Meanwhile …. I have modified the Charlie Foxtrot Bank into a Cop Shop - then upgraded it for service in Northern Ireland .

The tower is there ( not fixed ) because it’s going to be a combined manned Army and RUC Post that’ll feature in my next game .

‘COCing the Cop Shop a ‘ 28mm Operation Banner wargame ‘:

Set in Northern Ireland 1980 the Intel indicates a likely attack on a joint Army : RUC post.

As an additional asset a 4 man team of 22 SAS detached from 14 Int Coy are set up in a hide in the factory overlooking the post. Alpha Three Zero is air patrolling the area with comms linked to ground units .

The IRA player begins with an RPG team , motorised in a Landrover , deploying and racing straight towards the objective.,from the tower the sentry in stag opens up with a GPMG and kills the two man team , the driver survives.

Wide flanking moves sees two ASU’s move towards the flats overlooking the target. Another deploys from the coal yard and us engaged by the SAS Team.

The reserve units which are motorised moves up but is delayed by a roadside bomb cratering tbd road . Moving left to motor up the centre a mob tries to delay them but with little success.

A final gun battle around the police station and coach station sees things cone down to the wire but the Provos morale slips to zero as casualties mount - end of mission!

I spent some time in one of those police stations. Guarding it I might add, not as a customer! I've stayed in better places.
