Monday 3rd April 2017 - WDW
"Chain of Command" - another wrestle with the rules by Tim & Andrew. Brits v Germans somewhere in war-torn Normandy.
"Bolt Action" - American v Germans
DBM - Northern Dynasties Chinese v Huns (another fantasy game). The terrain fell to my liking thereby constricting my opponents manoeuvrability. Unfortunately my sub-general advanced his Sp(I) a bit too far - was softened up by Bw(I) then crunched by Kn(F). Seems that I am still on a loosing streak!
