Battle of Krasnik - August 1914
« on: October 24, 2015, 12:14:31 PM »
Shawn Taylor is preparing a new supplement for Great War Spearhead. Entitled 'Summer Harvest', it covers the earliest battles on the Eastern Front in 1914. The Battle of Krasnik took place in southern Poland and involved a series of engagements between the Russian and Austro-Hungarian armies. We replayed one of the engagements as a demonstration game for the SELWG Show in South London. The AAR and photos can be seen here.

This is the table set up:



And here is an example of the action as it unfolded:

Thank you. I like to demonstrate the scale of battles in WW1. 6mm really helps in this regard. Plus it was a great day out with my sons!
