THE GAME I played a 15mm Game with Tony Francis of Brigade Models in my cabin this week. Having some issues with updating my Slammers page at the moment so - until I address that - here's some shots and a description. Called The Attack on Lupine City, Tony had two detachments of Wolverines deployed and hidden (somewhat) in the town and he had a detachment of Harris Commandos who had been out recce-ing and were due back at any time. THE FORCES So Tony installed Wolverines in town (Captain and an LT). He hid their two AT guns and their Command Unit (these were placed off table and marked on a map for location). I fielded nearly four detachments of Hiroseki Army forces under their fierce Major Okuninushi. They had three detachments as per the list (Heavy Mechanised, Planetary defence and Mechanised Infantry) plus an incomplete ‘Odds- and-Sods’ unit with a lot of infantry and not enough transport (more of which anon). I rolled for where my Hiroseki detachments came on (answer: 3 at one end of the table with the Planetary Defence at the other end), had the initiative (and did so throughout the game) and each turn bowled to see if I could locate the AT guns or their command unit. My objective was to destroy the command unit by turn 6.
