Guessing we can add Colin to the mix

[Baldie]

Stick me down if you need someone.
Def won't have owt painted though.

[Jimmy]

If I'm about i'll pop in, dunno if I have anything suitable - there were Japanese at D-Day weren't there?

I suppose I could finish my americans :s

[madness]

I'll be there, can bring my Brits, or Gerbils.

[Tiger 1]

Tradition is important

Aiming for KISS, at this scale anything else will fall over

Just need Reece as axis commander

That kid is good.

Suggest something like 10k per side, split to be up to 5k of germans on the table, remainder in reserve and up to 5k of allied airborne, the remainder in reserve

Saturday:
D-Day, Hit the Beach mission, Allied airborne arriving from the flanks, German reserves from the back edge. Navel Gunfire has the entire table, however we will limit the range to 72" from the sea table edge so can't get the back of the table. Note initial bombardment means German armour should be to the rear.

Sunday:
Villers Boccage, Winner of D-Day defending the town, defeated faction attacking, everything starting on the table, excuse to bring the Tigers and Wittman out to play
