MWS Open Day
Apologies for the lack of posts last week. What between work being manic and preparing for the club open day on Saturday I havent really had chance to do much else!
In any case I put together a 28mm WW2 game based around the 9th Battalion, 6th Airborne Division on Thursday, 8th June 1944 (two days after D-Day for the uninitiated) and their engagement around the Château St. Côme. Things didnt go quite historically with the 857th Fortress Infantry Regiment turning out to be a little more formidable that expected (thanks to some legendary dice rolling) but, in the end the Paras managed to fight off a German counter attack and secure the Château.
Here are a few photos from my game:
