Ollie paints.... Flames of War (Take 2) (Slow Grow League)
First Outing...
Went up to Battlefield Hobbies for an intro game ahead of the Hobby League kick off today…. Managed to knock up a 100pt list after raiding the Mid War units and played the Breakthrough mission…. much fun was had and came away with a glorious victory! Had I remembered to fire the M10s on the last turn I would have tabled them (We played out them firing after the game had finished to see what if), but managed to get them the run away having killed the HQ Panther early on and made a mess of the remaining units (including 2 Tigers)
Looking forward to playing more!
Ambushing Sherman 76mms is the trees and Sherman 105mms making a mess of a PzIV platoon
Great stuff buddy, glad to hear you enjoyed your game. That looks like a nice table to have played on!
Your opponent needed more Stugs! Really nice terrain as well – the narrow lanes with the bocage is very nice touch.
They weren’t facing the M10s en-masse, and they had plenty to fight back with! 🙂
Here’s the lists:
US
Vet Sherman HQ
4x Vet Sherman 75mms
4x Vet Sherman 76mms
4x Vet Sherman 105mms
4x M10s
Armoured Rifle Platoon
Germans
Panther HQ
3x Panthers
2x Tigers
4x PzIVs
short PanzerGrenadier Platoon
That looks like a great table to play on.
Your lucky to have somewhere nice to travel to and play great games.
