Chain of Command-Hasty Defence

Game 1

Myself and David (Korrigan) got together Wednesday evening for his first game of Chain of Command. He was keen to play the Belgians which quite a complex platoon to play for his first game. But we gave it a shot. I had planned a 2nd game with Graham on Thursday so it would not require a 2nd set up.

 Game 2

The next night myself and Graham got together and played the same game but with Graham playing the attacking Germans. I had a much less miraculous Support roll with a 5 rather than the 12 that Korrigan had rolled the night before. This was Graham's 6th game of CoC, so he was getting pretty comfortable with the process.

Of course, I completely forgot to take any further photos. 

So as usual it was a lot of fun to play Chain of Command. Korrigan did a nice job in his first game of CoC, taking down my FM where I had to withdraw from the table. Graham also did a quite good job but I was able to get down his FM causing him to withdraw from the table.

So we ended up with 2 wins for the Belgian defenders.....interesting. One thing is for sure though, Early War action is a lot of fun. I think I will have to convince someone to start up a campaign soon!
