A belated battle report!

On Thursday evening James and I had another great game of Chain of Command pitting his Frenchmen against my Germans in a Patrol scenario.

It's been a long time due, but finally a victory for the Frenchmen.

Every time I see one of your games Paul I have this uncontrollable urge to play! Especially after the WorLard day and my first experiences of the CoC version of TTM&TB.

Hopefully we'll have some sort of campaign day at the club in Durham sometime soon [praying hands smiley]

Brilliant looking game

Darrell.

Cheers Darrell

I reckon after we have got Partizan out of the way it will be time to start an 'At the Sharp End' campaign to give our games a bit of a story and to help minimize our casualties.

Thanks for sharing.

Another excellent Battle Report.

You are an inspiration.

Anna, do you do any 28mm WWI wargaming in Colorado? If so, do you know of a group for this or any other players?

I've got a big pile of British and German 28mms all painted and ready to go (I posted photos on here a while ago) but am having a hard time drumming up any interest here in Denver.

Cessna, I'm down in Pueblo, and don't really know anyone anymore.

It's a shame, I'm almost finished w/ 2 sections of 1914 BEF. I just can't get out much right now, because of my health.

Pueblo? Too bad, that's a bit far for a quick game, even if it is WWI! I know a few folks who drive up from the Springs to get a game in, but Pueblo seems awfully far...

If you're ever up in Denver, let me know. These are the 28mms I have painted up, British and German. I had hopes that Warlord would produce a WWI book for Bolt Action, but it looks like they're putting that on hold. I'm still hoping to get my group interested somehow...

Those forces are Awesome!

You never know, if I can get up to Denver, I'd probably be up for 2-3 days, maybe we could get some gaming done.

I got ahold of "Triumph and Tragedy", it seems pretty good for Great War.

That is a great collection of stuff.

Anna,

The best rules by far that i have played for the Late Great War were the Chain of Command hybrid driven version of Through the Mud and the Blood by the Too Fat Lardies:

They're here is you're interested:

Thanx Darrell, those look really good.

The Christmas special even has stuffs for East Africa, and I was just reading about that.

I'm almost done with my Mutton Chop BEF minis, just a few details, touch-ups, and basing to finish.
