"Sergeant Perry" is a long time contributor to the TFL Yahoo Group. He plays IABSM in 20mm with a stunningly beautiful collection of figures, vehicles and scenery.
His After Action Reports are always very picture heavy. Here are three featuring the same scenario from the IABSM v3 rulebook: Action at Galmanche.
Paul Scrivens Smith with a great AAR of a game from one of the scenarios in the IABSM v3 rulebook. Plenty of excellent pictures!
Great game using a scenario taken from the Vyazma or Bust scenario supplement:
Another great battle report from a Tony Hobbz solo game. Using a variation of Platoon Forward adapted for company-sized actions, a German force attempts to hold a small village against overwhelming Soviet assault. Some fantastic photos!
A Charlie Don't Surf after action report that features a game fought with flats rather than figures.
A great battle report from a Tony Hobbz solo game. Using a variation of Platoon Forward adapted for company-sized actions, a German force attempts to clear a small French town. Some fantastic photos!
A quick battle reports for I Ain't Been Shot, Mum!: I finally managed to get around to playing one of my favourite Operation Compass scenarios: the assault of the El Gubbi airfield.
Then we have another report from the keyboard of Paul Scrivens Smith as he replicates the Carentan action from Band of Brothers: not once, but twice.
We have our first report from the Devon Wargames Group, re-fighting the Neuville au Plain scenario from the All American scenario pack:
We have a flourishing community of Scandinavian Lardies: renown for their good humour; extraordinary combinations of hair style and beards; and wonderful After Action Reports.
Here are three After Action Reports, all from the Miniatyrmannen (The Miniatures Man) blog: two from various Cons, and one from a club game.
A Tale of Wooden Crosses describes how a German reconnaissance force succeeded in its aim of finding the enemy...
The game put on at Incognicon 2012 was based on the Nice One, Kirill! scenario from the TFL Summer Special 2007:
Finally, a good looking Winter War game set back in 1939:
It was great to meet so many Lardies at Salute yesterday. Included amongst the many was Benito and his fellow wargamers from Madrid, Spain. It's therefore good timing to post one of Benito's latest Charlie Don't Surf after action reports, with a scenario taken from the Surf's Up scenario pack.
Inspired by the arrival of Battle for Liberation, here is an AAR from a great Normandy game played yesterday.
I've included details of the terrain and forces used, so you can actually re-play this game yourself if you want. If you do, let me know how you get on!
A third outing for the North of Caen scenario from the IABSM3 rulebook, also from Paul Scrivens Smith:
An Eastern Front game from the pen of Paul Scrivens Smith featuring action from the Belgorad-Kharkov offensive:
James Mantos reports on an early war game where the forces and terrain were generated using the new random scenario generator to be found in the IABSM3 rulebook:
A report on a D-Day game centred around the Paras' defence of Ranville. The scenario was taken from the Summer Special 2006, and you can see other AAR from the same scenario in the Games Day 2008 section of the AARs page.
Two AARs from the pen of new-to-IABSM player Paul Scrivens Smith. Both describe fighting the North of Caen scenario from the IABSM v3 rulebook, although one re-fight has been transposed to the desert!
Continuing the eastern front theme, here's another AAR from Tony Hobbs covering the defence of Kobrin.
Katzenstein reports on his first game of IABSM:
