We replayed one of our favourite Battlefront WWII learning scenarios the other day – a quick play game set during the Battle of the Bulge, Kampfgruppe Peiper – The Sanatorium by Richard de Ferrars.
It was played in 20mm using the Battlefront WWII rule set. The game went badly for the Americans, almost entirely because of some formidable die rolling on the part of the Germans. But the game photographed nicely and gave me a chance to set up a Christmassy table.
Interestingly enough I replayed it with another player a week later, exact same German set up, and the result was the the absolute opposite!
The full AAR can be found here:http://tinywarsplayedindoors.blogspot.ca/

Is "Me" a Japanese model railway company? Do you have a site link?

Andygamer,

Har! No, not a Japanese model railway company. I took "manufactures" in the original sense but it's perhaps a bit misleading, as they are all one-offs for my own games.
