Thanks chaps. I must say that it's been pointed out to me that multi-player rules are in the book onp102
! That'll be a lesson to me to read rulebooks properl
! Any credit for table and miniatures has to go to my opponent – he provided them all. Well done, Dave

It's a great game-- this was a beautiful set-up and a very good battle report to boot. As far as multi-player, we have run almost all our CoC games with 3-4 players and it works fine with just the one platoon per side. Just divvy up the units in the platoon between the two players on each side. Once I get more stuff painted up I will give it a go with the suggestions TooFatLardies have made about how to run a four way with each player having their own force and command dice. |

Thanks Doug An excellent AAR, really well done. I will be trying my first game of 'Chain' at Cold Wars with some friends. Clif |

Excellent AAR with great minis and terrain. Looks like you enjoyed your first outing. Thanks for posting |

Thanks for the comments on my terrain and minis. Figures are Valiant (1/72 but more like 25mm) and paint up really well. The tanks were some old stuff we had lying around. I use the Valiant for Normandy but have gone to warlord 28mm for other theatres. I will do a tutorial sometime on woods,roads and hedges. Quick and easy. |

Should have added that CoC are the best ww2 skirmish rules I've played in 45 years. The historical narrative, as attested to by Doug's aar, is excellent. |

Interesting approach to your woods! It looks as if all the foliage is supported on trunks and pops off when needed? |

Great story line and photos in your AAR. The terrain is exquisite. Gary |

Correct Bill. Very handy. |

Great minis, great terrain and great AAR. I'm hoping to get CoC on the table tomorrow for the first time. I think it's my new favorite and I haven't even played yet! |

Lovely work, well done. I'm a little bit obsessed with CoC at the moment, bolt action is fun but CoC is the first game i've played in a long time that really feels 'right' (ridiculousy nebulous, I know :) ). |
