Did someone's mum tread on the vehicle to the left of the Jeep?

Spot on Henry !
Strange as it may seem, this idea gets my vote as well.

NO. I've just sold all my 6mm Imagi stuff to Paul! I'm not doing it again!

I'm sure he'd sell them back to you for a small "transaction fee".

Big, you say?

You don't know big until you've seen Cacadores render an entire division impotent and immobile by trying to fit everything through a single road through a small village. At once.


Apart from being hilarious, this illustrates one significant point about 'big' games: stuff like that actually happened.... and smaller games just don't reflect those situations.

Having said that - while it was enlightening to see, I could happily do without ever having that educational, historically accurate, bloody ridiculous and game-slowing situation ever again.
