PDF link Roger Burley and I got together this past weekend and played a 20mm, squad on squad game of Final Combat. We played German and British paratroopers, with one piece of armor each. It was supposed to be a meeting engagement, but Roger came in at the village and hunkered down. So, I went in after him. I ought not to have done that. Read the AAR and you'll see why. I hope you enjoy it. |

Thanks John…I've been watching your videos, and they are brilliant. You must tell me where you got that gorgeous cobblestone road system. Ben |

Why paint up nice models and terrain, then cover them with markers? |

The markers facilitate the playing of a realistic and exciting skirmish game/scenario. Final Combat would probably not appeal to someone who is more interested in aesthetics than a historical tactical challenge. |
