You are the scouts of one of the first troops. Your Country (England) is in war. Your troop leader has discoverred the secret plans of your enemies: they want to make an ambush to Lord Baden-Powell. So your troop leader charges two patrols (you are in one of these) to go and warn B.P.

Your troop leader gives you:

• 1 map with the azimuth path
• 20 poles, 100 short ropes and 2 camouflaged sheets;
• 2 kompasses, 2 squares, 1 protractor, 1 pencil, 1 rubber, sheets.

Prepare a scheem where you'll annote your will power (W), now 15, your weariness (S), now 0, and your time (T), now 15. During the adventure you'll lose or acquire some of this scores. -1TP means that you must subtract 1 point to the time, +2SP means that you must add 1 to the weariness, and so on. When the will power or the time will arrive to 0, or the weariness will arrive to 15, you can't continue: you must come back and click here. Moreover annotate what your troop leader has given you, and all the object you take or leave. Remember: always trace your path on the map.

IMPORTANT notice: If you have NOT read the instruction page, DO IT NOW: only there you can get the map and the azimuth path. Click here.

Hurry up! B.P. is in danger! Leave!!!

You leave. You have been walking for 500 meters, when you feel to be followed. What do you do?

You can't do anything else. What's the "basic" shape of the frame you use to build up the turret?

Searching and searching, you find only a piece of sheet. It contents:

ATTACK TO THE ENGLISH ARMY:

When you come back to the troop, you find a chief that says: "You still don't know the Morse code! You're lucky: I have forgotten one thing here; otherwhise you wouldn't have found us!"
Following him, you arrive at Wolfibus.

Go to 48.

With great surprise, back to the troop you find B.P. He explains you that all what happened was a fictitious activity, a test for you.
Then he shows you the correct path:

• If you think to have done the correct choices, go to 50 to verify them
• If you want to start it again (even if you already know the end) go to 1

B.P. says: "At the end of the azimuth path, you should have been at Mound Ront. From there, you should have taken the direction of North and, a few before the E13, you should have found a sign which means: take the direction not indicated by the arrow. Turning right you should have found another sign, whose meaning is: look for a message at x footsteps in the arrow's direction. The message gave the coordinates of Scrooge McDuff, and here you should have used a newspaper on a k-way to spend the night. The "Pinus mugo" is a low tree which isn't higher than 3 meters; then you should have built a turret with triangular frames; and the message you should have received said to go to Wolfibus".

• If you took a little sheet during the adventure, give it to B.P. and go to 3.
