Club night at WAR 18/5/2016
This time Mike get to hold a town with his Germans as this is the last few day of WWII his forces are
a bit thin on the ground . British have a big advantage in Tanks and with a company of Royal Marines
First on to the table is the piper and command group . Mike is still putting out his forces  as I do my first move  . Second move a skirmish line of Marines to see if any fire comes my way . The next few moves on comes a Squadron of Comets I have never used a full Squadron before on the table  and makes a change not to be out gun by the Germans.
Now the fun starts a Flack 88mm fires at one Comet and missed  comets spot for the 88mm and return fire hit no 88mm left.
Pz VI on the German left flank start to hit my Comets but they take some hits . Send in a second troop of Comets to make up the losses .
Jag panther now on the table get spotted and dose not get a shot of before it gets KO love these 77mm in the Comets
Tiger 1 comes on the right flank not a good place as it try to stop my Comets Mike having a very bad day with his dice . No hits on my Comets but with 6 Comets to fire at the Tiger only one out come .
Marines are take and give back casualty's from house . Comets start to take out the houses and his troops in the tower get out fast as I start to use the Comets on it .
On my right flank the Comets now get to the road that leads in to the town but are stopped my panzerfaust and Pz VI so will hold till in Marines gat up to them .
Germans start to pull off the table and its now 9.30 so time to pack up .
Think I won this one makes a change not been out gunned  help a lot .

20mm Dutch troops hold the Bridge WWII
Game at WAR club night  27/4/2016
Me Dutch troops to hold the bridge 20 infantry 1 A/T gun two A/T rifles and two DAFM38 armoured cars .
Mike has a German  panzer Division lead units 1pz 2pz 38t sdk222 M/C 80 infantry .
this was not going to be a easy game for me and had my work cut out just trying to hold my side of the bridge.
Sent out my Bicycle reconnaissance unit to the far end of the road to look for the Germans .
Spotted the Germans they then tried to get back to the bridge to let the defenders know . Most got captured on the road back  with out firing a shot .
German reconnaissance m/c and sdk222  got to my side of the bridge . The two DAF M38 and a/t rifles made short work of them .
German pz2s knocked out one DAF M38 and the second one pull back to the road leading of my end of the table . German infantry the shot up the a/t gun crew and with the Germans infantry  taken the houses that my a/t rifles in the Dutch infantry pull back on the DAF.
Sounds a very quick game but it last 3 hours from the start of the game and it was nice to give my Dutch boys a outing .
