Scenarios for IABSM, Chain of Command and Troops, Weapons and Tactics

The first item is a scenario book for IABSM, Chain of Command and Troops, Weapons and Tactics.

In the Name of Roma! Actions of the 80° Roma Infantry Regiment on the Eastern Front: August to December 1941.

IN THE NAME OF ROMA is a wargame supplement that contains 30 company and platoon level scenarios covering the actions of the 80ª Roma Regiment from August to December of 1941. You’ll follow the 80th from the open steppe to the Donetz industrial basin, including the amphibious attacks across the Dnieper, and the fateful decision of Column Chiarimonti to attempt to seize Nikitovka.

IN THE NAME OF ROMA includes:
• 30 scenarios divided in six distinct campaigns
• Historical background information and period area maps
• Italian and Soviet briefing for each scenario
• Formation information and stats for Early War Italians and Soviets
• Forward by Richard Clarke

Though primarily written for the Too Fat Lardies rules systems (I Ain’t Been Shot Mum; Troops, Weapons, and Tactics; and the newly released Chain of Command), the scenarios in IN THE NAME OF ROMA work equally well with Arc of Fire, Bolt Action, Flames of War or your favorite rules system.

This is now available as a direct download from here.

Action At Ustilug

This is a pint sized campaign for Chain of Command covering the opening day of Operation Barbarossa. It is a half ladder campaign.

The campaign covers the opening day of Operation Barbarossa. The German 289th Infantry Division crossed the Ukrainian border at the bridges near Ustilug and encountered the Soviet 87th Rifle Division and elements of the 41st Tank Division. The scenarios cover rural as well as urban engagements. The Soviet defenders acquitted themselves well and delayed the German advance through the town at every opportunity.

The booklet weighs in at 22 pages with full maps for each scenario. This does not have the same production quality as the Pint Sized Campaigns published through TooFatLardies as it has no graphics other than game maps. As such, it is priced accordingly. Stop by and check it out today.

Campaign for Kharkov - October 1941

This contains two pint sized campaigns for Chain of Command. They follow the German advance of the 101st Light Division and the 57th Infantry Divisions. There are a total of 12 scenarios included.

There are twelve total scenarios in two campaigns. he interesting aspect of the October 1941 battle is in the nature of the troops involved. The Soviets had superiority in armor. The Germans advanced with only a single STUG battalion in support of the 57th ID. The Soviets fielded the T34 as well as several improvised armored vehicles such as the KhTZ-16. While not a success on the battlefield, it demonstrated the Soviet inventiveness under the extreme pressure of the blitzkrieg. Full force lists are availible for both German Divisions and the Soviet troops present. Maps are based on aerial reconnaissance photographs taken by German troops in September 1941.

It is availible on my PayHip Store, Wargames Vault and Amazon.

Second Kharkov Campaign: May 1942

This new book covers the May 1942 Soviet attack and the subsequent German counterattack. There are two Chain of Command pint sized campaigns. The first campaign has seven linked scenarios and the second has six. In addition, there is a campaign for What A Tanker as well.

The first campaign covers the retreat of Kampfgruppe Winkler around the town of Nepokrytaya. The entire campaign covers only one day as the Soviets pushed the German defenders hard. The German response was an armored counter attack beginning on the 13th of May. The second campaign follows Kampfgruppe Schmidt-Ott of the 3rd Panzer Division and his advance from Kharkov up to Nepokrytaya and on to Wesseloje on the 16th of May.

Kiss Me Hardy Supplements

To Covet Glory

This is a set of scenarios (15 of them) for the age of sail. They cover actions from the American Revolution through the Napoleonic Wars for ships under the rate. The supplement can be found on my PayHip store as well as on Wargames Vault.

KMH is designed for single ship or large fleet actions with ships that are of the rate (6th rate vessel or larger). Small ships of less than twenty guns tend to play the same from a one gun rowboat to a 18-gun Brig of War. These modifications provide some uniqueness for the smaller ships and allow them to be battled out on the tabletop.

With Fire and Sword is the second supplement for Sharp Practice covering the activities in South Carolina between June and August 1780, a critical time for the American Revolution in the south after the fall of Charleston.

The skirmishes and small battles that affected the north of the State were to decide whether the Revolution in the South continued, and were to gain a significance way beyond their actual size.

It has a total of twenty-four scenarios for Sharp Practice that will provide the gamer with a selection of scenarios, from a dozen or so men a side up to over 100 figures each covering militia, provincial and regular troops. Even Banastre Tarleton gets to make an appearance.
