The boys have been having fun while I'm away. The Chernaya produced a classic ding-dong scrap. Photo-heavy AAR from four different points of view here:

Thanks, Ferd. I figure TMPers hear enough of me droning on – it was time to give some other witty and talented voices a chance for a change.

That's a very attractive layout. I really like the way it conveys the sense of a battle spread out over a significant area, with lots of room for manoeuvre. These must be good rules!

Cheers, colkitto! Certainly our aim in creating BBB was to fit an entire battle on a 6'x4' table and make it playable in an evening, with plenty of manoeuvre, not incremental grind. We achieved that to our satisfaction, to the point that it is still our group's staple diet after more than a decade. For less biased views, you might consult the ~1,000 members of the BBB group on groups.io:
