A game for those who like their World War II re-enactments very, very small.

Was it because of the Recce characteristic that they were beaten with a stick? How did they come to their demise?

I haven't really found those rules to be much of a problem, to be honest. The local club got together last night for one last test before the Kelowna tournament and my Puma force just steamrolled a Strelkovy horde. Couldn't believe it.

Also, the fact that almost everything now is difficult going for terrain...really screws a light tank.

Where in Kelowna? A local game store? My parents live near Kelowna; I will have to check it out next time I visit.

Yeah last time I was in Kelowna I saw a game store, but it was a holiday weekend, and couldnt check it out, though back then I was still into 40k... It was near my brother-in-laws' place.

Man furiously painting up the French... but I'm getting there, and they look really good. No pics this time, as for Game Summit, the guy who won Best Painted saw my finished army and redoubled his efforts hahaha, and won!
