The hills have been finished for months but we finally were able to organise everybody to play the game. As a bonus, the game was hosted by a fellow who has turned his basement into a war museum: More pictures and info on my blog.

Great looking game! I don't know how you managed to play it though I would have constantly been out in that trench line ensuring that the Germans were not sneaking through the wire.

Hills look great! And nice to have a full size trench around.

I agree. That looks like my future manacle (trench) when I retire.

Great looking game and museum. He should charge $5 USD at the door just to step inside.

An impressive museum and gaming table. That is quite the military history ambiance for a war game. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thank you guys; it was a great time. With 8 players at the table there was lots to look at and read when you weren't in the thick of the action. We will probably plan some more games there.

Great-looking table! The buildings aren't quite appropriate, but the hills, grass, roads, etc. are amazing!
