Proposal for BAD game Thu 9th August 2018
The Battle of Amiens, which began on 8 August 1918, was the opening phase of the Allied offensive later known as the Hundred Days Offensive that ultimately led to the end of the First World War.
I propose that we mark this by utilising Scenario 4 on the back page 64 of the Square Bashing Army List Book.
If you are interested in taking part and/ or can provide relevant figures then please let me know ASAP with details and composition of your LW British & German armies. Depending on this response we will run 1, 2 or 3 tables of the Peter Pig scenario exactly as written played side by side.
Ray
That is the Thursday a day before Britcon Friday.
Having said that I am interested as I am not going to Britcon.
Hi I am in Got both forces all options
That’s great Peter. Please let me have a list of any spare British or German units after your muster for the Scenario . The aim is to replicate the Scenario RAW multiple times so we will need to provide loaner armies.
I’ll give it a go but I’ll need some guidance as I’ve only played SB a couple of times a long time ago.
Noting Bob’s point & having discussed this with some of the key players/ army owners I think it’s more viable to postpone it until after Britcon, As I’m away touring Ypres during the following week I now propose Thu 23rd August 2018.
Andy, this will give us time to fit in a gentle game introductory game of Square Bashing if you would like.
Thanks to Ray for organising last night and to Paul for such a good spirited game. If the other half of my army had turned up it may have been very different result.
Interesting to see such a wide variance in results over the 4 tables with the same forces and terrain allotted to each player.
