WWII skirmish scenarios
« on: 18 February 2022, 02:41:17 AM »
All,
      I play mostly solo, and use One Hour Skirmish Wargames for rules.  Can anyone point me to a source of preferably free scenarios for squad level actions in ETO?

I don't know any sources, but actions involving just a squad are going to be quite rare.only so much you can do with patrol encounters Id have thought.
Probably more likely for small groups in street fighting? Arnhem, Stalingrad, or maybe scattered D Day airborne?

Perhaps some inspiration can be found perusing episodes of "Combat!" ?

I agree that "Combat!" could be mined for scenarios. In addition to getting scenario ides, I fond that re-watching them on YouTube was very enjoyable, especially without commercials!
