This game was really the last scenario in Len Tracey's Malaya 1942 mini campaign from the TooFatLardies special of a couple of years ago. It was the 10th game that we had done in this series. After #9 the original Aussie platoon under Lt Archie Cobb had been reduced to just a few men so this was beefed up with replacements to such a degree that it was now Green. This is really a bonus game as the Japanese offensive is behind schedule. The scenario involves a Japanese assault on a bridge over a canal. We made this into a 4 player game with 2 Green Aussies platoons and 1 Japanese infantry platoon and a big tank force of 3 Type 95s and 2 Type 97s. We really love this series and had some great cinematic moments already. 20mm minis Link to Flickr pics and AAR: link ‌Australian players plan their strategy by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌2 pdr opens up by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Japanese around the flank by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Halfway to the bridge by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌No advance against the Aussie right by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌More Japanese tanks by Mark Luther, on Flickr Mark

Beautiful layout and excellent kit, though it would have been good had a proper camera been in the room!
