There were US and German forces versus Imperial Chinese and Boxer irregulars. Here's some view of my troops in action. It was a bloody affair (especially after one of the American commanders decided to charge the village with cavalry- not wise!).
Here Co. M, 6th US blindly charges forward to Shang Loo unaware that hidden in the village are Imperial Chinese infantry supported by artillery.
Here's a close-up of Co. M charging forth...can you say Balaclava? Onward to the village of death!
After the disastrous cavalry charge against the village of Shang Loo, the US commander finally wised up and launched a second assault with a company of the 9th US Infantry to take the village.
