Title: BKC II - The Red Empire Strikes Back
Post by: Albie Bach on 08 December 2016, 11:38:49 AM
Hi all
I've been off the forum circuit for quite a while.

My old, battered copy of BKC II and 10mm wwii figures haven't seen much action for a couple of years but I was inspired by one of Steve J's recent AARs, and a series of recent articles in Miniature Wargames with Battlegames, to dust them off and get them on the table.

I used the first scenario in the series of articles I just mentioned, "Fighting the great Patriotic War one battle at a  time" by Andrew Rolph.
Most figures and models are Pendraken.

Great game and a good looking one too! Nice AAR to go with it.

Looking forward to further adventures on the Eastern Front!

Speaking of loquacious.......I bet no-one else has noticed that Mad Lemmey  overtook 'Sir' to the number one posting spot, quite a while ago.

Well done, Will.  :)......You should be the first to know what the next 'promotion' is.
What could come after Field Marshall ?

Cheers - Phil

I don't think you should be embarrassed, Will....Just shows how completely over-worked Leon has been over the last year !
