Very good looking battle.   Looks like the Baltic States/NATO are taking it on the chin so far.  Hopefully, they can stem the Red Tide...

Thank you for the encouragement as usual boys 👍🏻

Yes mate, NATO definitely need to get their finger out and respond in force.

This Saturday’s game will see NATO’s Franco-German Brigade being deployed as the QRF, plus American airpower in support in the form of an Apache and Warthog.

Excellent AAR and love the photos. :-*
Looks like we will see round 2 with the heavy weights fighting it out.

Thank you boys, always great to receive such positive support 👍🏻

It will definitely be a tougher challenge for Russians this Saturday, NATO has some significant airpower to call in as required.

Cold War Heats Up - In the winter of 1999, covert Russian Spetsnaz units sabotage critical communications infrastructure across Lithuania. Home Guard units, hastily send radio pleas for help to NATO’s Rapid Response Command. Operating under Article 5, NATO’s Rapid Response Command deploys the Franco-German Brigade, a highly mobile force trained for multinational operations. The Brigade’s mission is clear: halt the Russian advance, stabilize the area, and prevent further incursion until larger NATO formations arrive.

Tis indeed. The church is particularly impressive. I want something like that myself.

It has some pretty awesome interior details as well, including a pulpit, font, rows of benches and an organ.

I'm with these guys.  Impressive table.  Here's hoping the NATO boys' performance is just as impressive...  ;)

Well beyond my needs, too late and too small to kill Thomas A'Beckett in and the appeal of games based around christenings eludes me. lol  I typically seal my buildings up tight as a drum. If I want to play inside, a floor plan will suffice.

That said, I can see it in other contexts. And it's probably good enough to double as a Christmas display.

My grandparents had a lovely painted and textured tin church that was pretty much in scale, that they picked up in Germany in the 1950s. It all slotted together with clever little dovetail joints, so it could be stored away and had a space on the floor for a small candle. The rising heat from the candle caused the bells in the spire to tinkle.  Windows were a all a coloured cellophane type affair. Wish I'd had dibs on that.

Yes our modelling skills can often come in handy at Christmas.

NATO’s Franco-German Brigade assembled for deployment in the Baltic States, plus US Delta Force and CIA operatives with a Blackhawk helicopter transport and air support assets in the form of an A-10 Warthog and Super Cobra Attack Helicopter.
