Our clubs first big all day game.. Not bad going for a bunch of loonies in Ireland! Played out on a 12 x 6 table with 20mm forces...

German Forces

Two German Infantry Regiments with StuG IIIs and two Panther companies in support, plus Nebelwerfers.

British Forces

Two Infantry Brigades with two Armoured Regiments, Recce companies, Anti-Tank Companies, two full Artillery Regiments and a Typhoon Squadron in support!

excellent game report. :)

I don't know why but all Game Reports in 'Comic Vision' look better.

One of the best AAR's I have seen.  Everything looked great.

Great stuff. Very dramatic. Must have been difficult to keep track of all the models.

Wow, those are some beautiful models. I really like the mini-diorama bases like that German mortar team.

A truly magnificent combination of models, bases, boards and report.

They do, don't they? It's strange how compelling they are in this format.
