Great looking game Phil and it sounds hard fought. I suspect that Speckled Jim went into the pot.

Excellent looking game! How well did you feel BA works for WW1?

[Phil Robinson]

Lon. Oh yes and the Flanders Pigeon Murderer will be found and duly punished🙂

James. They work reasonably well with the Gajo Games mods,more so than they do for WWII🙂 But really the Great War like the Spanish Civil War needs period specific rules I don't think modifying any WW2 rules really work. I am hopeful that Zero Hour will do that and it would be good if Richard pursued his Great War specific CoC version sometime in the future. Although I enjoy Through the Mud and the Blood immensely, I feel it really needs a person to run it to get the real benefit.

Fly, Speckled Jim, fly! Grand game Phil, you overthink rules sometimes, it's just a game with toys after all.😉

Great scenery either way!

Yes, I too was looking to be "enlightened" as to what the poster thought of it (I was surprised to learn, recently, that Remarque spent almost the entire war as a hospital orderly and merely recorded the musings of patients, rather than publishing his own experiences).

As a dyed in the wool Too Fat Lardies player ("Through the mud and the blood"/CoCking Up Through the mud and the blood") I found it an interesting comparison.

For sure! Glad I wasn’t the only one to make the mistake
