    Description

    On April 30, 1863, 3rd Company, 1st Battalion of the Legion Etrangere fought hordes of Mexican Regulars at the Battle of Camerone.
    They Lost.
    But in losing they created the legend of Camerone, of single-minded dedication to the cause, even in the face of insurmountable odds.
    Camerone Day is celebrated by the Legion every April 30.

    In celebration of the 152nd anniversary, Pulp Action Library is bringing out The Wooden Hand of Captain Danjou, a game about grit, determination, and terrible accents.
    The players take on the personae of the French characters, and have all the odds stacked in their favor except one - there are too many Mexicans.

    The idea is not to survive, but to die in the best way possible!
