Things aren't going so well at the moment, I haven't finished my Italians and can't find half my Inquisitor record sheets...
Yep, that would be an
How are we off for Inquisitor scale terrain? I could pop around to my parents before leaving and pick up some of the terrain I've got stored in their attic if we need it (I'll probably be going round anyway to print off some battletech paperwork as my printer is dead).I need to print my INQ sheetsnearly painted my path to glory though.
We are good. I have 3d printed a board this summer.

*Cue AC/DC and a ludicrous amount of machine gun fire*
Hope Clockwork provided some be kind of bare-chested pugilist to scrap with the invaders around a plane as it slowly turns in a circle.
I knew this game was going to go wrong as soon as the mission was having to wipe out the other force - with an SAS army of soft skins with effectively no anti-tank capability, against regular Germans with things like armoured cars, flamethrowers and panzers. It was always going to be a loss, but try to have fun anyway.
First the whole SAS raiding party made it onto the table before the Germans could... Of course this meant I held the table and immediately won the game with full battle honours
...or not, sadly. Ze Germans arrived and insisted on having a fight.
The stolen kubelwagon immediately took an AT rifle shot, which didn't damage it but did stop it from moving for a couple of turns (failed order tests... From a single pin
)
The rest of the SAS vehicles charged forwards to try and machine gun as many Germans as possible before the tanks hit them.
The first truck was taken out by a machine gun team.
After wiping out one German squad, a flamethrower blast obliterated the a dakka jeep.
The second truck and jeep were swiftly taken out by a Panzer III and infantry squad.
And finally the kubelwagon, Having restarted it's engine, was taken out by a single mortar shot... *Poont*... *BOOOM*
The end! Pretty much flawless German victory for @ClockworkOrange in the inaugural game of TribeMeet 2024!

Muhahhahhahha just before the stolen Kubelwagon want Kaboom…..the Panzer III picks it’s way through burning SAS jeeps. Meanwhile multiple German infantry squads mop up the SAS who dares loses final charge.
Again it’s unknown why ze Germans weren’t manning the perfectly good line of bunkers at the edge of the runway, but the pesky spy SAS caused little long term damage….ze German Mortar team on the other hand will be out in the morning on punishment detail filling their craters with a spoon.

The brave forces of Il Stoofle versus the 8th Army.
Il Stoofle himself graced the table first, occupying a shaded, pleasant wood, tactically placing a large group of soldiers between him and any possible incoming fire.
The Dakkawagon cruised forwards looking for soft targets, unfortunately meeting a hard target armed with an AT gun. Results as expected.
The British flamethrower team bravely dashed from their bren carrier, unfortunately missing their shot and being thoroughly machine gunned by the Italian tank.
The Italian mortar squad FUBAR'd their orders, and tried to shell their own squad. Luckily they were as accurate at that as usual.
The Italian AT gun managed to knock out a bren carrier in an uncharacteristically accurate shot, the Crusader skulking behind a lorry out of shot.
Towards the final turn, the Italians, having done well and controlled most of the game, decided they'd gone too long without some wine and a nap and just stopped following orders, allowing the Brits to rush forward and contest objectives.
The game ended with three units knocked out on each side, and each controlling two objectives - a clean draw.
Honourable mention to my colonial troops, who occupied a stable block and held a British squad off for the whole game, and also my M31 tank, which made it to the end of a game, despite being hit three times - an achievement itself for an armoured vehicle forged from toffee and hope.

Its currently a subdued crowd in the ‘CUBE for tonight’s event, but a few gangers have been captured and sold to the guilders, hopefully their sacrifice will excite the masses and fill the stands!
Predictably the Escher heavy massacred the three other Juves fighting for freedom, a mild ripple of applause and sated blood lust might keep the masses happy for a while….
