Dave put on a modern 20mm skirmish set in Africa around 2010 using the Force on Force rules. I haven't played these rules but I'd heard good things about them and I was interested to see how they played. Dave gave a broad brush scenario that he'd cobbled together due to time constraints. So in my blog post I allowed my imagination go wild, although I suspect some of the ideas came from reading other peoples blogs. The figures are mostly Liberation Miniatures and the vehicles are mainly pre-painted models you can buy. The scenario: West Africa 2010 The Western backed government had been overthrown and the US had gone in to support it. The legitimate government's enclave centred on the country's main port had been coming under sustained artillery fire. US Marines are dispatched to silence the multiple rocket launcher hampering the build up of government forces. How it played is detailed here: My forces defend the village against the US Marines thewargamingmegalomaniac.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/2015-02-22-conwy-wargames-club-force-on.html

Excellent report. We tried FoF a couple of times and they weren't for us. |

Good looking game. Gamecraft miniatures makes markers you can use to note immobilized/damaged vehicles and unit status. |
