I have now uploaded two more playtest AARs from Lard Island's play-testing of Charlie Don't Surf.
I have now uploaded the four playtest AARs from Lard Island's play-testing of Charlie Don't Surf. Very exciting stuff!
Four new AAR's added, all from the All American 82nd Airborne scenario pack. Inspired by Martin 981463's fantastic 20mm game, I went back and loaded up the three playtest battle reports from the Durham boys. Click on the links to read the reports.
I've also added links to all Kev (Fat Wally)'s battle reports to make your browsing even easier.
"My God! It's A Monster!" Richard Clarke with a report on the latest play-test for IABSM III.
This brings the number of AARs on the site up to fifty: crackingly good reads with lots of inspiring photographs!
Battle report and photographs from Scenario 8 of the Sealion scenario pack.
Battle report and photographs from Scenario 1 of the Cymru Am Byth scenario pack, covering the actions of the Welsh Guards around Arras.
Two AARs from George Gouveia from the first two scenarios from the D-Day supplement Where The Hell Have You Been, Boys?
This year's TFL Games Day focussed on the Allied airborne landings that were the immediate precursor to D-Day. Lardies throughout the world played games themed around this event.
Broadly speaking, activities at Lard HQ focused on the British 6th Airborne Division's operations; whilst other islands of Lard around the globe played games focusing on the US 82nd Airborne Division's operations.
In all, fourteen games were played: reports are here.
More photographs from the recent 2008 Games Day, where the same four scenarios were used by Lardies around the world to give the rules a final play-test before publication.
We now have photographs from Lard Island; Denmark; Tasmania and North California.

After a work- and baby-enforced absence, a whole raft of battle reports added:
Â
An excellent report, with plenty of pictures, of how the "Lardies West of the Rockies" fought their first battle from the Fall of the Liongate scenario pack.
Report from a playtest of Scenario 20 of the soon-to-be-released Anzio supplement. The Germans try to break through the US lines as part of Operation Fischfang.
Scenario One from the Fall of the Lionsgate supplement: the Japanese enter WW2 at Kota Bahru, Singapore (not Pearl Harbour: due to international time zones, the attack on Kota Bahru was actually before Pearl Harbour).
Exciting action from the Kranji Penninsular. Will the Ockers hold the Japs at bay?
More battle reports loaded. This time we have two from the Charlemagne mini-campaign from the 2006 Xmas Special, and two from the Fall of the Liongate scenario supplement.
Three AARs from Ed Sturges added
I have uploaded around five battle reports that Richard Clarke had previously posted on the TFL Yahoo Group.
A battle report from Martin Bailey added to the Tales from Vyazma sub-section. The Soviets get a bloody nose near Belyj.
