(Gnome Wars) Game Prep - Part Duex

This week I've been stealing away to the garage, not to clean it out (and oh does it need it), but to play a few turns of the Fort in the Teutonburg Forest. Monday was two rounds, Tuesday two more, and tonight I got at least five rounds done.


First, the picture:

Yeah, it ain't Miniature Building Authority. The "bridge" is the carboad top for a pack of ATKM minis, and the walls of the "estate" are foam pieces from one of Maja's gift, but a little gray spray paint, a $30 bridge, and some lichen and it's passable.

Of course, painting figs might be good too...

Ten turns into it, numerous units are wiped out, one of those has already achieved a partial victory, and a "super-team" is storming the estate. The "column" of remaining German vehicles are making a break for it through the bridge defended by Sikhs (the playing pieces).

I'm still trying to balance the artillery/vehicle/machine gun ratios, but melee is deadly. Unfortunately I won't be running this at Mepacon (reason: life).
