I ran three scenarios from my Villers-Bocage scenario book at Historicon this year: "Wittmann's Ride" (Michael Wittmann's single-handed attack on the British column), "Panther Hunter" (the battle for Lingevres where Sgt. Wilfred Harris got five Panthers in one day), and "Tigers Attack" (the Germaan armored attack into Villers the afternoon after Wittmann's assault). All went off very well with lots of action and good times had by all.

I want to thank everyone who played and invite everyone to check out my book (which is available through Brigade Games).

Nice Photo's…

I played one of the games that weekend and I only wish I could have cloned myself to play them all.

Excellent scenarios and the game we played in (run by Sean) went right down the wire to the end.

Thanks to Sean and Mark and the team for running yet more great Fireball Forward games!!!

I was in Friday morning's game, Panther Hunter, but had to bail before the final turn as I was in a game that started at 2 p.m. When I met some of the other players later, I was surprised that we, the British side, had managed to hold on. It was close and the outcome was in doubt until the end. A great time and a very good scenario.

Thanks very much, guys--I appreciate it and I'm glad all of you who got to play this weekend had a good time!

Mark, it was good seeing you and I hope you can make the HMGS cons in the future.
