Battlefront

Part of what we do here at NDNG is to bring excitement into our hobby and reach out to the community to get them to enjoy all the great games we play. Part of this is holding demo games whenever possible and I recently had the opportunity to hold a demo of the new Great War book at in Ashburn Va.

Holding a demo at this store seems fitting, my first taste of was playing FOW-1918 at a convention hosted by the owner of Huzzah Chris Huhn almost ten years ago. I asked Chris, who is a huge Great War fan if I can hold a demo at his store and he quickly found me some space at his store.

The British forces in Version 4’s Great War return with new options. Cavalry and Armored Cars bolster the already solid British infantry formations. The British now have four formations they can take; Line Division Rifle Company, Elite Division Rifle Company, Canadian or ANZAC Rifle Company, and the Cavalry Squadron.

When I first started playing Flames of War (FOW) many years ago I fell in love with the Late War period. It was my favorite because it was the culmination of the advance of technology of the nations involved in the conflict. By 1944 the major armies of 1939-1942 either improved their weapons, tactics, and doctrine drastically from the start of the war or ceased to exist as a credible force.

They say war is hell, and sometimes gaming can be tough too. We all know the feeling of exhaustion after a full day of playing in a tournament; what would you feel like after two days of competitive play? Those willing to play in back to back events and test their skills in both Team Yankee and Flames of War deserve recognition, and that is the title of “Iron Man”.

Our Wednesday post a day early!

Iron-Tom, Tom “Chairborne”, Dennis and Glenn get together to share thoughts about what we are up to at NDNG.

In addition, they discuss the NDNG Tunisia Campaign, BattleFront’s Open Day UK info, and the upcoming events at Historicon 2018.

While the membership NATO has grown since 1985 (15 members to 29 today) the mission and role of the alliance is just as relevant today as it was when first formed in 1949. So far has given us the forces of the major nations of the alliance and now it is time for the smaller nations to enter in the game. While these nation’s may have smaller and less well-equipped armies than the major players, their commitment to NATO should not be overlooked. They do play a major role supporting NATO’s mission.

Iron Tom Burgess, Chairborne Tom Mullane, and (no nickname) Troy take a look back at the past year since BattleFront premiered Version 4 rules.

What did they like, and not so much? What works? What do they want to see tweaked?

Listen now for commentary on Version 4, a year later.
