Lots more great pics.  Always nice to see such good looking games.  I do like that hill with the cliffs at the side.

Table was 4ft by 6ft.
We had 4 players and an umpire.
Worked well with the FFOL Bigger Battle rules.

Someone was asking about the hills.
Well they come from Poland. I think the firm are called terrain4games.
Got to be honest, I really wanted some nice mountains and hills for this type of game, ie Back of Beyond.
I bought their big pack of hills and mountains.
Probably the most expensive item of scenery I’ve bought for gaming, but really nice and really effective. Very happy with them.

That's a great looking game. I love your tank movement rules too: bringing a nice level of risk and uncertainty.

Tell me about it.
I owned the tanks, and was about to get my RAC breakdown cover card out.

If Flatpack won't go to the Mountains...
The Mountains must (have) come to Flatpack. ::)

No plans so far, but we haven’t seen much of the local Mountain tribes on the table.

Splendid looking game! Very inspirational. What's the "ground" made out of on your table? It looks like some sort of textured cloth or heavy paper, I'm very curious.
