We have played a few games over the last few weeks with 7 days. With a lot of game play under the belt , it’s started to show up some of the areas we think need improvement. Mortars and Artillery need a proper system and we will work one out . Another change is that you cannot rally off all the accumulated morale hits , we will always carry one . It’s been a little too points focussed , so will move over to scenario and actual unit battles . Overall happy with the system it gives a decent game just needs a little house rules. Hopefully there will be an updated version 2 in the wings .
The Soviets race toward the bridge
It was a good excuse to get the extra big bridge completed - this was an e bay purchase of an MDF bridge I found for model railways - it’s a full 2 foot 6 long.
The Soviets didn’t manage to take the bridge - a little too much focus on a helicopter born assault and not enough ground troops .
We added in using hidden deployment for the NATO Dutch and French units .
Gerard blown up by Soviet Paras , though the helicopter had been shot down .
Overall some great gaming has been done .
I have a few items to add to my French battlegroup coming up . Some more Gazelles with 20mm cannon and some AA AMX13s .
Plus there seems to be a good sale price on a few French boxes , these will arrive in due course . Leclerc tanks and some VABs transport and support unit .
