Today we played Soldiers of Napoleon, 4 brigades a side with Britsh versus French. I really like these rules, they keep you thinking and making constant decisions.

Game 5 table 4 on the 29 Lets Go PSC. Time to secure the right flank before moving onto the final objective. The US troops got most of the Germans to deploy and then hit them with 5 phases of a bombardment, this along with dome devastating US firepower won the table for them.

Suitably inspired after playing a few games of Soldiers of Napoleon, Ive added a unit to my 28mm Napoleonic big battles collection. Brunswick Avant Garde join the rest of my Brunswick troops, I now need to paint a Brigade Commander and some skirmishers.

Today it's campaign turn 4 on table 3, in the 29 Lets Go psc for Chain of Command. A flanking attack on St Germain du Pert, lots of open ground to cover for those poor yanks! 馃槼 #spreadthelard

Today, I have been mostly making teeny tiny Jump Off Points for my 15mm games. They're only 20mm across, so a bit more room for deployment if like me, you measure from the centre of the JOP 馃憤 #chainofcommand2 #spreadthelard

Todays game was the delaying action at Arthenay, table 2 from the 29 Lets Go pint sized campaign. The US simply ran out of force morale in the last game, so this is campaign turn 3 on table 2 and Colonel Goode is a worried man. 1/2

The Germans were 6 men down and only had 10 pts of support against a fresh US platoon and a whopping 26 pts of support. They tried their best with a MMG and a sniper but were eventually overwhelmed. Table 3 next. 2/2

Our game in progress at Clotted Lard Exeter this weekend just gone. Two hard fought sessions, with the allies (defending) just hedging it. Game very loosely based on Leros 1943. #spreadthelard

Some "dug in" Pzgrenadiers for my mediterranean collection. Spare figures left over from my Perry plastics. Then I decided I needed at least two sections, so i used a load of odds and sods from the plastic pile to do the same with Warlord plastics.

Has anybody played these ? Found plenty of videos from the company that produces them, but no reviews online yet.

Grandad duties tonight, so at the request of Grandson no 1 it's 15mm Chain of Command. US forces attempting to defend a determined attack by fanatical SS troops, who intend to capture a vital rail head somewhere in Normandy.

More photos of last nights game of Soldiers of Napoleon, a small action involving 2 brigades on each side, with @geofftbond commanding the Allies. I must have been distracted by reading the rules/running the game, because the Allies won the day 馃槴

Painted some Baccus Peninsular British to fight my French in some 6mm battles. Still not decided what rules to use yet, and these chaps are going to need some Cavalry and Artillery support before they hit the table.

This week has been mostly about learning to play Soldiers of Napoleon. 2 solo games and 1 against my grandson and I have to say, I like them! Simple mechanics, but lots of nuance in how you use your cards. Will definitely play more in the future 馃槉

Second game of the 29 Lets Go campaign from TFL. My US platoon marched across the table under the watchful eye of a platoon of Sherman tanks, my opponent threw lots of 5's building up CoC dice and ending 2 turns. I was FM11 so 11 phases in the final Countdown.

After about 3 phases he rolls triple 6 and it's game over. I lost the game without a single casualty 馃槀 Colonel Goode must have lost his bottle and called the attack off. #spreadthelard
