15mm Kursk Preview for Barrage 2018...

Hello everyone! I recently ran a test game using my newly painted 15mm late war German and Soviet minis. The minis are all from Battlefront (FoW) and plastic. I painted two platoons of Panzergrenadiers with halftracks and a company command team, and a Soviet rifle platoon with two 57mm Zis-2 AT Guns and a Maxim HMG team, plus company command team. The Germans are painted to represent the Grossdeutschland division.

The scenario I ran is a test for the game I will be running at Barrage in Havre De Grace Maryland September 28-29. The convention will be covered by the members of Army Group York, such as yours truly, who bring you Little Wars TV! If you're in the area, come on out!

The scenario is an assault towards the Psel river by the Grossdeutschland division during Operation Citadel. The game will feature the forward elements of a Panzergrenadier company supported by mortars and HMGs against a Soviet rifle platoon hastily dug in along two low sets of hills anchored by a farm and a village.

The test game went will and will only require a little tweaking to balance the game. I will be writing up a full report once the convention is over and leading up to that, I will posting about some of the ways you can run big multi player games of Disposable Heroes II. For now, here are some teaser shots of the test game. Buildings are the excellent kits by Things from the Basement. Lovely little kits from their Eastern Front 15mm range. I hope to post a more full review of them as well.

Enjoy!
