The first game of the new year: World War Two US troops desperately try to repel an invasion from Space Bugs!
A couple of after action reports from the Christmas period.
First off, Katzenstein uses his British infantry for the first time and, apparently, and unlike whenever I put any newly painted troops on the table, they seem to have won!
Secondly, Sergeant Steiner tries IABSM for the first time.
Those of you who follow this site regularly will remember that battle four in Benito's Vyazma or Bust! campaign had ended in a draw. Votes were called for, and the overwhelming response was for Benito to play the game again as if the Germans had renewed their assault on Yelna the next day.
Here's the report of what happened. Another close game!
Everyone is going Vyazma or Bust crazy! Not only do we have Benito submitting battle reports faster than I can get them loaded up, but here's a great report by Brian Weathersby from a game featuring scenario 2A: the Bridge at Urk.
Back to Benito's Vyazma or Bust campaign. This time the action moves into Yelna, and street fighting occurs.
Benito returns to I Ain't Been Shot, Mum! with an AAR taken from the Where The Hell Have You Been, Boys? scenario pack: the Battle for Neuville.
An excellent Charlie Don't Surf AAR from Benito and his friends in Spain. Some lovely photos.
Well, Benito and his friends in Spain are playing through the Vyazma or Bust campaign almost too fast for me to keep up with their battle reports!
Here are the AAR from the second and third games in the campaign.
First up is Belyj, second is On The Road to Pochinok.
Benito turns his hand to the Second World War, and the first scenario from the Vyazma or Bust! campaign: Izdeshkovo.
Not a good result for the Germans!

A couple of battle reports from Norseygamer. These are both played solo in 20mm on an enormous 8" by 4" table!
Both are from scenario packs. The first is our first AAR from the new Blenneville or Bust! supplement (see below): British tanks and infantry attempt to capture Avaux.
The second is from the Vyazma or Bust! supplement: the climatic battle in the campaign set on the outskirts of Vyazma. The Germans are attacking, and get a bit of a shock when the Soviet armoured train de-cloaks!
