AAR: Two IABSM AARs
/Originally posted 28th December 2012
A couple of after action reports from the Christmas period.
First off, Katzenstein uses his British infantry for the first time and, apparently, and unlike whenever I put any newly painted troops on the table, they seem to have won!
Secondly, Sergeant Steiner tries IABSM for the first time.

AAR: The Centre of Yelna (Day 2)
/Originally posted 20th December 2012
Those of you who follow this site regularly will remember that battle four in Benito's Vyazma or Bust! campaign had ended in a draw. Votes were called for, and the overwhelming response was for Benito to play the game again as if the Germans had renewed their assault on Yelna the next day.
Here's the report of what happened. Another close game!

Everyone is going Vyazma or Bust crazy! Not only do we have Benito submitting battle reports faster than I can get them loaded up, but here's a great report by Brian Weathersby from a game featuring scenario 2A: the Bridge at Urk.

Well, Benito and his friends in Spain are playing through the Vyazma or Bust campaign almost too fast for me to keep up with their battle reports!
Here are the AAR from the second and third games in the campaign.
First up is Belyj, second is On The Road to Pochinok.

AAR: Two from Norseygamer

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.

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!
