Brrrt brrrt! A nice support option for my Sicily/Italian DAK platoon, in the shape of an MG34 MMG with 5 crew.
Now with CoC2 it comes with it's own hard cover, so i knocked up a quick sandbag entrenchment for it to hide behind.

The Japanese Landings at Mauban, December 1941. A strong attack by the Japanese saw the Philippino soldiers outflanked and swiftly defeated as the fighting continues beyond the beaches. Another cracking game of Chain of Command 2. #spreadthelard #chainofcommand2

Rebasing some 20mm miniatures for use in Chain of Command. Experimenting with multi-based 20mm for the European theater. I have a bunch of 28mm miniatures for Burma but don’t have a table large enough to play that scale properly.

The second stage was the German counterattack, with Panthers and armoured infantry, which managed to reclaim both objectives.
Great fun, lots of laughs and banter, which for me is what it's all about 👍

Truck and miniatures are crisply moulded, with neither mould lines nor printing support to remove. Undoubtedly it will be knocked out before my chaps can even think about assault deployment....but such is the way with a new unit or vehicle! #SpreadTheLard #TooFatLardies #ChainOfCommand2

Somewhere in Eastern Europe winter of 44/45, and the heroes of the Red Army push ever further west in their mission to destroy Nazi Germany.
More to the point, my grandson gets to use his brand new Russian platoon in a game of CoC2.
