Benito turns his hand to the Second World War, and the first scenario from the Vyazma or Bust! campaign: Izdeshkovo.
Not a good result for the Germans!

An excellent Charlie Don't Surf AAR from Benito and his friends in Spain. Some lovely photos.
A couple of battle reports from Norseygamer. These are both played solo in 20mm on an enormous 8" by 4" table!
Both are from scenario packs. The first is our first AAR from the new Blenneville or Bust! supplement (see below): British tanks and infantry attempt to capture Avaux.
Avaux from Blenneville or Bust!
Vyazma from Vyazma or Bust!
The second is from the Vyazma or Bust! supplement: the climatic battle in the campaign set on the outskirts of Vyazma. The Germans are attacking, and get a bit of a shock when the Soviet armoured train de-cloaks!

Chris Stoesen gives us our first battle report from the Campaign for Greece scenario pack: scenario #05 Outflanked!
Mike Whittacker chips in with two battle reports using the North of Caen scenario from the IABSMv3 rulebook.
A battle report featuring the bird-like Harook versus the dog-like Protolene Khanate. Read about how my seemingly unstoppable Harook came very much a cropper!
A long and bloody After Action Report featuring the Australians in action in Vietnam.
Three great shots of the excellent "Indian Country" demonstration game put on by the Abingdon Wargames Club at Colours 2012. Pictures from the Paint It Pink blog:
A couple of 'first game of IABSM' battle reports featuring scenarios from the IABSMv3 rulebook.
Action at Galmanche
North of Caen
A quick battle report from James Mantos featuring a great looking bridge.
More from the extremely talented Sergeant Perry: this time it's five different battle reports featuring the same scenario from the Welsh Guards scenario pack played at the same convention.
Just count those Churchills: I think they needed a bigger table!
"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.
