@Alex - yes, DH is from Iron Ivan; great set of rules for 40-a-side skirmish. Grinds a bit on the bigger games due to the granularity. The accompanying Armour rules Coffin for Seven Brothers is excellent for 28mm. Most players I've seen have nabbed the 'Blinds' system from TFL's TW&T/IABSM as that helps to keep the carnage down.

Great looking set there Dave - most impressive.

Absolutely Stunning!!!!!

Would you mind giving us a run down of what is needed and how you guys approach playing WW2 Skirmish in 28mm?

I have been keen for a very long time to move to 28 mm. I also play Flames of War which I enjoy but there is something special about many of the very nice 28 mm figures out there.

Which companies figures and vehicles are you using?

I plan to add to my Christmas Wish list.

Happy Gaming & Thank you in advance ;)

It is going to be an impresssssive game. The models and the terrain are wonderful.
After a long time gaming with "Disposable Heroes", we left it in favour of "Rules of Engagement" but both of them are great rulebooks.

Cheers.

Cracking stuff David. Iron Ivan's new rules (Point Blank) for squad level look good.

Thanks Guys,
Allan: It's a total mixture of manufacturers but most are, Crusader, Artizan and Bolt Action.
