I am looking for World War One scenarios involving the Belgians. Something probably on the company/battalion level. Is there any scenario books that cover the Belgians?

Apologies but just to double-check – you are wanting scenarios that involve a company or, at most, a battalion on-table? Are you interested in early war or in the mobile warfare period when the Germans began abandoning Belgium in late 1918?

At most a few battalions (depending on the man to figure ratio) and the early period. Thank you.

There is a scenario here:

It was created for Great War Spearhead, which uses a company as the basic stand. This is a higher level than you are thinking about but the general idea behind the scenario should offer some food for thought.

Robert – Thank you kindly! Gives me some inspiration and I am in the process of joining the GWSH Yahoo group.

"Bloody Picnic" by Caliver Books has two scenario books. Scenario Book #2: "1914 The First Battles in the West" has three Belgian scenarios.

Pleasure. The Battle of the Silver Helmets (aka Battle of Halen) can be found here:

There are additional scenarios in the forthcoming GWSH supplement.
