Hi

I've just been working for some pics in order to continue the battle report, so I thought I'd wake You up a bit 

what do You think?

[Ignatieff]

Bloody good shots!

thx a lot

I am a bit busy right now with the rest of the pics and my daily life, but I promise there will be a completely revised complete game report with lots of pictures.

we managed to game 4 rounds of T&T in a total of 6 hours (stretched over 2 dates) and reached a satisfying conclusion where the germans managed to take the electrical plant, while the estonians and british also reached their objective to hold the train station inspite of being numerically outgunned, so it was actually a draw.  Maybe there will be some follow-up in the future, with the Iron Brigade being besieged in the plant.
My biggest surprise was that the armoured train did not perform as invincible as I originally feared, allthough being armed with 2 field guns, 8 lMG and a big squad of revolutionary sailors. It got one turret and 3 MG knocked out in the first turn on the table.
The engineer did not even manage to pull the break for 2 turns, so there would have probably been a spectacular derailing!

Meanwhile there is my photobucket with the pictures of 23 train components in close shot
