Inspired by the anniversary of the historic events that transpired in Normandy 75 years ago, I decided to dust off my WWII toys and play through some of the battles from the Blood and Honour series created by Paddy Green and Richard de Ferrars for the Battlefront WWII rules. This has always been my favourite WWII ruleset, but it can be a bit fiddly so I wanted to also test out a simplified version that I had developed to see if it still preserved the overall feel of the game.
Despite frustrating die rolls for the Canadians (me) the Germans (also me) were pleased with the results. Here is a link to the full battle report with lots of pictures: link And here are a few photos from the action.

Wow Stuarts as big as Shermans , lol. You make me want to get out my similar collection which has not been used for a decade. Love all the closely packed terrain. |

Thanks! Yes, I still love my Airfix Shermans – they just fit better on a gaming table. All the spiffy new Plastic Soldier Shermans languish in their box… |
