We are back after a bit of a break with another pint sized campaign.

This is the opening game in ‘A Driving Charge' a campaign for Chain of Command, set in Malaya during late 1941.

The campaign opens with the Japanese moving rapidly to seize key bridges on the main trunk road running south toward Jitra. Their armour has been delayed by the earlier British demolition of bridges in Thailand, but they are not allowing that to disrupt their momentum. The infantry will carry out the assault without waiting for tank support.

The initial scenarios find inexperienced units from the Indian Army trying to hold back aggressive, battle hardened Japanese units, presenting both sides with interesting tactical challenges.

The full report of the first encounter is here: Scenario 1: Probe at Chaglun

This is what makes campaigns worthwhile. A difficult decision about whether to close down the game or push your luck because one more phase' might make the difference.

Very impressive terrain and troops, TP, and a good AAR. What did you do to Dame Fortune, mate? She was certainly not happy with you at the start.

Impressive terrain indeed! Glad to see you back, and provide us with your top-notch AARs.

Great terrain, super troops and lots of imagination in the mix.

Excellent stuff indeed.

Best wishes,

Chris
