Manchuria 1945

I'm planning on another game of TacWWII this weekend with a solo play-though of Bob Mackenzie's Approach to Mutanchiang scenario. Here's the setup.


Conversion from Bob's Command Decision scenario to TacWWII reduces the table size from 8'x4' to 4'x2'; small enough to fit on the plan chest in my workshop.

The village of Ssutaoling is the only built-up area on the map. I decided to represent it with a little homemade village module:


It's one of three I made from modelling clay when one of Mark Bevis's articles in the SOTCW Journal required some Korean villages. That must be about thirty years ago!

    1. I actually have both volumes after a business trip to London years ago allowed for a visit to Foyle's. I can't remember if I was feeling particularly financially stable at the time or if I just needed the retail therapy!
