Scrapjacks at Sunjester's. An interesting co&op survival system, set in ruined spaceships...
Report in Batreos

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Rapid fire at Elton - 42 in Western Desert, Italian (me) victory. I suspect due to having more tanks.

BKCII set during Fall Rot, British vs Germans.

Hungary 1849: the battle of Debrecen (BBB rules).

Pleased with this as it was a scenario I bashed out on a 3-day deadline and produced a good game, despite not looking promising (historically, the Hungarian corps commander made an unwise decision to make stand despite facing 5:1 odds).

WWII: my first ever game of Chain of Command.
Brits vs Germans in Normandy.
I wisely chose to join Justin on the German side.
Leigh's poor old Brits didn't have the numerical superiority to crack our defence. Good fun though.

Just two fantasy games this week, Song of Blades and Heroes and Midgard Heroic Battles.

More Armoured Clash - Sultanate vs Enlightened VSF fun - portal shenanigans vs stompy mars tripods. Fairly small 2 player game.

Midgard Saxon vs Viking historical. The scenario was based on Bernard Cornwell's Last Kingdom novel, I almost got Utred  killed (which would have spoiled the sequel!).

[Steve J]

Honours of War, played solo, set circa 1760 near to Berlin.

[Chris Pringle]

Napoleonics: Albuera (BBB).
Should it count as more than one if it was a particularly good game? This was a cracker.

I don't normally post here, but last weekend I took my Peninsular armies out for a pair of battles.

Franco-Confederation on the left; Anglo Portuguese on the right.

The Portuguese. Two brigades of infantry, two batteries and a small cavalry regiment. Daddy Hill oversees from beside the church.

The British: Two brigades of infantry, plus the 5/60th; one Dragoon and one Light dragoon regiment and two artillery batteries.

Glad you made an exception this time. Nice to see your good-looking armies in action.
