Orders? What Orders?

Just so I didn't get too complacent the dice gods gave me another kicking in our last game of 2025 today to make sure.

A fairly static game the slow pace of the German advance gave the British time to form a strong defensive position which became increasingly difficult for the Germans to overcome. Although the German morale was holding it was obvious that any assault would result in unacceptable losses, a tactical withdrawal was ordered giving the British a tactical victory.
That is all from OHQ in 2025 see you in 2026 at some point
Happy New Year & KBO!

  2. A really challenge to coordinate a plan with Orders at a premium each Turn. As always though a joy to play against you with your exquisite collections.
