Nearly 3 weeks after I set the table up at the club, we eventually got the game played, even though much changed. With players missing over 3 weeks for birthdays, house moves, holidays etc. Myself and Sean decided to just get the game done. The scenario changed to a straight up encounter between the Bolsheviks and the Germano-Turk alliance. The Brits were sadly returned to their box. We kept it simple as Sean hadn't played the rules before. Both sides were looking to secure the village for its supplies.
Germano-Turks advance |
Bolsheviks take the field |
Turks secure the camp |
Bolsheviks reach the village |
Charge!! |
Auxiliaries creep forward |
Bolsheviks storm the village |
I see Turks across the field |
Viscious melee with the Germans coming out on top |
Siberians finally getting a move on |
The end of battle view |
A good fun game. The loss of the 2 German HMG teams severly hampered the defence of the village. Despite inflicting horrific on the advancing Bolsheviks, a steady stream of casualties on the defenders eventually forced a withdrawal of the Germano-Turks.
Great stuff Scotty...nice to get the game finally played! I am just home from another RCW stoush at Julian's, so an AAR will follow over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteCheers Keith and looking forward to your AAR
DeleteGood to see your patience paid off! Sometimes, when it is difficult to muster the players, it is best to go with what you have.
ReplyDeleteVery true, actually easier to run when just the 2 of us playing
DeleteI think I missed this one when it was posted excellent to see the collection in action again 👍
