Battle for Saint Come Du Mont

[Orcs]

Right this is an experiment. I have finally bit the bullet to see if I can post images  Thanks to MMCV's guide.

If it does not work it is me not the guide.

Trying again - I think its worked.

Pre  lockdown I put on a Big Chain of Command game. Sunjester and two other friends Colin and Henry came over.   

This game was  very loosely based on the capture of Saint Comt Du Mont , and an excuse to use the "Dead Mans Corner" building I have. 

We gave the Recce the ability to view over two hedges, based on the idea that they would take more time looking for the enemy than normal troops. All the Germans were hidden with markers showing all points where they might be. Most were dummies' but it got the British being very careful. they did not like crossing the hedges without the recce having checked out the next field first.

This made the Germans risk revealing forces to try and take out the pesky Recce tanks.


The whole table - Not sure why the photo is distorted


The objective - Saint Comt Du Mont

The Tiger waits


The British capture the house at Dead Mans Corner

Now I have managed to do this I may well post some more piccies. - Thanks to MMCV

Seriously nice looking table!

Thank you. Its taken quite a long time of collecting. I could not have done it  without  some very generous friends,  including traders who have customized what they produce for me.

Good stuff

Great table, glad you got the pictures working, hope it leads to many more posted

Great stuff, Mark.

The distorted piccy of the table, looks like the camera has got a VERY wide angle facility...almost akin to using a 'fish eye' lens.
Try taking a piccy outside, with the same setting. If the horizon looks curved....rather than 'straight'....That'll be the answer.

Cheers - Phil.

Will give that a try
I can't remember if I used the phone or my camera for that one. I certainly have not seen it before or since.

The Recce Stuart was made out of the bits left over after making the 3  normal vehicles from the PSC pack, with addition of some .30 cal Mgs from Sergeants mess and some left over tank commanders.
