6mm Velikiye Luki relief game

[mluther]

This was a quick and simple game based on the last ditch effort to relieve Velikiye Luki on Jan 9, 1943. I use the Toofatlardies' I Ain't Been Shot Mum rules and I wanted to try adding Command Cards to the deck ala Sharp Practice (Sharpening Up IABSM) to see if that would give the players a bit more control over their 'plans'. This scenario seemed like a good one to experiment with, especially since I was the defending-pretty well immobilized player. Attacking Germans had 5 Command Cards in the deck and the Soviets 4.
Overall I liked the addition of the Command Cards, unfortunately having new players involved didn't really provide a lot of feedback.

Good looking game - I remember this battle from the V for Victory hex based computer game, from many years ago
