What's this blog all about?

"Board games? You play board games?" I hear you say... yes, but not unlike any board games you've probably ever heard of. Monopoly? Cluedo? Guess Who? Battleships? No, not by a long shot. One day someone introduced me to a great little game called "Carcassonne" - named after a French medieval town of rambling streets, walls and sections - where the aim is to score the most points using little random squares of road, walls and cities.
I was hooked and so began my, then our - the Bradshaw Tribe, adventure into Euro- and Ameritrash- gaming...

Disaster at Dieppe arrives!

I've been on tender-hooks for each for this! The whole idea of trying to represent the huge catastrophic disaster of the Canadian-British assault on the Dieppe front in 1942 was very appealing. The battlemap comes also with 6 SdKzFW German armoured cars and 6 Long Range Assault jeeps for use with the other side of the map, a battle based around Tubruk. These are represented by plastic vehicles like the other maps, plus some paper info cards which I hope in the future are republished as card. I haven't had the chance to play around with it thoroughly, so a fuller report later.
