Sergeants and Witchdoctors

Well Colonel, learning what the local practitioner did and how he did it was self-defense. The priest, or whatever the locals call him, Witchdoctor doesn't sound right, put hexes on my men. So I learned some of his craft from this local lady I've been keeping company with. Then I hexed the priest right back.

Yes, I think I hexed the priest. Why else would he glow in the dark?


Basically, this is a Weird War II game. The local spellcasters on these South Pacific islands don't like the troops. The boys in uniform (or largely out of uniform both because of the heat and a local mold that ruins clothes) are spending to much time with the local women. Plus they give them gifts! So the spellcasters hex the men.

However, where there is a will... The men have gotten the local women to teach them magic (some of the guys have gotten men to teach them magic, but they keep that on the down low).

Now, without offending the Brass or fouling up the war effort it's a battle of wits and witchery!
