TOPIC: Flers 1916 |
Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 26th Sep 2016 07:31:08 On Sunday we started a scenario based around the first use of tanks at Flers using Great War Spearhead 2. We got around halfway through and hope to finish it another time http://pushingtinwargames.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/flers-1916.html Here are the scenario notes http://pushingtinwargames.blogspot.co.uk/p/flers-1916.html |
That does look superb. A little goes a long way |

Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 27th Sep 2016 02:20:26 Hurrah! I'm working on some later French at the moment, still hoping to get some action in around Verdun before the end of the year... |

Standard User Posts: 182 rsjahn 5th Dec 2016 07:56:36 Really inspiring. I especially like the one tank in Flers, very much the real thing :-) Are the buildings from PaperTerrain, with a little extra-interior? My french and german armies are nearly done, but by now no trenches at all. Hopefully I will start my first battle at the end of the year. |
Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 5th Dec 2016 08:45:45 Yes Paper Terrain buildings, well spotted. It was rather pleasing getting one tank into Flers :) |
