Wargamer's Weekend!

WOW! Three games in three days! First game was with The Dragon's Lair group. I ran a German KG trying to escape encirclement in Lithuania in 10/44. Marty was able to make it, so it was good to see him again. The Germans didn't make it this time, because of a bold Soviet tank charge that caught them in the flank in the opening stages of the game. Next time I will be more clear about entry locations.
The next game was with David Glenn's group. We had a Seminole Indian Skirmish game. My Seminoles ambushed the American column pretty well, but was unable to prevent the escape of the escorted artillery piece. Nice terrain from Dave, as usual.
Last night the Dave Sharp group played a Normandy 'what-if" game. How appropriate for June 6. The 21 Panzer struck against the Americans instead of the British this time. All those nice French tanks made good targets. The Americans stopped the counter-attack, no thanks to the air support or the naval gunfire!
All were fun games and illustrate the variety to be had in this hobby.
