An AAR from the last battle of 2011. A tale of mismatched sides and an attempt at shameful gamesmanship!
A magnificent day's gaming today!
It's always nice to welcome a new player to your favourite set of rules, so I was very pleased to be invited round to new-to-IABSM Paul's house for a game.
Here is the report of how we played the "A Canadian VC" scenario from the IABSM3 rulebook not once, not twice, but three times in a row. I'm shattered!
A great Charlie Don't Surf AAR from Benito in Spain...and even on Christmas Eve I covet that tabletop!
It's off to Sicily for two great AARs covering battles from the Sicilian Weekend scenario pack.
First, Brian Cantwell takes us along the Road to Scoglitti, where US Airborne troops take on Tigers with nothing more than grit and determination.
Secondly, Robert Avery (i.e. me) follows the fortunes of the same paratroopers as they fight for their lives along the Biazza Ridge. The Tigers are on the rampage again!
Ed Sturges takes us to Normandy for another great IABSMv3 battle

My first game of IABSM3, using one of the "IABSM3 compatible" scenarios from the newly revised Vyazma or Bust scenario pack.
Three After Action Reports posted today, all of which have previously been posted on the TFL Yahoo Group.
First up is the report from a game held at Stockholm Spelkonvent: a thrilling tale of two iron crosses!
Then it's a Vietnam game from Brian Weatherby held at Milleniumcon 14 using the first scenario from the Surf's Up scenario pack.
Finally, Max Maxwell reports on his last game of IABSM2...before, of course, moving on to IABSM3!
Our Penguin friends report on their first game of IABSM3: a demo game at Igloo Con 2011.

Another superb AAR from Richard Clarke introducing the new third edition IABSM rules.
This time it's a tank-focussed game that introduces the new Aces concept.
