NOW RECRUITING - Forgotten Battles Tournament - UPDATE DEC 25 - Crossroads - 10-26-2014 Dec 25, and we're into Winter War. New recruits welcome! Commanders, We are quite a distinguished crowd, but we could really use more cannon fodder in the tournament ![]() Current Forgotten Battles Crew: Ed Juan Manuel Battle Kat Ashcloud Boisforas dawags Otto von Blotto Ivan The Big Chris Merchant Tiger 88 Please Join In! ![]() You can follow the tournament at its own thread, HERE. RE: Forgotten Battles Tournament - Crossroads - 11-27-2014 BUMP! Everyone, we are nearing the end of the Soviet Invasion of Poland in September 1939. Anyone still wanting to get in for that phase please report in! Now! ![]() Hostilities will soon begin in the far North. Today Nov 26th 2014 marks the 75th anniversary of the staged shelling at Mainila, a border village bw. Finland and USSR. Killing and wounding several Red Army soldiers, the deed of these White-army bourgeois war mongers will not go unpunished! The stage is becoming set for the beginning of Winter War.... RE: Forgotten Battles Tournament - Crossroads - 12-02-2014 Invasion of Poland 1939 is playing its third and final round (with an incomplete Round 2 but we will revisit it though). Onward it is! Here's the current situation, from the tournament thread: Quote:Standings as we speak: Repel the Bolshevik! Allied major wins all through. How would you modify the scenario to make it better balanced? Or does it need balancing, was this just some great leadership from the Polish player? Battle of Szack One major win per side. What is your feeling of that scenario? Only two rounds completed at the moment though, I admit. Wytyczno 1939 We have a full roster of five games set to start. Yay! How do you like the early war Poland so far? Worth even more new scenarios? Discuss! ![]() RE: Forgotten Battles Tournament - Bolo - 12-02-2014 A call for cannon fodder? That's my specialty! I can join starting in round 4. My other games should have ended by then so I will have time. To be honest I wanted to join in sooner but totally forgot and filled up my roster. I someone could send me a heads up (or a game) at danr308@gmail when it's time for round 4 I would appreciate it. Fair warning: I skimmed a few chapters of an exceedingly dense and hard to follow history of the Winter War about ten years ago!

I will send you an email once we are ready for Round 4. Plenty of time to finish your book ![]() Round 4 will be the first of the three Winter War rounds, a fun little engagement called Metal Gods. I just finished the third set of mirrored games of it vs Hawk Kriegsman. Most brutal, either side... ![]() Anyone else? ![]() RE: NOW RECRUITING - Forgotten Battles Tournament - UPDATE DEC 25 - Crossroads - 12-26-2014 It seems Side A is in with an early advantage (probably because I've managed to clock in only once - with a major loss ofcourse) , but it is early days still. Here's the standings, looking for new recruits as always!

Just missed it here - fixed now. ![]() |
