A.K.A. Sherman Fireflies are Awesome
Had a great time at Warfare in Farnborough today and I did spend a bit more than I was planning! Plus managed to play a couple of games.
This will mean I can put together a new Wartnose jousting team of witches, go on a couple of paleo hunts and start my rise as the biggest gang in Rome. I wasn't planning on getting the Gangs of Rome but as soon as picked up the box and felt the weight. I just had to have a copy.
We first managed to get in on a game of 'What a Tanker' where I crewed a heroic Sherman Firefly and Jason took on a dastardly Panther. The Firefly took out two Panzer IVs and nearly took out Jason's Panther but got stuck in the open and eventually my luck ran out. And then of the course the Panther's 75mm gun found a weak spot. A really great participation game and run by a friendly team. It also hardly needs saying but what awesome terrain.
Also took part in an epic historic battle between the Greeks and the Romans. The Greek Phalanx looked unstoppable but in true Roman form they still managed to duff us up. And a Roman victory was inevitable.
Plus a couple of pictures of a very nice looking large scale LotR game.
