Howdy, Initial playtest for Historicon – Ukraine 1914. Rules: Command Decision – Test of Battle with 15mm Peter Pig figures A regimental meeting engagement, Austrians vs. Russians Both sides Trained, morale: 8; the Austrian terrain objective was the crossroads, while the Russian terrain objective was a bridgehead. In today's game the Austrians hunkered down and shot up the advancing Russians. Russians took disproportionate losses. Aiming for six players in the convention game; we had two today. A few select photos below. Photo 1 – Overall view of terrain and initial set-up
Photo 2 – Russian battalion advances
Photo 3 – Russian company
Photo 4 – Austrian advance
Photo 5 – Austrian try to find a flank

An interesting map. I see two bridges on the right side. On the left, the road exits the frame. Is there a bridge there as well? Do the Russians start from the far edge in the picture.looks to be an interesting scenario |

myxeemail, Only two bridges in the game, center and Austrian left. I plan to add a third crossing point on the Austrian right for the next playtest. JAS |

Submitted for Historicon, aiming for Friday, 7pm. I scheduled a WW2 scenario for Friday at 2 pm to keep from treading on your toes. My alternative request is for 7 pm Thursday. In hindsight, maybe not a great idea for me to have put a second CD game on the same day. But my options are limited by the volunteering schedule. |

My second game, like yours, is a whole different genre and historical period. Saturday 2 pm or alternative Thursday at 2 pm. |
