Hi folks,

Some of our esteemed members have asked me for an explanation of Operation Squad and I\'ve finally got around to doing so on my blog:

I hope you enjoy it. :)

Here\'s a quick pic of the board.

Mike already started a thread earlier here on the game:

Interesting. I like your approach to the use of markers (omnipresent in every wwII-game). In flanders field...use some red flowers.

Very true WWII games all seem to require markers and oh I\'ll try and remember the red flowers next time.

Thanks for the information, Axebreaker.
I ordered the rules, last time you mentioned them. They seem pretty cool, but I have yet to try them.
I\'m slowly painting myself through a squad of US Marines and some Japanese right now.
Btw, I love your terrain and your markers  :thumbup:

Thank you. :) Don\'t forget to post your figures when your done and give a quick brief on your thoughts on the game.

That\'s a pretty cool board you\'ve set up there :thumbup:
Also a interesting insight into the rules. That reminds me of my All American Airborne Unit and those Red Devils I had painted several years ago. Some day I should paint my Germans.

Thanks Tellus and remember with this system it\'s not a huge undertaking and 10 or 12 figures will be more then enough to get going. ;)

I still have the Foundry Germans which I like a lot and having seen Band of Brothers again on TV and some documentaries lately...I might be tempted :biggrin_1:
