Dropfleet Commander - Daytime Assault

More images of this orbital warfare game which is simple enough to get the hang of easily, but mutli-layered enough to provide an excellent strategic brain-teaser of a wargame.

Fighting the Mahdi in the Desert

Back to the Sudan this evening with a British force being ambushed by some Dervishes. This scenario was from Osprey's 'Men Who Would Be Kings' rules. In both games the Britsh held out and annihalated the waves of Mahdist ambushers

WWII - Early and Late War Games

Two WWII games this evening. One set in the Polish Campaign of 1939 using Rapid Fire! rules, the second a late war game using 'Arc of Fire'. The Arc of Fire rule set hasn't been seen at the club for quite a few years now, but the players seemed to have reminded themselves as to what a decent set of rules they really are.

"Fall Weiss" - Poland, 1939

The Czech built Panzer 35(t) makes an appearance on the battlefield.

Late War with 'Arc of Fire' Rules

Xenos Rampant - Blood for the Blood God

A couple of games of Xenos Rampant - In the first, the Rebels and Troopers (aided by zombies!) gunned down the Khorne Berserkers before they could make contact. In the second, the fury and frenzy of the World Eater charges hit home, slaugtering the enemy with unrivalled butchery and barbarity.

"It matters not whence the blood did flow, only that it flowed".

                           

Cold War Skirmish Action

A playtesting session for an in-house set of rules for small scale skirmish actions set in the Cold War. The game play is influenced by a deck of cards, with d10s for account for chance. The Soviets had to take out a West German Milan team that was causing their tanks some problems, I believe.
