After seizing the initiative after their victory in the last game the Germans mount a local counterattack and so we return to St Nicholas Farm. The Germans will succeed in delaying the British for at least one campaign turn which makes their chance of an outright campaign victory less likely (but no...

Re: CoC Operation Martlet and The Scottish Corridor (updated 02 02 24)

The British are within two games of a major campaign victory but can they pull it off? They have a tough table to attack and the Germans are bound to have a say in the matter. This is game seven in the campaign and the full AAR is here https://thetacticalpainter.blogspot.com/2024/02/operation-martle...

The Germans launch the Punch from Wunsche, an armoured counterattack from 12th SS Panzer Regt in an attempt to drive the British from St Nicholas farm.

Re: Operation Martlet question

Don very kindly sent me a couple of other unofficial amendments that they had used in their campaign. These clarify or change the rules for the forward observer and mortar battery and also for the AVRE.
