Just tried a game of the great war (plaed it solo, just to get a hang of the rules)

What a bloody affair!



By the end of the game, the germans were pushed into their right section of the board and suffered defeat.


Great game, but i want to mount the units on bases and use casualty markers. Still not sure though, they look good when posing along a trench line!

I find the minis annoyingly dark. I want to make them more visible, but a wash wouldn't work...

The tanks are damn big too (but fully to scale).

Friends at MK have it, so often the assault is going left, but the orders only allow you move your right flank! ;D

I got the base game plus Tanks expansion along with the Kickstarter for Death or Glory (the Pellyploppykneesian War version of Quartermaster General ).

...and then of course I bought some Whippet tanks too... and some British field artillery...

Must actually play the game sometime...

A lighter shade of dry brush may make them more visible.

Yeah, I figured I'd try that - but I do prefer a wash to drybrushing if I'm just accentuating sculpts (I won't be fully painting them).
