Week after my birthday I was allowed out to go gaming at the Hobby Bunker and helped a club member play test a Battle of Stalingrad scenario using Poor Boody Infantry rules modified for 28mm gaming- was a ton of fun and I steamrolled some croation nazis (just played the same game at a small convention and played the German and Croats and very nearly won a major victory- some lucky dice rolls in the last turn let the soviets recapture an objective I was holding and gave them a minor victory.)<br /><br />But anyhow after the first play test we hit the local Irish pub for excellant pub grub and even better beer, then two of us went back to the bunker to run a KH games. ON the fly I set up 2 sathar destroyters & a CL vs 2 UPF frigates, a CL and 2 assault scouts (I played the sathar)<br /><br />My friend who is new to the game tried to be fancy and did a scissoring attack trying to bring in his scout ships on and then the heavier ships on 2 separate trejectories unfortunately for him the table size is 4' X 6' and that doesn't give you room to maneuver much using miniatures. Plus I'm a big believer in concentration of firepower and seeking to defeat an enemy in detail so I flew right at his hevier ships and pounded them to scrap before the scout ships could get into play. the Assault scouts were going to handle me roughly in the turn after we called the game but I had already crippled one frigate and destroyed the other and the CL.<br /><br /><img src="/files/u4436/Mar20th_001_0.jpg" width="600" height="450" /><br /><img src="/files/u4436/Mar20th_002.jpg" width="600" height="450" /><br /><img src="/files/u4436/Mar20th_003.jpg" width="600" height="450" />
