Friday 11th at Portbury Knights had the British needing to breakthrough the front German trenches and take and hold a farm against possible counterattack. Basically a large raid. Two attempts made, one a drawn game in casualty terms but the Brits failing to take the objective in the time allowed whilst in the second they achieved the result in double quick time! Pics here

Lol, I thought it was a reality show or something, based on the title

Looks great. What rules were you using?

Warhammer's 'Great War' were the rules. Plays nice and fast but needs some careful thinking to avoid total destruction! very possible plus lots of the right cover etc. Tanks are very vulnerable if the opposition has that nasty Anti-Tank gun, and Anti-Tank rifle, HMG and field gun! Germans still lost the second game though! ;-)

while watching finding the fallen the other might about Cambrai , and the testing of the steel plate against normal rifle rounds, and the effrects when the bullet was reversed, I reckon tanks should be quite vunerable

Yup; WW1 tanks were remarkably vulnerable in fact.
