We spent last weekend fighting the 1985 Soviet invasion of Norway in 6mm using Cold War commander at the excellent Grimsby club

Great looking games and some interesting forces :)
Wonderful !!
I love the cropcircle 'tile'. :)
Cheers - Phil
Aarhus = Denmark, not Norway, surely?
Regardless - beautiful game, thanks for sharing!
Chris
looks like a great game Shedman.
The terrain is very well done indeed.

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. :) ).
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."
Superb
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 :)
Yeah this was a really good game and I thoroughly enjoyed myself the company was good and I can't wait until next years bash

Thanks for posting. The terrain in particular is inspiring - well done.
Phil
Really is awesome.
Like FSN makes me want chieftains (and I always want more projects :))
