"Last weekend was our club Open Day and I put on a 28mm game from the Soviet Afghan War using the Force on Force rules. The scenario was a sweep and clear operation by Soviet forces designed to flush out an eliminate Mujahideen fighters who had been attacking the Soviet's supply convoys. The Soviets had a motorised infantry platoon in three BTR-70s and the Afghans had three small teams on board with variable reinforcements arriving during the game…" The Wargame Shed Blog link Armand

Great mini and terrain There is a neat little book called "The Bear Went Over the Mountain" about Soviet small forces engagements in Afghanistan – a surprisingly honest assessment of what went well and what didn't

The game looks great. The Bear Went Over the Mountain (I wonder if that's also a Russian children's song) is available on Kindle for a good price. I might add it to my list of things to read someday.
