We had a cracking game today!

we ran a couple of German paratroops each at most, and tried to conquer a small corner of Kent.

Great premise for a game, and it played out really well.

The paucity of troops and weapons, and the possibility of friendly fire, made us super-cautious on scouting and use of cover.

I never did find me flammenwerfer, though… I reckon some idiot dropped that in the channel.

In 1066………
"Near this spot by ancient tradition the men of Kent and Kentish men carrying boughs on their shoulders and swords in their hands met the invader William Duke of Normandy. They offered peace if he would grant their ancient rights and liberties otherwise war and that most deadly. Their request was granted and from that day the motto of kent has been INVICTA meaning Unconquered."
'William the Conqueror-except Kent which was ok with it' doesn't quite have the same ring to it……..
