Testing out a 1944 Scenario using TFL’s I Ain’t Been Shot Mum rule set.

The Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry in action at Gheel, Belgium in September 1944. This action was a diversion/ precursor attack to Market Garden. Unusually for me, I played the defending Germans comprising a reduced strength company supported by a platoon of Jadgpanthers.

The Rangers squadron was supported by a full strength company of the Durham Light Infantry.

The table size was 8 feet by 6 feet and the figures were 1/72 scale.
