Title: Anzac Cove landings, April 25th 1915
Post by: monk2002uk on February 03, 2018, 08:23:19 PM

I have long wanted to wargame the Anzac Cove landings. It seemed impossible to do from a terrain perspective. Check out the first play test though:

As a taster, here is the first wave on its way to the beaches just before dawn:

More pictures and the end of the story still to come.

Amazing set-up! A very informative write-up as well, great stuff.   :-*

Thanks Mad Lord. I have added the remainder of the photos and descriptions through to the end of the game.

My favourite photo from the game, with the Ottoman 57th Infantry Regiment cresting the ridge above Chunuk Bair:

Here is a photo from the Hammerhead Show. I added labels for the key terrain features.
