AAR - WCW10 Stand And Die I played this oldie but goldie by Scott Holst today. ROAR has it 50 Japanese / 43 Chinese as of 28.05.2023, so it has seen pretty much play with a quite balanced outcome overall. The action is set in December 1937and pits a Japanese force of 11 squads + 2 crews led by...

A25 Cold Crocodiles - AAR Scenario Overview: Well, 'Cold Crocs' is one of the classics of the classics I suppose. As of May 2021, ROAR has it at 188 British wins vs. 162 German ones, so it has seen a lot of play. The Excitement Rating is an incredible 7.61, which ranks it at no less than 4th...

AP163 Dingoes At Damour - AAR Scenario Overview: From the latest Action Pack #16, being tournament-sized and somewhat unusual in pitting Vichy French vs. Australian with tankettes and Carriers in Syria 1941, probably this scenario will see numerous playings. At least it has recently. My...

Leatherneck 2 #1 Airfield Fracas - AAR Almost 4 a.m. when I finished this scecario totally exhausted as the Marines. Our playing was rife with absurdities leading to utter frustration as well as amazement and disbelief. Our playing went until the last APh of Japanese Turn 7. Now after a...

ASL192 / G29 Shoot-N-Scoot - AAR Scenario Overview: I picked this scenario as I felt like playing something bigger than the usual tournament fare. With 8.5 Turns and roughly 15 squad equivalents and a dozen AFV per side, this one seemed to fit the bill. The defending Americans also have a...
