We made a group order of 8 rulebooks, I received them more then 2 weeks ago (Rich Clarke was great about getting the order to me in the US before the actual release date of March 4). There was a bit of a delay getting it to the club members in Montreal but they were distributed at last Thursday's Club Games Night.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Production quality looks great and you get 2 laminated QRS sheets which were certainly more readable (ie bigger print) than GdA1. Myself and Graham decided to get together at my place and have a test game last Friday. I put together the table and decided to play the Albuera 1811 scenario from the book. </div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7wb5uGgdOO26AnIhQ_yyNJQ6CGdHPcJ830w2IOacnkODMEFWb5PBtTHJXZo5lRPI6Ty2NL08K7RNDby3oXdAizIYcfoeMMfZx1Ai_5JoQ5fBXNPV4xd4fQ1rEtG1Xxgw5vzctM6wHRHcjqyF59OcsiRpNoqgSrFmklym7ZupSp5r7rHfQxoi2Ivke/s3753/IMG_6516.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2277" data-original-width="3753" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7wb5uGgdOO26AnIhQ_yyNJQ6CGdHPcJ830w2IOacnkODMEFWb5PBtTHJXZo5lRPI6Ty2NL08K7RNDby3oXdAizIYcfoeMMfZx1Ai_5JoQ5fBXNPV4xd4fQ1rEtG1Xxgw5vzctM6wHRHcjqyF59OcsiRpNoqgSrFmklym7ZupSp5r7rHfQxoi2Ivke/w400-h243/IMG_6516.jpeg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The terrain, the Anglo-Spanish force commanded by Graham were deployed in the farground, with the 2 Spanish infantry brigades starting on the table.

The French still have an infantry brigade off table as well as a Cavalry brigade.</td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">We got in 5 turns in a little over 2 hours and this is an impressive improvement over the previous version. With both of us being familiar with GdA1, we had a good sense of how the rules generally worked. I had watched the 3rd <a href="https://youtu.be/pCrfcVpZZVo?si=MD1uIEXGWC_Z7pNB">video</a> on Lard TV just before the game and this was quite helpful as a lot of the changes are in the setup and the Command and Control aspect of the game. I made a short list of notes, and I felt quite prepared for the game. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Aside from testing the rules, I was really focussed on reducing the number of markers on the table as well as using a much simpler and less obtrusive method to mark casualties. I had noted that Dave Brown in the demo videos, really just seemed to use 3 markers and I wanted to go with that plan. I felt we were successful in this with having to use just a Hesitant and Faltering Brigade markers as well as the Casualty marker. We will of course need further games to see how this goes.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">In this our first go, the only rate limiting step was putting the troops on the table. Unfortunately there is little you can do about this and at the start Graham had to just put on 2 brigades and myself 3. This took about 10-15 minutes and really there is no way to speed this up. Certainly, the fact that we had a total of 5 brigades off table at the start did speed things up.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I am not going to go into all the details of the changes in this version but I felt without exception they were a great improvement on an already good ruleset. The new Scouting phase in the deployment part of the game was a lot of fun and definitely increased the <b><i>fog of war</i></b>, likewise initiative changes and ADC takings were all simplified but at the same time made the decision process more complicated. Most of all though the basic game mechanics of Charging, Movement, Firing and Combat have now almost disappeared into the background becoming much simpler and thus much quicker to resolve.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Anyway, we only had a couple of hours to play this game but did get 5 turns in. I have left the troops on the table and we hope to complete the game in the next week. A careful perusal of the rulebook over the last this weekend has revealed no errors being made. This was well worth waiting for!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdCibmqXNXMH0uKIqZx5AZRiAmPrS-XH2Ugp5v_7nb3_MNg47NJ46uc5I6igewm-xfy3_Gy2Fx4s6VwZYJjXppdfKyILOCx3NCM8i9AcDLEZo4mY0NTdvjKsC4Vy3Yi1ptrPuXa_HBGdQP1ha99vXcphAngh2hKG0CEANU29lAsbG_kiCaJOajt2Eg/s230/Logo.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="230" data-original-width="230" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdCibmqXNXMH0uKIqZx5AZRiAmPrS-XH2Ugp5v_7nb3_MNg47NJ46uc5I6igewm-xfy3_Gy2Fx4s6VwZYJjXppdfKyILOCx3NCM8i9AcDLEZo4mY0NTdvjKsC4Vy3Yi1ptrPuXa_HBGdQP1ha99vXcphAngh2hKG0CEANU29lAsbG_kiCaJOajt2Eg/w400-h400/Logo.png" width="400" /></a></div></div><p></p>john de terre neuvehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-86466215802849920462024-03-04T20:03:00.001-05:002024-03-06T15:37:58.796-05:00Local and Main Force Viet Cong<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjX57CEndU1GoMkdlhFd5yIJuYcKJi4EudZDqX-iyq4XEgPY1so_LZwlAzHGwHQ-HKgBxTYbzQGazVJtYxbpJpA2Sa9Indhz9gVkRIrAaFwIiLhVGstur1WNvuZuYtgBcT4riglezepXjPs0gbgjZX8i5x88msiXiVYrtD5xQSvLyQvyFb5kHDZUO9X" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="1842" data-original-width="1280" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjX57CEndU1GoMkdlhFd5yIJuYcKJi4EudZDqX-iyq4XEgPY1so_LZwlAzHGwHQ-HKgBxTYbzQGazVJtYxbpJpA2Sa9Indhz9gVkRIrAaFwIiLhVGstur1WNvuZuYtgBcT4riglezepXjPs0gbgjZX8i5x88msiXiVYrtD5xQSvLyQvyFb5kHDZUO9X=w278-h400" width="278" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I have been recently adding to my slowly growing Vietnam 28mm figure collection.

Luis has been playing DA for a while and I have had 3 previous games, so we felt we were all set. We are taking the campaign from the main rulebook but with added rules and characters from Forbidden Powers source book. We pretty well stuck to the RAW, although we did add some restrictions that I will discuss at the end of this post.</p><p style="text-align: left;">We decided on the basic posse construction with 1 veteran and 5 novices, with a $30 purse each, I went with my Nephilim and Luis's Cultists.

text-align: left;">I do not remember the details but, I won the game by a point but a big part of the game is the post game advancement. I believe Luis won this as you can see below. To summarise, I was able to kill 3 of the swamp creatures and 2 of Luis's characters. Luis killed once creature and two of my characters. Luis though scored a real victory in the post game as he had an event where he joined in a Swamp Ritual and ended up gaining a EXP point for each of his characters. We were able to revive all our characters but Luis was also able to advance a character to veteran. Two of my novices gained skills which was good. The below rosters refer to our post game states, before we expend funds before our next game.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhz66svQr8hM0lcvaFJSJLRyd2jB5dts4Wcao-LoUQa-p70A3AMSfCT3bVNxEjdsXn1Ej-d-tEUnGnwF9R0G0HSa6lRBOE4ZQQ66PHMB8cgVh7-TfO0lemVjDsKWvTzpYi7SlxkeYEFQoZrdEXCqbzJ0WTeX4CfIaRr6ZXP3aucweaUx5GWrPz7k3Sw" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="792" data-original-width="612" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhz66svQr8hM0lcvaFJSJLRyd2jB5dts4Wcao-LoUQa-p70A3AMSfCT3bVNxEjdsXn1Ej-d-tEUnGnwF9R0G0HSa6lRBOE4ZQQ66PHMB8cgVh7-TfO0lemVjDsKWvTzpYi7SlxkeYEFQoZrdEXCqbzJ0WTeX4CfIaRr6ZXP3aucweaUx5GWrPz7k3Sw=w308-h400" width="308" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiiIJSgdCaxhH0Zm46ptUznJLRqIRO_1sPsOhoj08dm8yCLvX4BwtYpsMmRU2iNqyFuK6Q4he1Ri4fSqa9oOdQCe6o0QbCaLw_hnxaisyiR6b7EnDpEFP3CJ7O_6leZknwoJ-Qu4he4XwrODxhP7NvHgWrogNWywj3hHK-R3iQWJHnYdG0G18MSozbN" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="792" data-original-width="612" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiiIJSgdCaxhH0Zm46ptUznJLRqIRO_1sPsOhoj08dm8yCLvX4BwtYpsMmRU2iNqyFuK6Q4he1Ri4fSqa9oOdQCe6o0QbCaLw_hnxaisyiR6b7EnDpEFP3CJ7O_6leZknwoJ-Qu4he4XwrODxhP7NvHgWrogNWywj3hHK-R3iQWJHnYdG0G18MSozbN=w308-h400" width="308" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhFJhM64PEqJB-AhKgCEDy6i8Z2em7UzPDdT9WWVBhuYWybam1Ko18LPk1KQ8-EDIflf_ZXqRt4slXz3TP2XsiN92byr8DH4_cSgdDJzhXsJONfgmF2YIron7_EqPjLQ17JwaM02fACtN7dWa8vRbfDhUDMiR4ib3w-aIJTWmyOdnn3PGuByhFr8otD" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="792" data-original-width="612" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhFJhM64PEqJB-AhKgCEDy6i8Z2em7UzPDdT9WWVBhuYWybam1Ko18LPk1KQ8-EDIflf_ZXqRt4slXz3TP2XsiN92byr8DH4_cSgdDJzhXsJONfgmF2YIron7_EqPjLQ17JwaM02fACtN7dWa8vRbfDhUDMiR4ib3w-aIJTWmyOdnn3PGuByhFr8otD=w308-h400" width="308" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh2SY6KI1O5rgDfTSMBX5Zg7WZ4RSds06Dk83htMn3WC5DDHGEnG5pOdwVguq3U9O5ZOinZVqUs6vdZyy87HSbpX8X_sLv9O4is8snf-ulQ0mPXEeVN9xS_SthBZoYDkpeZprvpop340KGSB2DhUv4ke9pv4KvCP-Bu8Qavzdh_XKOZrK1_ZmI3IzYZ" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="792" data-original-width="612" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh2SY6KI1O5rgDfTSMBX5Zg7WZ4RSds06Dk83htMn3WC5DDHGEnG5pOdwVguq3U9O5ZOinZVqUs6vdZyy87HSbpX8X_sLv9O4is8snf-ulQ0mPXEeVN9xS_SthBZoYDkpeZprvpop340KGSB2DhUv4ke9pv4KvCP-Bu8Qavzdh_XKOZrK1_ZmI3IzYZ=w308-h400" width="308" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anyway I can say I had a great time with the game, Luis laid out an excellent terrain and I am quite looking forward to our next game.</div></div></div><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>john de terre neuvehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-77146352736934297772024-02-23T08:24:00.002-05:002024-02-23T08:28:40.140-05:00Games Day WWII Theme<p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg9vMf3091-wjLjRW3tQI6GKdL2EFftxTjAERoRkiGS9MDGV4cYoBTLnSf6HnDC9w3CZgmUpLhyCRB8nEPmHiVBLRUckN61TISEx8e6VlFfK4-SBKyi7mldnnB5HMWl8ljUXeCYICTo3en3mRtLezKQUgKlhO370FT1GLKLuKs65pXfvfTPGMFq8_87" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="230" data-original-width="230" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg9vMf3091-wjLjRW3tQI6GKdL2EFftxTjAERoRkiGS9MDGV4cYoBTLnSf6HnDC9w3CZgmUpLhyCRB8nEPmHiVBLRUckN61TISEx8e6VlFfK4-SBKyi7mldnnB5HMWl8ljUXeCYICTo3en3mRtLezKQUgKlhO370FT1GLKLuKs65pXfvfTPGMFq8_87" width="240" /></a></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We had our third Club Games Day last Saturday.

We had not played since November due to a couple of unfortunate cancellations.

The Scots got driven back in the first attack on "<i>La Ferme de Caubert"</i> which was going to be the jump-off point for the final assault on the objective of the campaign and victory. This was going to be a tough one as the Germans already have 2 barbwires, 2 minefields and an entrenchment on the terrain and may add further fixed defences. The Scots will be dicing their FM with a -2. We both went with the same platoons from our first go on this table.

There were few double phases but both sides accumulated CoC pips rapidly. There were times in the game when we both had 3-4 fully cocked CoC dice each. This resulted in a situation that if one player made a move he was interrupted or an ambush appeared. I kept both a mortar team and a MMG team off the table to ambush until quite late in the game. Graham had kept a full section off the board that could be deployed entrenched if I left myself in the open. Fortunately I was so concerned that he had a Flame Thrower team that I was quite careful to not expose myself. After almost 3 hours Graham withdrew, his FM was 5 and mine was 6. I think it became obvious that as a defender a double phase was not going to be of an advantage but a double phase would be more useful to me especially in the setting of us both having expended all our CoC dice. Certainly the game was interesting but was a little slow. On to table 5.</td></tr></tbody></table><br /></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><b><i><u>The Butcher's Bill</u></i></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i><b>Germans Platoon #1</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>6 figures lost</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>CO -1</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>MO -5 (-1FM)</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>Outlook Content</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><b><i>The Camerons Platoon #1/D Company</i></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>0 figures lost</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>CO -1</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>MO-3 (-1FM)</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: 400;"><i>Outlook Sad</i></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><u><b>More Training</b></u></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><u><b><br /></b></u></i></div><div style="text-align: left;">We had another CoC training session after the campaign game as it was out club's game night at the Abyss.

Two club members, Gabriel and Dan, came for the game. We played in 20mm as my WWII terrain is at that scale. Gabriel has a 28mm Canadian platoon and is working on a 20mm French Platoon. Dan has, I believe, some 28mm platoons but also has a beautifully painted 20mm Bersaglieri platoon. He has put this together for Eastern Europe, but we decided to play a Western European game with a Canadian platoon attacking an Italian farm defended by a platoon of Italian marksmen. Quite ahistoric but it got the job done. We had to do a bit of fiddling with the Italian list but used the one from the Serafimovich campaign.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

I felt no need do the Patrol Phase twice as they both had well placed JOP's. I made a fairly significant error with the armour rules, which gave quite an advantage to the Canadians. The Canadians did win on morale and I think we could have selected better supports for the Italians. They really had no AT weaponry (as was the case in Eastern Europe) but the next time they see the table in Western Europe they will have a Pak38. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjTzs5aJm9_TkkBQw8AbxFM9nEenuP-Dn-nGM6y4JCMxFOR0IDLtutdHUkzvYvb4PNBnEvYjPLSTyk9n233z6ISzZSsOuifo-yL1DfjKx9NvPVRTaOb7n5azcNf3-RSRGaaJh75Qv9Nz4xZzuI4nzv3iaaKi4_LKB7Ws5gq2vO8W3MFGOGheJessyTW" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="400" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjTzs5aJm9_TkkBQw8AbxFM9nEenuP-Dn-nGM6y4JCMxFOR0IDLtutdHUkzvYvb4PNBnEvYjPLSTyk9n233z6ISzZSsOuifo-yL1DfjKx9NvPVRTaOb7n5azcNf3-RSRGaaJh75Qv9Nz4xZzuI4nzv3iaaKi4_LKB7Ws5gq2vO8W3MFGOGheJessyTW=w400-h400" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /></div><br /><p></p>john de terre neuvehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-15980722914881810322024-01-24T15:15:00.009-05:002024-01-24T15:43:06.175-05:00Tournoi de SAGA<p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgGWqogbX1kUzKkMPWpztzaz9TEQjk_QJp9UgWJys32LqKANX45fe1frUk8vcKtc3GU5CFXzizoNYT5X0dOdN6F9P2dvX7XSRJmgiJz-bkJ2CvIa4e8GqpbPdT7XV-c7JqucvvyPkHCaLzSJT_iiejLmhSrr74LiMi04BLe9F_oKEWAbBYv24fYEZNT" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="330" data-original-width="862" height="154" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgGWqogbX1kUzKkMPWpztzaz9TEQjk_QJp9UgWJys32LqKANX45fe1frUk8vcKtc3GU5CFXzizoNYT5X0dOdN6F9P2dvX7XSRJmgiJz-bkJ2CvIa4e8GqpbPdT7XV-c7JqucvvyPkHCaLzSJT_iiejLmhSrr74LiMi04BLe9F_oKEWAbBYv24fYEZNT=w400-h154" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Some photos from our club's SAGA tournament organised by my friend Luis.

Myself and Luis met at his place for another great game of Dracula's America. We played similar posses as our last game. I dod not remember the name of the scenario but essentially we started with $120 posses in opposite corners of the terrain which was again a western town.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">In one of the central building was the Necronomicon, the winner simply had to control this building after 8 turns. It was a good game with a lot of back and forth. We were able to take out some of our opposing characters but at the end of the game, I believed Luis controlled 3 of the 4 buildings while I just controlled one. A die was thrown and Luis's Skinwalker posse discovered the Necronomicon. It looks like my Nephilim will require a bit more training!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhot8ajrei6JsC88vshO9nO9OYK98q6HMRXsJlsXU4eGCTtFJGBKeiEE2PNw5a2Si51mC9vR5O9z6ZCVgGgCwHx49ccv71t7muSKhJPyM4LmoQHAOaimlOBhTxVT_xul0ilIP_jYrtN5aOry7GpIGc2o66SubLXo5KXoe9nKlyHWm0U7y3Ex3tPYuRB/s3562/IMG_6327.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em;

The Germans ambushed my advancing section with their Flamethrower team, essentially dropping them to 3 figures, my FM fell precipitously and I made the decision to withdraw.

We played on the same table with the same scenario but Dan brought his Italians so we made them defending against the Canadian attackers. I think we all had a good time and I found that the 3 new players picked upon the game quite quickly. I only had to play the Patrol Phase once as we got a satisfactory result. We did not finish the game and did not use any vehicles but we got in all the mechanics including combat.

Some of us in the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61550804796802"> Montreal Historical Wargaming Club</a> became interested in the 1813 campaign put out by David Brown for Général d'Armee. With GdA2 coming out, I was hoping to get everything in place for it's launch. I have no real interest painting 18mm figures, so I engaged 2 painters who I have used in the past. I was starting from scratch for both the required Russian and Prussian armies.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">For the cavalry and generals, I had decided to go with <a href="https://www.oldguardpainters.com">Old Guard Painting</a> in the Ukraine. As you can imagine there were going to be some difficulties with getting work done in the Ukraine but after a back and forth with Vladimir, I decided to go ahead. The painters with Old Guard do a superb job and of all the painting companies, I have worked with they are the most accurate by far in respect to uniformology with no input required by myself. Quite a bit more expensive than the Asian painters but well worth it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">For the infantry, I went with <a href="https://miniaturelovers.com">Fernando</a> in Sri Lanka, they have a very good price and had painted a Union ACW army for me some time ago. This was going to be a lot more work for me as they need a lot of direction and back and forth requires a lot of my time. I felt though that the Russian and Prussian uniforms are pretty simple and that would probably work. I am not a button counter and to be honest at 18mm for wargaming purposes, things do not have to be exact. In respect to Russian infantry there are minimal uniform distinctions between different units, so that would be easy enough. For the Prussians, the main difference is the colour of the collars and cuffs for different units so I asked them to paint them all white. My plan was to add the specific colours myself. So this required a bit of work on my behalf.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It took about 3 months to get 750 infantry figures done in Sri Lanka, which is pretty good. The mounted figures took much longer, maybe almost 11 months to get 140 figures done. I am not really sure how Vladimir was able to do with the power outages and the war. But he did get it done. I based all the figures myself as well as adding the flags (I really miss Flag Dude). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiomFQ7S5nlif9AqCRFPS47uRVMDwd3tvApUSSJ4EP10o1-mux87uROwJh8vCW90IorNi1ZfQ1oES9Bj-b98K0IPnjCKsLuObfwo0avj3wvlpp6Mh82q2jxF2SGUes2Hpn2zvTgDVMGPoIOadUmcgjhGwV8MPpg0J1v5KgR-jcLyTYJ2nQLchC94cH6" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="443" data-original-width="600" height="295" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiomFQ7S5nlif9AqCRFPS47uRVMDwd3tvApUSSJ4EP10o1-mux87uROwJh8vCW90IorNi1ZfQ1oES9Bj-b98K0IPnjCKsLuObfwo0avj3wvlpp6Mh82q2jxF2SGUes2Hpn2zvTgDVMGPoIOadUmcgjhGwV8MPpg0J1v5KgR-jcLyTYJ2nQLchC94cH6=w400-h295" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Here are a few photos, I did not bother to photograph individual units as there are over 900 figures.

This is definitely not a simulation but a game, I suppose that should be self evident as it is Alternate History. I came to appreciate that the mechanics were quite simple and at times one could say simplistic in their application. This is quite novel for me, as certainly most games I play are simulations of historical battles and thus have realistic mechanisms. Certainly, Dracula's America is not that. I have always looked at SAGA as a game as well but with some replication of Dark Age tactics. It is interesting that I have picked up 2 games in the past couple of months that are pure games, but I can say that I enjoy playing them both.

Each side had a character with a Shotgun and a Winchester. I also find it a little simpler to not have a lot of buildings (not that I have any), so the game was set up in the desert. There was lot of cover though as well as the ability to get in an elevated position.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiA52Iq_JSkhlncZLD24rg8Q_ToscAIHt88lgGovbGvTswI3le_-_YOD8MtN-hxkKCFbCnViI2cS553886frCKqKtd5kF0EYnvTZYD-EqTFKQE1wBMGlzOxsb54nOPJeRstvtKyDWd6BjNdOPX3RwCFnzUpJ7CPs_Pq3znCcwLIn5kVzAfd6WN5PUjT" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="2801" data-original-width="3791" height="295" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiA52Iq_JSkhlncZLD24rg8Q_ToscAIHt88lgGovbGvTswI3le_-_YOD8MtN-hxkKCFbCnViI2cS553886frCKqKtd5kF0EYnvTZYD-EqTFKQE1wBMGlzOxsb54nOPJeRstvtKyDWd6BjNdOPX3RwCFnzUpJ7CPs_Pq3znCcwLIn5kVzAfd6WN5PUjT=w400-h295" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhfVIUCOzzVPwWfB7WW1d49SgMyomarorinUSsxtRFXjDB0W7aX35mb7WM5u69NLFsBieQetl090XAsB2omtHfCpvgTBy1xCpvhgj8ke2vDKhusMaK5qEhqhdLeUnAlTSr1IRRMdLrR_fBxNAwiogHW_cZfYW2zwd4VQk8opBnJRW_u9YaHwrhWO11e" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhfVIUCOzzVPwWfB7WW1d49SgMyomarorinUSsxtRFXjDB0W7aX35mb7WM5u69NLFsBieQetl090XAsB2omtHfCpvgTBy1xCpvhgj8ke2vDKhusMaK5qEhqhdLeUnAlTSr1IRRMdLrR_fBxNAwiogHW_cZfYW2zwd4VQk8opBnJRW_u9YaHwrhWO11e=w400-h300" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgxK1C6sxI9I-onJIYstAI34WSzEwWhEAfYZ7xrVvg_qNZgMejZ1RRaAx2UD_YmAKZA_ZH8I6Q6ty74Kh6shdt7RA-I11dzWg2_0uLvxS2QfaA3qlklG4hOr1a4bPCVg6PkGrjFnKL8X5IIneVK1bW0_bq9QjY5CKYQqlftcO4mkE-yCRGMqPAGq4lp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgxK1C6sxI9I-onJIYstAI34WSzEwWhEAfYZ7xrVvg_qNZgMejZ1RRaAx2UD_YmAKZA_ZH8I6Q6ty74Kh6shdt7RA-I11dzWg2_0uLvxS2QfaA3qlklG4hOr1a4bPCVg6PkGrjFnKL8X5IIneVK1bW0_bq9QjY5CKYQqlftcO4mkE-yCRGMqPAGq4lp=w400-h300" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjxm8_hO7_wCHD-l5WNa1Dc5LL9s7nkziib-uHUySpp8DckgkdDq-Tq_w06ma5HJb0sIOOwEe7ldjQVG2kP6Qr_jfrpo9xK32Hq6uWWyjVrncs4FFG2TFFLj-WA9f64ezQLJj0-REqt5zxD5-8yab1CA0aABTyvWLa68YXB62df2Saw6FzOCQoKKP6J" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="2690" data-original-width="4029" height="268" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjxm8_hO7_wCHD-l5WNa1Dc5LL9s7nkziib-uHUySpp8DckgkdDq-Tq_w06ma5HJb0sIOOwEe7ldjQVG2kP6Qr_jfrpo9xK32Hq6uWWyjVrncs4FFG2TFFLj-WA9f64ezQLJj0-REqt5zxD5-8yab1CA0aABTyvWLa68YXB62df2Saw6FzOCQoKKP6J=w400-h268" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgAdzaqAV6Q-C9Zpi-M_qGP1EAyOO8h3U2nrbsO8wWz8IywaxsYzN84rfA4Aeg6-BVperqDB5pgOX3EhMDLPnYQYwQqIxyLiINmVUOwsUjQ11yYCUdqYYk0hw3z93ejjTd8XNqVD7pMyDZaKfW4-NWiIvPb3KcUdAOfgLOqI5W7smSC48GZ8RqC7b8-" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgAdzaqAV6Q-C9Zpi-M_qGP1EAyOO8h3U2nrbsO8wWz8IywaxsYzN84rfA4Aeg6-BVperqDB5pgOX3EhMDLPnYQYwQqIxyLiINmVUOwsUjQ11yYCUdqYYk0hw3z93ejjTd8XNqVD7pMyDZaKfW4-NWiIvPb3KcUdAOfgLOqI5W7smSC48GZ8RqC7b8-=w400-h300" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Well, unfortunately it was a very lopsided game.

Not withstanding, the game did go very smoothly with really nothing but very brief pauses to check something in the rulebook. It really is quite a well written rulebook, and a fun game. I am confident that Graham will play again.</div></div></div><p></p>john de terre neuvehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-71872868078693147622023-11-27T06:41:00.002-05:002023-11-27T06:41:43.151-05:00Fire and Fury: Battle of Kernstown<p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjMejk4EyrBxn9WYUNiGwUQIjx_xI4531P0HH_X7D2scTlXtzDfVu5uFksME8as9QUoi3tQtgVDsUhpao5ikDYdDN6-r-CgdMu1BflfHe7IMP_Lg6QoV6WbnKgK8G-M-5oa4m0ijtlCNdyyULFI5sMKEHMnPLcuqSHFnWxgnB5Wr0oS-MBz_KH5Jiv2" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="901" data-original-width="1250" height="289" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjMejk4EyrBxn9WYUNiGwUQIjx_xI4531P0HH_X7D2scTlXtzDfVu5uFksME8as9QUoi3tQtgVDsUhpao5ikDYdDN6-r-CgdMu1BflfHe7IMP_Lg6QoV6WbnKgK8G-M-5oa4m0ijtlCNdyyULFI5sMKEHMnPLcuqSHFnWxgnB5Wr0oS-MBz_KH5Jiv2=w400-h289" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I had another Fire and Fury ACW game a week ago.

I will compare it to Pickett's Charge. There was a couple of idiosyncrasies in my first game in respect to unit size but these were not so obvious in this game. Once you get a handle on the two sided QRS, the game runs pretty smoothly. I have asked Graham if it would be ok if I port the OB and scenario to Pickett's Charge and run a game for comparison. Thanks to Graham for hosting supper and Steve for driving from Ottawa and Jean-Jacques for coming from Sorel-Tracy.</div></div></div><p></p>john de terre neuvehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-67311650922778471582023-11-26T05:55:00.004-05:002023-11-27T05:29:22.420-05:00SAGA: Anglo-Saxons vs Jomsvikings<p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisBt5g0IE_GF37TCWwbCF6qRlnCNXGdBdttNxj7rkRMZIgnny0daaw_2NKO5KthFhqh0fcID4G-ikk0c1twZe8lXALFiW2gqCxdMAuoP_fO52ireYXd4CYp8-NFky3rFCa_r0k3PQ3xs3O9EKKqvb5MW3wKa9M0nGLbLap3iPTxyc8mgc-ok9RqOKb/s474/th-476335816.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="344" data-original-width="474" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisBt5g0IE_GF37TCWwbCF6qRlnCNXGdBdttNxj7rkRMZIgnny0daaw_2NKO5KthFhqh0fcID4G-ikk0c1twZe8lXALFiW2gqCxdMAuoP_fO52ireYXd4CYp8-NFky3rFCa_r0k3PQ3xs3O9EKKqvb5MW3wKa9M0nGLbLap3iPTxyc8mgc-ok9RqOKb/w400-h290/th-476335816.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I am a bit behind in posting my reports of games, this is a game that took place about 10 days ago with my friend Pierre-Yves.

From what I understand, TTCombat had just bought the rules that had been released some years earlier from the company who had launched them.

I had to deploy early in order to find out where Graham was going to place the Bunker Buster. At the same time the minute I came into LOS, I knew I would be annihilated. I started with the Char tank and both 2" Mortars. I absolutely covered my approach with smoke, but the Bunker Buster still would not deploy. As usual, I stopped taking photos almost immediately. Graham eventually placed a squad in the stone house facing the east west road. I was able to cover the road with smoke and then brought the Char B1 forward and was slowly able to whittle down the German defenders. Graham ended the turn (he seemed to be able to throw 5's every turn) and the Bunker Buster finally came out, luckily most of my troops were in Hard Cover and despite the HE reducing cover I was able to withstand the bombardment and was able to put down more smoke. The 88 only got one chance to hit the Char and missed by dicing a 4. I was able to take out the German SL and then started to advance my troops in the field from south. With this and the continuously fire from the French Tank, I was able to drop the German FM to a point where they decided to withdraw. A Scots victory!</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><i><u>The Butcher's Bill</u></i></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i><b>Germans </b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>CO 0</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>MO -1</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>Outlook Cheerful</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i><b>Scots (-1 on FM rolls)</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>CO -1</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>MO-4</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>Outlook Thoughtful</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>The Scots get to use tanks in Scenario 4, the Germans will have to pay for their Off Table MMG in the next scenario.

The War Machine did not at much as the Horde have a SAGA ability that puts them in solid cover, I think they only scored 2 kills on 4 shots, might not take them again. I made no use of the Monster but I believe he might be useful once I figure out how to use it. Although, the Black Knight did nothing in the game I believe him necessary to protect the Necromancer in case he takes a hit. I made good use of the spells except Erosion but it maybe it is enemy dependent.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Thanks Luis for coming over.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now to prepare for an AoI game with PY.</div><p></p>john de terre neuvehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03898285039988448895noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293690195430705478.post-34127979216883125112023-09-18T09:13:00.001-04:002023-09-18T09:13:37.364-04:00Caesar's Camp: Attack on the Hedgehog Wood<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjpGfJ3g1Q48i8vCChujSTS86Fbk0TEt6fEwK1MnFuBFWTB8t1YyTvMZOkbj0Vh9NZ6afYhBA3q1nWsLOByZyXlWxMa-s73_KDC8D0RG0lsrIiEv_6JwlR5WXvXTmOTMp1yJsTkeSN_I7x-9hwvM46Ax0PZBiWX6iexM25htR--R-oUEHUveTNzCFp4" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="841" data-original-width="595" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjpGfJ3g1Q48i8vCChujSTS86Fbk0TEt6fEwK1MnFuBFWTB8t1YyTvMZOkbj0Vh9NZ6afYhBA3q1nWsLOByZyXlWxMa-s73_KDC8D0RG0lsrIiEv_6JwlR5WXvXTmOTMp1yJsTkeSN_I7x-9hwvM46Ax0PZBiWX6iexM25htR--R-oUEHUveTNzCFp4=w283-h400" width="283" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Myself and Graham started a new campaign this past Saturday. I am playing the Scott's and Graham the Germans. It is an interesting campaign as it tracks the exploits of the 51st Highland Division, the only British/Canadian unit seconded to the French 10th Army. As the situation worsened in early June 1940, this unit was sent in to support their French allies in an attempt to drive the 57th German Division out of their bridgehead south of the Somme River near Abbeville. This is a little unusual, as historically we usually think of British actions during this period of the war in the context of the retreat of the BEF to Dunkirk after the fall of Belgium to the Germans. With the success of <i>Fall Gelb</i>, the Germans were now focused on <i>Fall Rot</i>, the capture of Paris.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">In our campaign, we see the Scots trying to stop the Germans from securing a bridgehead south of the Somme in order to begin their rush to Paris. It will be an interesting campaign as the Scots will have some French armour in support as the campaign proceeds. The 57th was a 2nd wave German division and we will see some WWI weapons with one squad in each platoon fielding MG08/15 LMG's rather than MG34's. They will have the support of some early armoured cars.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiDwSp2-bFO5jBDcR2ESonrMDlQJmEx-a0g1Ny1luBBLP6nWqZ4YQFUWckCwOihgUt_fSTS1IUpMXOobhcbfrdQSiXX33xK7E0KU03mQzNh4Xs52PJsJZGlTMl5Kwx9RLAw5_ge5pDEWyOnvHmqE3h9lWjNS_fCeEH-kjjIQJLmxE3i1fdfP0ABobz/s1907/IMG_6040.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="966" data-original-width="1907" height="203" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiDwSp2-bFO5jBDcR2ESonrMDlQJmEx-a0g1Ny1luBBLP6nWqZ4YQFUWckCwOihgUt_fSTS1IUpMXOobhcbfrdQSiXX33xK7E0KU03mQzNh4Xs52PJsJZGlTMl5Kwx9RLAw5_ge5pDEWyOnvHmqE3h9lWjNS_fCeEH-kjjIQJLmxE3i1fdfP0ABobz/w400-h203/IMG_6040.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAt43w1zManrfac1eeEKk-1ICd0BSeHvLS9nwUWMJlpnyMX4GQr89aVXQL38PbzDhXbzlkBr3dczsWNmcVBKCHrfy0V3odfALAka3j9kJtGHWqEIAG4v6fYgfNYTCYHgBeYOTI2kUTSMpaCLl1nmi97kvSn8yG8tZVyY3Z0ZWI90n6ufvfCUpE67Kk/s3837/IMG_6041.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2642" data-original-width="3837" height="275" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAt43w1zManrfac1eeEKk-1ICd0BSeHvLS9nwUWMJlpnyMX4GQr89aVXQL38PbzDhXbzlkBr3dczsWNmcVBKCHrfy0V3odfALAka3j9kJtGHWqEIAG4v6fYgfNYTCYHgBeYOTI2kUTSMpaCLl1nmi97kvSn8yG8tZVyY3Z0ZWI90n6ufvfCUpE67Kk/w400-h275/IMG_6041.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i><b><u>German Defenders-217th Infanterie Regiment (FM8)</u></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i><b>2nd Wave Infantry Platoon</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>2 SL's</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>3 squads of 10 men, lead by a JL's, one squad with a MG08/15</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i><b>Supports 8</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>2 barbed wire</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>1 minefield</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Pregame Barrage</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Flamethrower Team</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><i><u>Scottish Attackers-The Cameron Highlanders, B Company (FM9)</u></i></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><i>British EW Infantry Platoon</i></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>2 Senior Leaders</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>2" Mortar Team</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>3 sections of 11 men, lead by Junior Leaders</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i><b>Supports 12</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Pregame Barrage</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Vickers MMG</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Daimler Scout Car</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Sniper</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>2" Mortar Team</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>Scenario</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><i>This is Scenario 4 from the main rulebook: A Delaying Action.
