Breaking News: Russian troops invade Baltic states
« on: May 28, 2012, 04:50:04 PM »


Following a rapid deterioration of the situation on the Kaliningrad enclave, it seems that Russian troops invaded the Baltic states, trying to safeguard their interest by force. NATO seems caught of guard. Rumors say that some rapid deployment forces, mostly US, have been deployed to try to slow down the Russians while rounding up heavier units.

Your club is the greatest.
Another outstanding game.
Just love what you have done.
Maybe it will get me restarted on my modern stuff.
Could you please tell me the number of figures that were used in the game?

There is more figures on the pictures that on the actual game.

For a quick game and to be able to play several games during the show, we had

US: 2 team of 4 Marines, a Javelin team, a Sniper team and one Bradley AIFV
Russian: 3 team of 6, 2 x T72 tank, 1 x T80, 3 AIFV (1 BMP1, 1 BMP2, 1 BMP3)

The Russian forces needed to get as many forces as possible trough the city.
The US forces needed to incapacitate as many Russian forces as possible.

The US forces won all the games...

Regards,
Christian

The pictures in that blog blow my mind (and also reinforce my thought to buy some of the Empress Russians ---- Red Star or whatever they are).  Fantastic!
