed 3 Ottoman divisions in the process. Having taken the key town of Kut, 2 brigades fought the 37th Ottoman Division at Ctisiphon on August 17th 1915. They then reinforced ready for Ottoman counter-attack when Nureddin hastily mobilised the main forces available in Baghdad in a desperate move.

Simultaneously, there is a raid on the Berlin-Baghdad railway taking place in the Adana (Tarsus mountains) region of the Ottoman empire, cutting re-inforcements to Mesoptomia and the Sinai.
