Terrain is CNC machined in EPS in sections 1.5 m by 3 m and is generated from laser scans and photogrammetry. The whole model is coated with bathroom membrane since the EPS is permeable. The weir shapes are created from Divinycell (pvc foam) since it is quite rigid and easy to shape and fine-tune.

And land warfare in Norway was just a series of non-battles with Swedish armies running around chasing ghosts until they ran out of supplies and several failed sieges 😁

Beautiful tables Per, makes me think, but if I were to do GNW it would have to be naval, with the exploits of legendary swashbuckling Norwegian naval commander Peter Wessel Tordenskiold.

Yet another abysmal order roll, at least the Germans also got three ones. And those Pz iv's are getting awfully close, not looking good for the Brits, time to bug out and put the tea on..

Brits managed to get on a couple of platoons to shore up the defence but had to deploy quite far back in the open and promptly gets raked by a mg platoon that crept up on the hill. 5 shock and a second fubar..

Germans continued pushing and deployed their reserve company on the wooded hill while also advancing on the left flank. Both sides took a fubar. The other end of the board is completely ignored by both sides, it's all about the village.

The German attack on the village has developed nicely and the Brits had to pull back from the hill to regroup or face being wiped out. To be continued.
