Easter Weekend Battle - Storming the Steni Gefyra !

 


Decided to set up a game as the weather is typical Bank Holiday mix ! . A scratch force of the Helenyka Republic have been sent to hold the Simantike Perasma from an invading force of the Sublime Porte . I will of course be using 'A Gentleman's War' rules and my Balkans war Imagination 40mm collection .


The Sublime Porte column marches onto the tabletop using the main road and their Commanding Officer sets up his command post at the Old Inn ..


They have brought along their Heavy Artillery which opens fire with effect !


The Sublime Porte's Commander Omar Sharif Pasha .


Prince Ludwigs Bavarian Volunteers (semi flats) sent by Bavaria to aid the Helenyka Republic .


Members of the secret 'Blacl Hand' revolutionary group have responded to the Republics call for aid ! . The only Regular Helvenyk unit is a Artillery Field Gun and crew , they are hoping for reinforcements before the enemy can attack in force .


Sublime Porte Border troops try to sneak up on the defenders - I will report back when the action starts ......

  3. These games just look like fun-on-a-stick - I don't know what it is about the look and scenario but they just tickle my fancy.
