playing actual forces against each other one of our members decided to build a cold war imagi nation based on the order of battle and camouflage of the polish army in 1939 and using the modern equipment of the manufacturers they used in the 30 s so vickers tank of 1939 becomes what s the available vickers tank of 1979 the result is the oob over here and here are some pictures vickers mk 3 tank company armoured cavalry regiment panhard m3 apcs and aml 90 armoured cars well another club member who has an odd penchant for thinking about what medieval byzantium may look like in any period you care to name followed suit and built byzantium s imaginary forces in the cold war taking a lead from the forces of the cold war border neutrals like austria finland and yugoslavia the army order of battle is described over here and here are some pictures byzantine thematic brigade tank co t 55 tanks and daimler dingos with at 4 spigot at missiles finland and yugoslavia both found it politic to use predominantly soviet equipment well into the 70 s but mixed it with own design and increasingly western equipment as with all imagi nations borders are quite vague so vague in fact that these two nations find they are in dispute over their joint border and tensions are rising there are fears that there may well be a full scale border incident in the very near future so you want to build your own imagi nation imagi nations are great fun for combining equipment you otherwise don t see together or what if organisation structures and 1 300 scale means even building a decent sized force is not exorbitant in fistful of tows one model or one infantry stand represents a platoon sized unit so a battalion is usually c 9 12 models even less so if you build it out from a core force say a soviet or us supplied core force in this era how do you do it simple invent a country imagine a history build an army and assert your right to rule there are fellow iamgi nation enthusiasts in most periods tmp has a section modern what ifs where they gather for this period posted by freecloud at 20 57 1 comment tuesday 27 october 2015 war of spanish succession in 10mm for tricorne fans benefit of 10mm scale here is you don t have to paint the lace french and bavaarians vs dutch and palatine approx 1705 french and bavarians assaulting a prepared position and trying to turn the dutch line figures all pendraken rules are the general de brigade variant called british grenadier rules are written for awi but have a lot of mechanisms that suit the wss and syw we were play testing to see if the rules worked and broadly they did what we hoped will need to tweak but all war gamers want to tweak rules posted by freecloud at 17 25 no comments saturday 24 october 2015 silver at golden daemon warlords member ellis kaye scored silver at the 2015 gw world golden daemon painting competition with his cryptus karlean duel based on the box art ogle below posted by freecloud at 20 50 no comments thursday 8 october 2015 the fight at chukkawanna creek from club member iain fuller s blog about a good night at the warlords last night i had the pleasure in playing another of phil andrew s crazy horse s fury plains war games where my brave hunkpapa sioux took on the 2nd cavalry to prevent them moving a wagon over a creek and off the table no doubt for various nefarious reasons the us force was of 4 companies of cavalry 2 veterans and 2 new recruits with a crow scout troop and a wagon containing something or other either the payroll or working cartridges we couldn t decide which they were controlled by philip and darren i controlled 4 bands of sioux 2 were warriors and 2 were boys not great at shooting as they had yet to obtain rifles but very game and eager to get stuck in field of the action with my side of the creek nearest the camera the wagon had to be exited anywhere on this edge i was allowed to set up each warband either in cover or behind a hill so that they were not visible to the yellow legs until they got close enough to try and see me needed to get 4 6 if the crow s and 5 or 6 if regular troopers i think i duly marked the map and hoped my cunning plan was cunning enough the two older warbands were placed in the rough ground brighter green patches to the left and the furthest right of the table with one of the boys bands hidden in the copse by the creek the last band was behind the right hand hill on my side of the creek either to be used as a reserve or as a last gasp ambush attempt on the wagon if everyone else got mullered earlier these rules are a good deal of fun and whilst being simple have enough subtleties to make them really interesting each unit has to draw a commander chit which has a characteristic on it that will either bring a benefit or hindrance to their units performance for example my old mate talkheaps was drawn for one of my warbands which meant that instead of automatic activation i had to roll a d6 get a 1 and the unit was inactive that go the cavalry drew their own version of this west pointer the cavalry are quite lethal once they get dismounted and start firing plus they have longer range than the indians but the indians can move further each go and can move fire and move in a turn instead of just move and fire which gives them more fluidity plus they are a bit more lethal in melee so both sides have their pluses and minuses i won t be able to do a blow by blow account of the battle as it was really fluid all the way through again one of the great things about this game but here s the basic outline after the crow s nearly spotted my left hand band i decided to break cover with them and leg it over the creek planning to either draw a unit after them so that the waiting boys in the copse for could spring an ambush or if that didn t happen to go into reserve to be used where needed over on the right darren s troops were getting mighty close to spotting my braves so i sprang an ambush which managed to hit home but i started an unbelievably inept sequence of rolls in melee so the attack was quite ineffectual the crow scouts and a company then started probing towards the woods and i unleashed the boys from there in another surprise attack again they charged home on blue bellies but again not with the desired effect some of the damn yellow legs prepare to escort the wagon i think i see a reason for subsequent bad shooting crow scouts get ready to do some scouting wagon ho braves break from cover in surprise attack and get promptly flanked manage to escape unharmed though where d they go from this moment on the battle ended up as a series of moves to contact from the indians with which i failed to do much damage from the melee or the cavalry would move into range to unleash a volley at me and roll a 1 or 2 honestly they rolled about ten 1 s all night hence causing no casualties or i would move into range fire get a 5 or 6 forcing the cavalry unit back then retire myself to keep out of range i therefore managed to hold the line of the creek whilst forcing the wagon to withdraw to prevent it from being captured boys charge out of the copse holding the line of the creek i did manage to rout away one cavalry unit with a successful charge by the boys this company being wiped out by fire when it returned but the boys came a cropper themselves when they tried to evict the crows from the copse and nearly got cleaned out themselves over on the other flank the other boys band had a terribly ineffectual in the rocks with some veteran cavalry and retired back behind the creek by the end the cavalry had started to unjam their rifles and cause losses on the braves so i started to fall back further and further now not being strong enough to cause much damage myself as time was getting on we called the game and i believe a morale victory was gained by the indians as the cavalry failed to get the wagon off the table but i had suffered quite a lot of casualties in the process cavalry take the rocks boys fail to evict them hoka hey up and at em boys a great game again and i m looking forward to play another one in the future here s a few pictures of des and ian s game of 6mm napoleonics general de brigade prussians v french that was going on behind us game looked great so had to take some photos 6mm napoleonic goodness en avant deploying vat is the wurst that
