A few pics from the first playtest of Battlegroup 84, a Cold War modification of the WW2 system. Soviet advance clashes with West German Panzer grenadiers and US Airborne. Basics worked fine, the leopard 2 turned out to be a rock with its stabilisation and advanced optics traits, the NATO artillery ranged in early on a good position and was able to keep shelling while Soviet rocket barrages did little. Lots to do, but the basics seem sound and everyone enjoyed it. Thanks to Skip and Brian for bringing the models and figures, and for Brian to hosting the first game at the new Hobbyden venue.

terrific work on figures and terrain. If not for the distant shots, one could think these were pictures from real life. |

If only I can get the guys to buy into a resource-management game instead of Flames… |

That's the way I wish all my games looked, e.g. superb, railroad hobby terrain level, with as much realism as possible. Those buildings look especially good, even up close. I mean, like real buildings good. Very impressive work. Anyone know what paint manufacturer and color they used for the West German vehicles? I need to paint some up, and like the colors shown on them, especially the Luchs. |
