Dystopian Wars

Yes thanks to a friend I am slightly enthused about this system. NEVER watch You-tube as it got me interested big time.
So now I am awaiting two fleets and the rules. 
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

FOW Hell Fire & Back.

Played a 1500 point EW from FOW Hell Fire & Back.
Italian Fortress company vs Commonwealth Infantry Company.

Not a pretty game. Mission was Witch's cauldron and for a Fortress company to set up was very difficult indeed. Half the game time was taken in trying to work out how to set the Italians up. With Half of the Brits in reserve there was not enough troops to deal with the defenses. No HE meant the bunkers could not be neutralized and the only rifle company on table made it to the trenches with one stand remaining and assaulted and was eventually wiped out.

Matilda's dodged being penned in and just could not kill any thing, but in return were invincible.

My own fortifications are still under construction.
Oh well better luck next time.

6-1 loss

World War III is coming

Just dug out my Challenger 2 rules for my 1/300th scale moderns that I seem to have lots of.
Reorganising the armies to 1980-1986 standards.
Sorting through my US, Soviet, German, UK and NATO troops.
All excess is being put on E(vil)bay to pay for other projects.
Got rid off so far late 1990's US and North Korean/China. Next up will be 1990's Uk and stock of BTR152's followed by some Russian T80's and BTR60's (the later if I can't find a valid use)

Gave the rules to my Friend Scott to read, so in a few weeks time there will be a battle report. If I don't start using these micros I gotta loose them.
