Duke Speedy of Leighton

BKC IV teaching game for two friends.
+You know the drill, see one, do one, teach one) big win for me as Germans, rematch demanded for next week as they enjoyed it so much.
Went well over the 8 turn limit (but to be honest, no one killed anything for the first few turns).

Back in the Western Desert for more WW2 action tonight.
Germans sent home with a bloody nose but my plucky Brits (even if the Armoured Commander did blunder BEFORE reaching the table)!

Two games to report this week.

Taiping Rebellion: 2nd Battle of Hukou (BBB rules).
Second outing using revised scenario. 15mm figures.
A close and exciting game. Full AAR here:

WWII: "Panzer Recon: Gembloux I". (Arc of Fire II rules in preparation.)
This was a remote game with Scott Fisher of SkirmishCampaigns.
The scenario is from one of his SkirmishCampaigns scenario books. We may well fight the 3-scenario mini-campaign.
Playing via Discord isn't the same as being together around a table, but as he is in the US and hadn't had a game for five weeks it seemed like a good idea. Good fun.
