The idea was to trap the retreating Germans.
Anyone interested in Saturday 24th AUGUST
PBI games.
Themed on 1944 German, British,Polish, Canadian, American.
I was thinking 3 tables?
martin :)
Probably not. Bank holiday Saturday driving towards the coast sounds like sitting in a traffic jam.
John
I like the sound of that.

I can do at one full table, plenty of Sherman and Cromwell tanks and a Commonwealth force. Canadians or Polish ?
The Canadians had a hard fight on their hands trying to contain the Germans !
I can supply a few German vehicles too if you wanted to reenact clogged up roads with abandoned vehicles ?
Miles
That is good Miles.
I would like 2 more players so we can swap around in the afternoon.
ie we need 4 players and we are green for go.
martin :)
Colin has said he would like to be there, but.
I will be there if it's a go.
Miles
Thanks Miles
I will give it one more day.
martin :)
I'm away on holiday sorry.
Sorry - got some family commitments on that day.
Simon
Sorry Martin
At the moment I am working
Stewart
Sorry Miles.
No takers apart from you and I.
I think we need 4 players minimum so there is some "swap over".
I will organise another PBI day later and see if there is any interest.
martin :)
Maybe I can organise Me and Colin to come down to you on that Saturday? I know Colin is keen to learn the new rules ?
Miles
That sounds good Miles
Saturday 24th?
Shall we find a 4th player?
martin :)
Let me speak to Colin first ? Yesterday was a bit hectic at home, Grandad duties etc.
Miles
Spoken to Colin and explained the situation, he had originally said he was coming to Entoyment. So after a quick chat we will see you on Saturday morning. Colin is very keen to know how the new rules play now ?
I shall be picking Colin up on the way, I think he will put in an order so he can pick it up as well ?
What do you want me to bring ?
Miles
That is good. How about desert armies?
I can lend Colin Italians or 8th army if he wishes?
martin :)
I don't mind, I ve got 8th Army.
