Nice campaign! Those AAR of yours make for some great reading.

Just a quick question. How did you do the bunker entrance?

Thanks guys.

Nice campaign! Those AAR of yours make for some great reading.

Just a quick question. How did you do the bunker entrance?

I bought the following item:
Basicks Terrain - Infantry: Small Missile Silo
(commercial link where I bought it: http://frpgames.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=89300#.Uh1o3j8X6vg) Note: I recall buying it cheaper.

I then painted the ground brown, dry brushed sand and added tall grass (don't remember the brand, it was from a model train shop).
The concrete was German Grey (Valejo), followed by dry brush on Neutral Grey (Valejo) and I added Devlan mud on few areas to simulate oil leaking.

It has a good hatch, a-la "Lost" feeling:

Love your settings and tutorial, but I have to say that real photo up there from the War really rips my heart out.

Hi Supervike,

Thanks for the comments.
I know the picture is heart breaking when you think about it, but it was intended to be in a Zombie context. I wanted to comment earlier and waited until the Incursion Kickstarter ended to avoid bringing noise during the last days.

Cedric,

Thank you for the posts!
I look forward to more.

Post by: Montiboy on September 10, 2013, 10:24:56 AM
Almaric> Thanks!

Pijlie> I stole the idea from Anatoli, and use the markers also as Pin markers for Bolt Action :)
Simple transparent acrylic markers with red paint on them.

Episode 9 is coming.

The scenario will be about German Week 3. The German Heer is defecting due to the zombie apocalypse wreaking havoc in Germany, pushing usually disciplined soldiers to chose between waging war in Normandy beside evil SWD troopers, or heading home and saving their family in the process.

 The scenario will take place at the German base, and the lieutenant will need to gather supplies for the way home as well as soldiers and avoiding being caught by the SWD before they are ready to leave.

Special Rule: Being Caught Event (Heer German caught deserting) with interaction tables.

There may be the first appearance of the Nemesis project and there is 1 T-800 Cougar MenshPanzer.

Here is a view on the rules

The Americans have left their base for a dangerous mission behind the enemy lines.

Their mission: Link up with a special British force, establish a safe zone and plan for the attack. With more than 14 hard trained soldiers, what could possibly go wrong?

Reich of the Thousand Deads: S2E5. Von Evil Strikes Back (AAR)

Von Evil is back.
After the death of Mallory in the SWD Bunker, we learnt that the British scientist was tortured and that she gave the locations of some of the commandos operating in Continental Europe.
With this information, Von Evil has planned an ambush.

Early morning, somewhere in zombified France, a platoon of Gurkhas is unaware of the incoming threat...

Will they survive?
Is their any life possible for those left behind by SWD?

Mallory has reached the Freedom Highway, a vital link for German survivors to flee SWD madness and reach the easternmost Allied citadel in Bastogne. Just before reaching friendly lines, the road is blocked by a mass of wrecked tanks and vehicles. With no possibility to drive through, Mallory and the German survivors have to cross the last patch of terrain on foot.
And they are not alone. SWD troopers are just behind them and want to stop Mallory. Zombies are also in numbers in this no man's land.

Find the result here.

Another thrilling Batrep!
From the photo of the aftermath, it must have been one swell fight.
I wonder, was Malory captured by the SWD again or?
I look forward to more!

There was tough melee against large groups of zombies appearing from the wrecks and surrounding the group. There were 4 bites (no kills), and 2 fatal.
Mallory has been captured, once more.
It seems that recently Mallory always lose at the last minute. He basically stopped activating for several turns, then stunned for several more and finally captured.

Ouch, but how will he escape this time?

I need to blame real life for the delay.

In the devastated city of Antwerp, a group of British para with the new British Steel Heavy Armor are fighting against an offensive of SWD troopers.

The British had to hold the line and prevent the SWD to break the line...

Thank you.

But what about Mallory?  ;)

Mallory was delayed because of that standard wargame.

Scenario is ready (rules and characters). Agreed with you, the earlier, the better.

A new episode.

After the failure of Mallory, the Allied High Command has sent a group of rogue soldiers to save him, the Dirty Half-Dozen.
Will they save Mallory?

Bloody indeed. For some reason, the dice always took the worst options when it comes to SWD.

I believe that Floyd didn`t fare well and maybe Good Man should be too wounded to participate for few episodes at least.
That as much casualties I would like to apply.
