Yes Gentle readers , after almost four years in their boxes the 15mm Moderns collections gets a short run out.
British Challenger tanks with added stowage. 15mm Old Glory models. Painted by me. |
The Tantobie Warfare and Tactical Society met last Saturday in our newish venue for the July game.
Andrew the Tekkie was in the chair and decided on a Moderns game using my 15mm Brits and 'Harrquis'- which are not at all for the Gulf Wars (!) Rules were a new set to us- Cold War Commander- second Edition.
To be honest I was a bit sceptical as Cold War Commander had filled me with ire and tedium when we tried it and I suspected the same here. But no there were much better. A full game report will appear in due course on Andrew's Blog Tantobie Internet Tattle so suffice it to say that I rather liked these- a bit dice heavy and slow until you get to know them- the IGOUGO system slows things down as always- but they do have something so they are not to be consigned straight to the bin like the first edition.
I can defintely see these being used again.
Warrior IFV's some with WRAP extra armour infantry behind- in game terms actuall in the vehicles of course. Old Glory Models again painted by me. |
Pictures are all from my own collection. Most of the models both Vehicles and infantry are from the Old Glory Command Decision Moderns range.
The only game shot I took. British recon bugs out as the enemy appear while the Challengers move up to engage. T-72s and BMP s Again all Old Glory Models in 15mm from my own collection. |
Very nice models indeed!
