A brief AAR of a rather one sided game played yesterday:

Thanks Steve, I have added comments at the blog.
Thanks Paul :). Norm, your Brigade diary entry hopefully sums up what the sacrifice was about!
All part of the plan then Norm ;)
Good scrap...even if there were some lucky (?) dice rolls ?
Cheers - Phil. :)
Let's say above average rolling Phil ;) :D.
Another great small-forces game Steve - thank you for sharing.
The end outcome was probably never in doubt - in fact the 'odd' outcome would have been if the Brits had held out and ended up destroying a lot of the Falange forces.
All that happened is that the collapse occurred sooner than anticipated and the ultimate withdrawal of the remaining Brits across an open field in front of a prepared enemy on their flank, resulting in their final destruction, was pretty 'true-to-life' IMHO.
It is one of the things I really like about BKC (CWC/FWC) is the potential for unpredictable results occasionally - plus the ability of the rules to frustrate the best laid plans of the players, yet still produce a realistic outcome.
Many thanks - I am looking forward to more games in the campaign

I agree Mark. I did expect the plucky Brits to give the Falange a bit more of a bloody nose though, but 'twas not to be.
looking good
