Nicely done. Thank you. Just thinking. You could leave a board up for "British in Afghanistan" or even "British Outpost in Afghanistan" and keep changing out the castings between games. (Same thing works for American "woodland wars" of course.) |

Robert,
Good points on re-using the terrain set up. As our games are held in the public space we cannot leave a board up, but the terrain can certainly be re-used in a different scenario. I recently did this with a WWII skirmish game at a local convention. The small village was repurposed in the next session for a Three Musketeers scenario by taking out the vehicles and moving a few pieces around. |

Patrick put this game on at GenCon this year. He ran a great game, nail bitingly close and it was a great time for all of us players. After talking the game over with the lads the next morning id say he sold a few sets of the Bigger Battles too. |
