Soviets vs my West Germans, ground to a standstill after both sides lost about 2/3 of their forces. One turn saw 6bmps offed by five Marders! Very bloody game, great fun. Milan teams holding on for dear life, rampaging T-64s, dodgy Soviet morale rolls that saw one flank suddenly disintegrate (KGB will be asking questions). The Russians took the hills that were their first objective, but failed to get to the vital road junction (and local branch of Aldi), whilst the West Germans held the swimming pool!!!!

1. Blucher
2. Spanish against French
3. Yes
4. no
5. Solo

Spanish mullered the French!

Excellent

What sort of scale is Sabre Squadron? Havent played Cold War games for a few years and found that CWC just didn't really do it for me.

Looking to game 70's/80's in Germany

1. BBB

2. Union v. Confederate, Champion Hill 1863

3. Very

4. Have played a number of games now, since first publication. All have been ACW or FPW so far. FAW and APW in the offing.

5. Two.

Any scale you like! This week's was 15mm (ranges felt very, close) but we've played 10mm and I've seen 6mm too.

1: Polemos SYW (Army Scale)

2: Austrian vs Prussian: Refight of the battle of Kolin, 1757

3: Yes

4:Yes/ No - first game for the Austrian player

5: 2 plus umpire

A hard fought victory for the Prussians, aided by some lucky rolls and a little inexperience by the Austrian player.

Nice one. Good to hear it fits six mil as that fits my collection. It looks like company level? Can it handle battalions and any thoughts on its suitability for solo gaming?

I've asked Nick who wrote the rules to pop by and tell you mate, he is a forum member.
