Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 22 – A Veritable Bloodbath

The pressure was on, not only to maintain the streak, but perhaps to be playing for almost the top… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 22 – A Veritable Bloodbath”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 02 – Hedgerows & Hand Grenades
One of the great things about Combat Commander is that you’re almost never truly out of the running to win the scenario.

The ladder is a Combat Commander monthly tournament… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario LoM #12 – Red Sector A”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 93 – Foxtrot Uniform
After a really bad (and late!) February episode of Tales from the Combat Commander ladder, we’re getting to March’s almost as soon as I’m done playing it! This was a much more satisfying game, and that’s whether or not I won (I’m not giving… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 93 – Foxtrot Uniform”
