...or should that be five columns? For the first few turns both sides focussed on getting troops forward. I'll let the photos do most of the talking.
A Nationalist column advances - led by the mighty tankettes!

Looks like a great game - hoping I can get back to garden games sometime soon - in fact any gaming!
Including the Guardia Civil we did actually manage to have four Nationalist columns outside the city. Who would have thought Colonel Orlov would be our fifth?......
Everything looks wonderful, I especially love the tankettes! That's how a patio in spring should look, full of toy soldiers and vehicles! Well done!
Echoing everyone else - it looks fantastic. I also appreciate how you had the forethought to have a home with a patio that could serve as either fields in an air wargame or be used for area based movement.
THat looks fantastic Tim.
Cheers,
Pete.
Hmm, a show trial for the Comrade?

The lesson I have taken from last year is 'get on with it!' Fancy a trip north?

Ah, but will Orlov redeem himself? Stay tuned....

We had the patio laid three years ago - this was it's debut game!

You'll be here for the next one then?

As if political skullduggery would form any part of this game....
