The Conclusion to Warren and Rob's Marathon Game

50 Comments

Gerry has been running from table to table all day helping people get to grips with Flames of War but he also checks in with Warren and Rob’s game.

Interestingly for Warren, he’s found that the tanks have followed the terrain built by the OTT crew, keeping to the roads and dirt tracks whilst the infantry have happily hopped over hedgerows and delivered surprise attacks to armoured divisions.
