Just before Christmas we played a game of IABSM to try out the rules as a group. It was a fictional scenario set in the aftermath of the Battle of Slim River when the Japanese forces were running riot in the Allied rear areas. Have a read of the battle report here:

Nice AAR and while a fictional battle a fairly historical result given the Japanese successes in Malaysia in 1942

Thanks, yes, so far 99% of our Malaya games have ended this way. There's been a couple of surprises though.

Good stuff, keep them coming. Would be nice to see how you play through their Malaya scenario book.

Thanks, we have only just begun playing with IABSM and I have the Malaya handbook, which I will be using for the other scenarios. However, we were playing the Malaya campaign using Rapid Fire and Michael A Sayce's campaign guide for that. You can see some of the older AARs if you click here: link
