Calais 1940, a Battlegroup Blitzkrieg battle report

Outskirts of Calais, France, May 24th, 1940. Late afternoon.
German forces of the 10th Panzer Division try to close in with the belaguered defenders of Calais.
Mixed forces from 3rd RTR and the 2nd Battalion King's Royal Rifle Corps (The 60th) try to stop them.



This a Blitzkrieg small platoon-level game (420 points each). I met up with my friend Alejandro "Moncha" Moncy on a wednesday morning, at 9am, and with all day available, decided to play this scenario 2 times, switching sides for more fun.

Hope you like it!

Best Regards,

Excellent report - nice looking gaming mat, buildings and figures - I also use the battle group rules and enjoy how they give different outcome to games - they are not predictable which greatly adds to the enjoyment and suspense of the game
