I was in the mood to do an East Front game and hadn't gotten my Pz38ts and multitudes of T26s out lately so went with a table inspired by actions with the 7th Panzer and 3rd Mech Corp in Lithuania early in Operation Barbarossa.
Almost all armor for this game-Well, 1941 standards for armor at any rate. I Ain't Been Shot Mum rules

That does look fantastic, especially for a micro-armor game.

Are the scenario details (OBs, map) published anywhere? It's been too long for my Pz38s as well.

Not from a published scenario, but if you click on the pics you will see the AAR and forces.
Thanks,

Howdy,

Nice looking table, but where is the infantry?

Ponder on,

I think so people just wanna make noise and aren't worth replying to with their obvious lack of observation.

Another excellent looking game, Mark! It looks like fun.

Mark L – you never disappoint!

I think this is perhaps the largest battle I've seen you post. At least the largest battle using IABSM.

Really a tremendous battle report. I will want to re-read it a dozen times. So much to see … to absorb.

Stunning stuff. Many tanks for posting.

Thanks guys. I think that one might have had the greatest proportion of abandoned to destroyed tanks I've seen in a game.
