WWI - French Assault of German Trench system - Nivelle Offensive 1917



The battle played out over two nights. First night, late start as the French\Germans had to do planning before we could truly begin. We played two hours after that and got in all the preliminary bombardment (3 days) and 3 turns. We then finished (or nearly finished) on the second night and got through 5 more turns. This is a long battle report and I hope you make it the end!

Mighty Armies on Mars Army Lists



Mighty Armies on Mars The Army Lists are intended to assist players in designing balanced and realistic scenarios based on the planet Mars as depicted in classic Victorian literature. The armies and in fact the scenarios that will no doubt be played out using them are not designed for the hard science fiction genres, but for more of a romanticized view of Mars as seen by the Victorian era. This is the Mars of HG Wells, Jules Verne and CS Lewis, it’s not the MARS of Ray Bradbury or Robert Heinlein and it sure as heck isn’t Philip K Dick or Greg Bear’s Mars. But enough literary references, this is the romanticized era of a dying planet being discovered by the vibrant young cultures of its nearest neighbor. This book contains three eras of Mars wargaming allowing wargames to be set in any of three eras. Please note that none of these eras a fully fleshed out as full campaign settings. There are plenty of campaign settings, a lot with their own line of miniatures and some with roleplaying or wargame rules. These army lists are meant for casual gamers to pick up miniatures (ours or another company’s) and play using Mighty Armies rules.

All Quiet on the Martian Front: Assault on Greer Gulch, Montana



The Scenario:  Sappington is a minor town, one of many standing as an output to the many gorges serving as choke points in the Rocky Mountains.  It stands astride the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad, and needs to be defended by reason of it's location, rather than any strategic value.
