Here is last night's effort .. a 6mm engagement set in France in 1940, BEF defending against the 8th Panzer Division. We used the Spearhead rules system.

Another game, another AAR.. this time Austro-Hungarian troops assaulting Russian defenders in the Carpathians in 1915. It was one heck of a fight.

I've just posted an AAR of our refight of Neufchateau fought today.

House rebuilding has meant that the games room has been a while getting back on its feet. Here is the AAR of our first game in the new wargames room.

Hi.. Only just spotted this discussion.
I wrote the scenario, and it's an absolutely fictional engagement intended to represent some of the issues of the battles.These are in fact artillery...
You can probably guess .. it's summer break here in New Zealand. Another GWSH game (in 20mm again), and another (lavishly) illustrated AAR.

Happy new year everyone. I've just finished uploading a new and lavishly illustrated after action report on a 20mm 1914 game we played using GWSH II called 'Attack in the east 1914'.
I've...

Go for it.. Adrian and I aren't 'hard core' 40K gamers.. we are historical 'gamers playing mostly Volley and Bayonet and Armati. I'm also a Spearhead fan (WW1, WW2 and Moderns) .. but these are a bit...
A good friend and I have reverted to playing 4th Edition 40K.. NOT a rant against what is happening to the game, just a decision that works for the two of us as we hop off the 'escalation train'.

Photo based AAR..

Mulhouse is the first scenario in the forthcoming GWSH scenario book. We played this last night a s apart of our acknowledgement of the outbreak of WW1.
Here is the AAR:...
A relative rarity at the moment.. a HotT (Hordes of the Things) fantasy game.. well any type of game is a rarity just now:

A couple of AARs on my web site with 6mm figures.. take a look at the Cambrai refight.. spectacular.

If you are looking at 6mm then I assume you are interested in larger scale actions (as in higher command level)?
If so, then Great War Spearhead is fantastic (I'm an unashamed fan). Pitches...

These are my rules of choice for re-fighting WW1 battles at divisional and corp level

Been playing some WW2 Spearhead games in 6mm.
Some interesting examples of good and bad deployment.. how to fight the defence, and how not to fight the attack.

Depends upon the level you want to operate your games at. My preference is to operate at that regiment/brigade level, and I really enjoy putting together a plan that allows for the use of div support...
