Battlegroup Overlord - Rückmarsch Rearguard
« on: 15 December 2015, 10:10:04 AM »
Couple of pics from a Battlegroup Overlord scenario I'm testing...

Its one of several for a short campaign set during the Rückmarsch after Normandy. Here British troops enter a French town and are engaged by enemy sniper fire and units of a mobile flak company thrown out as a hasty rearguard...

In the second picture,  what gun is that on the half track is it a 37mm AA or iis that a 50mm AT?

I think these are 20mm minis. And the gun looks like to be AT one.

It's the late war 37mm FlaK on the SWS chassis. And they are 20mm figures indeed.

While Normandy+ really bores me, these are wonderful pictures!  :-*  And I really enjoy Battlegroup a lot as a WW2 game (far better than most others I've played, personal preference).  Just enough realism with fun.  Please do show more as this campaign continues.
