The idea behind this Chain of Command game was a German attempt to slip around the lines of defending Soviet Naval troops outside of Sevastopol. The Russians rush a unit to their flank to stem the maneuver and keep the high ground. I used the Swift to Support scenario from Blitzkrieg book. Jon was the defending Soviets and he could not get any support til Turn 2. No armor, arty or entrenchments, but plenty of hard cover to set up in. Game was at GigaBites Café in Marietta GA using my 15mm minis Link to flickr link ‌Sailors in the rocks by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌German left flank by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌MMGs shooting the grenadiers in by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Grenadiers in the rocks by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Maxim support by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Jon shoring up his right by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Ready for the rush by Mark Luther, on Flickr Mark

Superb AAR, Mark. Another amazing job! Figures, terrain, scenario, and pics/story telling all come together. A feast for the imagination. I bet it was a fun and challenging game, too. But if I was playing, I'd probably have been so focused on the exceptional levels of modelling on display that I doubt I would have played my best. It'd be like trying to play chess in a movable championship diorama. It's always a pleasure to see your postings… -Mark (aka: Mk 1)
