Inspired by Pier's earlier post here are some pics of the Rapid Fire game I played with Jon in the week. Similiar to Pier's our game was based on a scenario from the 3rd RF supplement, Narwa 1944. In fact it is Pier's reports that has got me fired up for WWII games again.

Fighting rages around the ruined farm
The Soviet objective was to get a tank and a company of eight infantry to block the road by turn ten. By turn nine it was obvious that this could not be achieved giving a German win, nothing amiss with Jon's tactical plan he just did not get the rub of the dice for the majority of the game, but as you can see it was a hard fought battle.

looks deadly!
Was thinking of trying Narwa with KGN soon.

Its a great scenario, I have played it three time now once in its intended form and now twice with slight alteration of the tanks and support involved.

Thanks Phil for your photos and report. The tanks certainly got in close to one another. I love the terrain too.
Cheers,
Helen
