All,

Mini-Campaign Fight #2
TF Bowie vs FSNL 4th Company

1st Lt Madre-Animral leads the tough Marines of TF Bowie straight east, assaulting the FSNL 4th Company's positions.  This is a simple attack/defend scenario; the Cuban goal is to crush their enemies on the way to the capital, the Communist goal is to hold the ground.


No sooner does the Cuban attack jump off then they run into enemy infantry (far right).


Return fire is intense and Lt Madre-Animral dashes forward under heavy fire to rally the troops!


Stymied on the right, the Cubans try the left, bringing up their LAV-25 and more infantry.


But the Communists are quick to counter!

Next up we have 1st Lt Espinale's TF Hawk attacking the FLA's 2nd Company.

V/R,
Jack

Jack - as entertaining as ever.  Thank you for posting.

Apologies if I am repeating a questions asked earlier - but what is the base mat material you are using ?

Hey, thanks a bunch!

The surface is actually three 24" x 12" particle boards that are flocked and that I foolishly drew a 1" grid on...

Mini-Campaign Fight #3
TF Hawk vs FLA 2nd Company

1st Lt Espinale leads his TF Hawk straight east, assaulting the FLA 2nd Company's positions.  This is a simple attack/defend scenario; the Cuban goal is to crush their enemies on the way to the capital, the Communist goal is to hold the ground.


Free Cuban forces (far left) are rushing headlong into an ambush!


Which is, of course, initiated with an RPG.


What is this, Cuban forces falling back (far left), leaving a burning Chieftain and FV-432 (far right) behind???
