Bristol Big'Uns / What a tanker game dates

**Posted by Magwr** 23/4/2018 5:56 PM

Hi,

Am free to run What a tanker games on Sunday 6th May &/or Sunday 20th May.

All you need is one British & one German 20mm late War tank plus a printed out dash board, the pdf file for which is on the two fat lardies web page.

So anyone interested let me know the dates & what tanks you have and I’ll work out a scenario.

Oh yes 4 counters as well to show buttoned up, aquired, aimed & loaded on the dashboard.

Definitely interested but will be in Greece on the 6th and coming home early hours of the 20th so may have to pop along another day.

I will be up for another game on 6th.

Cool.

I’ve got a better tanker tool for arcs of fire & incoming rounds.

One thing I lack in 15/20mm scale is terrain, so if you got some hedges, walls buildings please bring them along.

See you 6th

Dreads,

Cool, Simon has spare 20mm tanks & his son James is coming so that’s 4 of us.

As mentioned Nigel, if I end up having some free time on 6th I will join in. Doubtful but there is a little hope!

With the interest in this game was wondering if it might be worth running a monthly campaign like we’ve been doing for XWing.
Is there a campaign set up for this that would work?

Steve,
yes there is a campaign system for WaT which is rather good and i think having a WaT monthly campaign is a cracking idea.

Nige, 3D printer is currently hard at work generating a little piece of Normandy 1944. Struggling with the bocage but printed a 20mm garage, bits of a farm and next “Dead Mans Corner”. Regret unlikely to have time to paint them but hopefully can at least give them a dusting from a rattlecan so they aren’t bright red :-)

Hi Kevin,

Sounds excellent, will make the game even better with good terrain to use.

Interested - and as mentioned elsewhere can get the rules with a discount for club members

What scale are we going for?

I saw somewhere else 15mm?

I do have a fair few tanks in 1/48th scale!!

**Posted by AndyT** 11/5/2018 9:45 AM

Talking of scale i see someone on the WaT facebook is playing in 1/35th scale.

Tamiya and Revell 1/35 seem to sell for a similar price to Warlord 1/56 resin vehicles but table size might be an issue !

**Posted by robb** 11/5/2018 5:42 PM

Plenty of kits in 1/48th by Tamiya etc, and there are also lots of aircraft as that's the 'go to' scale for aircraft model makers

I may well give it a go in 1/48th, but need to get the rules first
