Tale of 5 Gamers: US 3rd Army vs German Grenadiers

Tale of 5 Gamers: US 3rd Army vs German Grenadiers 500 points

US Third Army

Month 2 and part of the February challenge is to fight the new 500 point army against another 500 point army.  So, my second army for the 2019 Tale of Five Gamers 'The Relief of Bastoge', Patton's US 3rd Army is set to take on a German Grenadier army.

I have completed the US 500 point winter  army to get the 3 points for January's challenge - now lets see how my force fairs on the battle field.

Points available for this battle is 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw and 0 for a loss... 

Well, the United States 3rd army easily took apart the Germans in 4 rounds, this has earned me the 3 points needed for the win!

 To take my army to 700 points I am adding a sherman tank and Medium mortar.

The tank is built, undercoated and I have started to add details. I still have weathering to add and maybe some snow too!

Tale of 5 Gamers: Irish Guards

Helena's Irish Guards

Next up is Helena's Irish Guard army.  Unfortunately as she has been busy with work and other things, this project has had to take a back seat... needless to say, she has the opportunity this month to pull back to 750 points. 

However, by not building, painting or basing a 500 point army Helena scores 0 points for month 1.

Still lots to play for and many more points available... Good luck for February, with both the battle and building the next stage of the army... 750 points.
