RECENT BATTLE REPORTS
David Koontz

A fantasy 6mm game set in a coastal eastern European city with 6 factions all fighting for control of the radio station, hospital, docks, etc. [1 Jun 1999]

John Hingley-Hickson

My last battle was the British involvement in the battle for the Ardennes (something which is not well written about).

TAC:WWII as usual gave a thoroughly good feel for the battle, the tactics used and the formations. It allows flexibility, yet accurate historical representation.

In this battle, the guards division advanced, to help our American cousins who were in the doo doo, YET AGAIN. The British advanced with the armour taking on the King Tigers, while the infantry took the Panzer Grenadiers. This action was a delaying action until the rest of the division was able to arrive and halt the German advance. Very thrilling action with the armour almost being destroyed, while the infantary held their own. The whole flavour of the game could only be experianced through Tac. [6 Apr 99]

Two German tank battalions, two infantry batalions and a motorcycle battalion attacked a Soviet force of two infantry battalions, one cav regiment and a tank regiment. Important lessons learned - Pz111 can't afford to trade blows with T34 and KV1s. [28 Mar 99]

Alex Kirk

Last night we played a real hum-dinger. Rommels attack at the 1st battle of El Alamein. Except that this time Rommel got enough gas to do the wide swing he wanted. Mass death & destruction never before seen by man. A good time was had by all! ;-) [28 Mar 99]
