First battle of new Hexon table

Hi, we created a simple scenario, with a German mixed force counter-attacking against recently lost ground, occupied by a British defence. The Germans employed two tank companies [one of Panthers, one of Panzer IVs, an aufklarungs company, a reduced assault pioneer battalion, and two grenadier batta...

Re: New setup

Hi, the map was hand drawn in the early eighties and represents out campaign. It has been mounted in four different houses/garages until it made its final resting place in the bunker. the battle we are playing has nothing to do with that campaign, as we need to convert across to hexes from 200mm squ...

Re: New setup

The latest pics from our first game on the new setup.

What's next?

The range of products will undoubtedly expand, so would one of our kallistra admins care to let us know what we can expect in the future? Thanks.

Re: New setup

My oppo picked up ten boxes of flocked, and three boxes of unflocked, from colours at Newbury. Hot from there, the hexon arrived today.
