Warfare - DZC tournament report + Other stuff

I took my Scourge along with three other members of the Orbital Bombardment Podcast crew, Mike, Joe and Ed took part. I recommend you catch Ed's video log of the two days available at their blog site.


Reading Warfare has been going for decades and is one of the longest running wargaming conventions in the UK but it is the first time I have been. It's current home is the Rivermead Leisure Complex in Reading. The Drop Zone Commander tournament, along with many others, was taking place in the main hall, along with a good sized trader's hall all the other available space at the venue was being used for tournaments (the Flames of War event was taking place in a squash court).
Game One -  Greg Joynson - PHR - Mission Targets of Opportunity - Draw 10 points each
A drawer, but I did have opportunities to do better. A Triton containing troops was left high and dry within the threat range of three Reapers. Unfortunately I went of to attack two Januses. This was a particular low point. And yes the said troops were the ones which held an objective in a building at the end of the game! Doh! A close game nonetheless. Many thanks to Greg.
