AAR: Somewhere Near Calais
/Originally posted 18th April 2013
Although some people are now sending me their battle reports direct*, I do still make sure that I regularly search the Internet to make sure I have reproduced every AAR out there on this site.
This does sometimes cause a few problems as my language skills are sometimes just not up to the task!
Here then is an AAR translated from the Hungarian. Google gave me the base text: all the other mistakes are mine!
AAR: Sainte Melotte
/Originally posted 8th April 2013
The latest episode in my Blenneville or Bust! campaign. The Germans counter-attack, with theschwerepunkt being the small Normandy village of Saint Melotte.
But who would my opponent be? Read the AAR to understand what on earth I'm babbling on about!

AAR: Near Belle Maison
/Originally posted 31st March 2013
I took advantage of the Bank Holiday to get in only my second actual wargame this year: plenty or writing and painting done, but not much gaming as real life bite back with a vengeance.
The game played was one of the scenarios from the Blenneville or Bust! scenario pack: #2B Near Belle Maison. Those of you who favour the Allies and have a nervous disposition may want to look away now!
