This weekend the local HMGS-South group played a Bolt Action game. This was the largest Bolt Action game the group has played, with about 60 units. US Marines landed on a beach defended by the Imperial Japanese Army.
With two of three objective bunkers destroyed and the third under effective artillery fire, the game was ended after seven turns.
This weekend the local HMGS-South group played a WWI naval game using a modified version of a scenario tested previously.
This fleet action is based on the Triple Alliance naval convention of 1913, as described in “The Great War at Sea” by Sondhaus. The plan was for the Italian and Austro-Hungarian fleets and any German ships in the Mediterranean to engage the French Fleet and block the Algerian troop transports. This scenario assumes that the war starts in February 1914, and that the British Mediterranean squadron joins the French.
The confrontation occurs north of the Bay of Algiers.
Visibility 18,000 yards. Wind NNW at 3 knots. Seastate 1

The French had more undamaged ships when we quit, so the troop transports should be safe.
