Sorry, actual name is TANKS Modern Age haha
Anyone up for super light rules Cold War tank battle? I have a British and USSR force, 15mm. This Sunday? sorry just found out I have a family obligation this Sunday, so next one 19th?
Games are simple and quick but you can upgrade crew and equipment so was thinking of a few games where we add points at the end and develop the forces.

Here are the photos from the TANKS Modern Age game Brian and I played last Sunday. Nice game, the initiative mechanic on moving and firing works really well, we found the cover rules for woods a bit odd and I completely missed the rule about re rolling dice to hit if you remain stationary. Really like the ability to make your units and squad unique each game with the cards. Key learning for me was the British force I had was more suited to taking down helicopters than going toe to toe with T-64s, I've got another Chieftain on order to balance it out now. Looking forward to adding in Lynx and Hind for next game, and now itching to paint up French force whose tanks can upgrade shots to critical and can fire over other tanks.

Seemed odd having such close combat with the tanks over an objective given that there is no range on the shots they can make. Attachments:
