Title: WWII Action In North Africa
Post by: pops on 05 October 2023, 05:15:39 PM

Tough going for the Brits and Allies Germans and Italians have bogged them done and are devastating them with accurate mortar fire and some big ass tanks. Turn 5 is upcoming – can the Brits push through or is it all over?

Now that’s a proper sized table (or at least heading that way). Thank you for posting, a very impressive tabletop. What rules are/were you using?

Thanks Andrew,

Was at one of our two weekly games.  Was playing at a friends house  - his table, terrain, figs,etc.  Rules were: Battle ground Easy Eighths.

Angelo is good at setting up some nice terrain on the table.  We fluctuate between 6  to 10 guys playing 2x per week.

Thank you for your kind words.

All the best,

Frank

Thank you Frank. I wish I lived near you :D I need a group like this is my life. I don’t think I’ve heard of the rules but you’ve given me something to investigate whilst insomnia and meds are denying me sleep.

Thank you, keep up the good work!

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your interest.  I just happened to find  link to the rules. I try to update TheWarGamesBlog.com at least once per week.

I hope you enjoy the rules.  We use them for all of our WWII games

Frank thank you for the link. The logo seems familiar. One of the best things about historicals is the range and variety of rulesets available (as I definitely spend more time reading than playing currently) and I’m always interested in seeing different approaches.
