Aarhus = Denmark, not Norway, surely?

Regardless - beautiful game, thanks for sharing!

looks like a great game Shedman.

The terrain is very well done indeed. 

Though much is taken, much abides; and though
we are not now that strength which in old days
moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are.

Aarhus is in Denmark

We did that last year

Have I pointed to the wrong post?

Me, too!  ;D

Great looking game. Also good to see that the vehicles are not lined up 'shoulder to shoulder' like Horse & Musket era troops (except for the beachhead, of course, where the overcrowding is very plausible, btw) (mind you, it does help that it is in a much smaller scale than some of these larger scale Flames of War games I often see and so it is easier to spread them about. One of the many advantages of 6 & 10mm. :) ).
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Great stuff Alan and some superb terrain on show. As with others, I love the crop circle :)

It's this line at the start of AAR 1 that's got me confused:
"In October 2018 we played out the battle of Aarhus over two days at the Grimsby Wargames Club. This post covers the Southern table on Day One."

I thought that Aarhus was in the middle of our street?


Very nice, but I'm now hankering back to Sir John Hackett and feel a twinge for Chieftains and S-tanks and ... I don't need any more projects.

Thanks for pointing it out

After 40 years of coding I've almost got the hang of paste'n'cut

I blame the 7 hour journey back from Grimsby to Stroud by train including a delightful bus replacement service between Scunthorpe and Sheffield :'( :'( :'( :'(

Good to see the dice is still spun in Grimsby town !  And that Romford, Marsh & Associates (as they were once known) - their heirs and successors, have progressed beyond WW2.   They were renowned for their awesome WW2 exhibition games. 

A good game, and well told. +1 Grimsby  :)
