Bezzo - I've built a 45 x 6 foot table to play on in Crete.
Calimero - a mix of Canadians and British all for the Caen area.
Hupp - will do, we play the first game with them towards the end of May, will post up shots as soon as I can.

I've got about 60 Shermans for the Germans to play with! 

The table is 45 x 6 foot, lots of bocage to hide in.  I've made all of the buildings - so there's just a few more feet of bocage to make and finishing off the 100 or so trees I've made.
The boys will get their first outing in May when the first guests arrive to play Normandy and the battle of Crete.

My table at home is 10 x 6 in a garage. Your table is perfectly big enough for medium sized actions, the whole point of having so many soldiers to is make full use of the massive table we've built over in Crete.
Have a look on our website for the size of the table.  Do you get Battlegames?  There's a good shot of a third of the table with Indian Mutiny.  In the next issue of Wargames Illustrated there's a big article about the centre and the table too.  The table is horseshoe shaped around a big pillar, but there's room for another ten foot one edge and about six foot at the other end.  I'm thinking about changing the configuration of the table for next year to give the table more playable depth too.
