Please see link for the third, biggest and last of today's Portable Wargame scenarios, featuring a Corps-level clash between the Germans and the BEF in 1940…

A very impressive battle report. I totally agree about your comments about the rules being suitable for fighting a mini-campaign in a day; that was one of the motivations for writing the rules. All the best, Bob

Thanks Bob. The 'campaign in a day' style of rules is still an underdeveloped part of the hobby I think.

This looks like another great set of rules to try – very interesting to see a high level game working so smoothly.

They really are pretty smooth…it isn't quite as smooth as chess but it is pretty close! The trick I think will be to put a layer of further chrome on it yet retain the speedy and intuitive play.
