Thanks David  ;)
Can BATTLE HONOURS italians be mixed with BAM italians ?
"The enemy? His sense of duty was no less than yours, I deem. You wonder what his name is, where he came from. And if he was really evil at heart. What lies or threats led him on this long march from home. If he would not rather have stayed there ... in peace. War will make corpses of us all."

It was a great looking game David, infinitely better in the flesh! Good to put a face to the name too. :)

I'll post up my pics when I get chance, but I doubt they're any better than the ones already up here.

Thanks Jim
The day started 3am, yes got it wrong :?
The show was good as in the the load of questions i was asked about the game.
I could not get anybody to try the game :( most were only there for a short time and had loads of buying to do.
Shame the game would have been great fun.

Anyway, here's my amateurish pics of the layout...

Saw the game but didn't get a chance to talk.
Would have cheerfully played it given a chance, we were there most of the day.

Its a shame no body played, hope you got a chance to role this table out for another go.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

It is a 28mm display
Italians are Bolt action figures, which i got loads just before they were taken off the market :D :-[
Italian Tanks are Army group north miniatures AGN-IT001 - M13/40 Medium Tank
Greeks are Burns miniatures.
Shame i don't have the display anymore.
I was going to try Bolt action rules for my greeks and italians, but need to work out list for them first. since they will be the last to be released in the army list.
Bolt action did say at a show in july, that they would have the Italians rerelease SOON and before the end of the year.
