ARCTIC STRIKE - Part One



The theme of the Cold War Commanders for 2018 will be Norway 1985 - Arctic Strike. I am pleased to announce that after the success of this years event we will be returning to the Grimsby Wargames Society for the 2018 event. As well as this weekend Mark F and the Berkeley Vale chaps are also planning a weekend earlier in 2018 at the Tudor Arms in Slimbridge. Details of this should be available shortly and I think the plan is again to link that weekend to the Grimsby weekend with the theme being Norway 1985.

House rules worked well, still a few little things that needed sorting, and a new updated set will be sent out in the next couple of weeks. Idea being players have plenty of time to familiarise themselves with the extra rules. Some players submitted ideas for rules that we felt were over complicating the system, I think we all understand the level of abstraction within CWC can cause a few issues, but they work as a set of rules. Some rules that have been suggested and would work, like the small vehicle rules, have not been included in the House Rules, but we plan to incorporate them into amended Army Lists as a note against the vehicle.

The plan at this early stage is to have 4 tables, one big one downstairs and three upstairs. This would give us an 18' x 6' table downstairs and upstairs we would have a 16' x 6' table, a 9' x 5' table and a 10' x 5' table.
