WWII Eastern Front - A Sad Day for Fine Art and Antique Furniture

This game became somewhat lopsided when the Soviet T34/76s managed to get the better of a Panther and 3 Panzer IVs to win the tank battle aspect of the game. The German infantry were then forced to 'make a run for it' over open ground without armoured support. This proved to be foolhardy and predictably disastrous, especially when the Russian infantry battalion defending the village was reinforced with yet another infantry battalion in turn three.

There was also a sub plot in which a German general was attempting to flee with his looted fine art and antique furniture, which was stored in a number of trucks. This was assumed to have been lost or destroyed as the trucks were all stuck behind a KO'd Panther which was blocking the road.

Either way, not a great day for the German army, it is fair to say. Nor for collectors of fine art and antique furniture.

French Indian Wars - A Very Watery Scenario

The French, with their Indian allies, had to defend a waterside stockade from an attack by the British and their native allies. Somehow a tribe of "Indians" (that looked more like they were from the Caribbean), managed to annihilate the British Indians with a waterborne rear attack, whilst the French held up the advancing British in an effective fighting withdrawal. The British Regulars spent the whole day marching across the battlefield, not managing to fire a single shot in anger!

Midgard - Byzantines vs Vikings

Another Midgard clash with an army of Byzantines taking on a force of Vikings. The Varangian Guards seemed to barrel through everything, and the Byzantine cavalry won convincingly on their flank, putting the Norsemen to flight.

Napoleonics - A Prussian and Russian Victory

An allied force of Russians and Prussians drove the French from a strong position on high ground. In reality the victory was achieved through the hard work of the Russian infantry, who successfully took the hill, whilst a regiment of Prussian Hussars routed two regiments of poorly deployed French Dragoons. The Prussian infantry, in contrast, just went on some parade ground manoeuvres, managing to avoid firing a single shot in anger.

Age of Sigmar - Ogors vs Stormcast Eternals

A bloody match up between the gluttonous Ogor Mawtribes and the Stormcast Eternals. The Stormcasts won a narrow victory on points. Despite loosing more of their army, the ability to deploy half of their units off table for later deployment, enabled the Stormcasts to appear in the rear of the Ogors, taking hold of their enemy's home objectives.
