Here's a recent solo play-testing of a paired of linked scenarios I wrote for the Battlefront WWII scenario page. They are based on Operation Torso, the New Zealanders' first major attempt to take the Italian hill town of Orsogna on Dec. 7, 1943. The full AAR can be found here: link And here are a few (of many!) pics.

Very nice. Just what we need to see more of on this site. More wargames and less debate. Thanks for sharing. |

Wonderful, Bill! Thank you for sharing. I appreciate your approach as a gamer and modeler. I am stealing your idea about the wedge pieces you created so buildings can be placed on slopes. Simple, yet elegant solution. |

Thanks, Condatta. Yes, steal the building wedgies! I love modelling hilly terrain and it always drives me nuts when the houses are askew. |

Most excellent! Ortona next? |

I wrote a scenario for Ortona a few years ago, but I do think it's time to take it out and dust if off for another play through! Here's the link: PDF link |
