Ant Attack! – Home-brew Rules
A game based on the classic movie ‘Them’ from the 1950s. Three scenarios were played, and the ants won two of them, consuming many civilians as well as military personnel. The ants even managed to take out a Sherman – much was made of their ANTi-tank abilities!
28mm Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth v Sweden – Pike & Shotte
A last run out of the year for the boys from the Baltic in the third game of on ongoing fictional campaign set in the late 1620s in which Sweden has invaded the Commonwealth territory of Prussia. The scenario saw the Poles attacking a Swedish camp, with the objective of taking a dominant hill with a dawn attack. The small Swedish force defending the hill were reinforced over the day.
The battle for the hill was hard fought with attack and counter attack seeing the hill change hands several times. The Swedish Yellow Regiment, who were initially defending the hill, fought bravely but were eventually overwhelmed by Polish cavalry charges. A third win for the Poles!
