  1. This might be something we could pull together during Enfilade? A demo of Cold War armor in Europe? Thoughts?
  2. I am working on my battle box now to contain turf, tree and tanks. I like small for this era...changes things up a bit
  3. Prices are also good. Off sale, company box sets are $40 and five tank blisters are $10. Pretty good deal as you can expect Team Yankee is going to expand quickly into French, British and Warsaw Pact creating a huge money pit to invest into.
  4. Game Matrix (Tacoma) has box sets for WWII, alternate WWII (Germany 1947), Cold War and Moden War. They also carry a wide range of blisters and supportive materials. The only thing I am going to have trouble with is trees. I might have to hit up a railroad hobby store for something that is durable and looks good.
  5. Everything was sold out in Tacoma so I could not get my paws on any of it. Is the rule book just for game play or does it have the company breakouts?
  6. So I elected to get micro armor instead of the Battlefront Team Yankee. For the price of just the Soviet box ai scooped up a T-72 company, A BMP company and an M1 Company with eight buildings. Pro: 1. Cost. You cannot beat $40 for a company box set, I should have opposing battalions up for about the same cost as the BF starters 2. Terrain. It is cheap and easy to produce 3. Time. I painted a triple color Soviet Company in two hours after the primer dried to include flocking 4. Scale. A 4 x 6 table could really fill up fast with Battalions and bring Cons: 1. MBT guns are as fragile as German 2cm models...they bend if breath too hard 2. I hope you have a stock of extra 15mm BF bases, they are excellent for this scale: a. Small bases for units b. Medium bases for building city blocks c. Large bases for farms and town squares d. Kits come with no bases and they really help protect the models 3. I think I am the only guy with MicroArmor....sigh, I will roll dice solo for a while 4. The rules in the box read odd, I think, you could use the BF rules What are your thoughts Generals?
  7. 1420 LW lists Free play to test lists for the 30 Jan tournament See you there with my American replacements
  8. Staff at The Game Matrix informed me that the whip store is on sale on 31 Dec at a 20% flat rate. Happy hunting for the deals you want.
  9. Date dependent, I would make it down from Tacoma and could bring stuff to dress a table
  10. I have heard nothing yet, but it will be likely that I will be at the store this week and can get some details if not posted earlier.
  11. I will post a proposed date shortly. Been on the road.
  12. Hope to see some of you on deck tomorrow
  13. I have Finns and Germans to contribute. If the date is booked early enough, there is a good chance some Tacoma folk will come down.
  14. I have not heard anything on Bastogne outside of the thread. My list I am bringing out of Devils Charge will work though.
  15. Had four people people game last Sunday, I think we are all pretty much in for the tournament.
  16. LW 1420 points. Tournament prep, free play is the theme.
  17. Great game with 1200 point per four players. German Fallschrimjager held the American and British armored leviathan to a draw. The next mission stands to be better.. Thanks for all who came out.
  18. I have 6lbs guns, I assume those are 5.5's? Universals...got you covered.
  19. Traffic is too tough for me to make Thursday nights. Weekends work best for play st OCC. I will be there this Sunday with a crew for some free game play
  20. I have some limited Brits I can bring. Churchills, Sherman's and artillery. 2lb portee trucks and three LRC trucks.
  21. 1. Just clarifying that the 13th is Sunday...so the killing should be reserved for your pewter only 2. Anyone need model support, let me know. Between Ed and I, we can cover most anything needed 3. I am not on warsound, can you assist?
