Away for a week on the Lincolnshire coast. Popped out this morning to have a look at the Tank on the Beach.
Believed to be a Comet. No one seems to know how it got here. It is very close to Donna Nook Air Weapons Range. Perhaps a connection?

The next one will be better. 😁

And my 2nd game of CoC² last night. Yes, it's that good.
This time a Soviet plt defending against a German plt in the Attack on an Objective mission. Held off the German attack on the objective but my forces were starting to take heavy casualties.
Another great game.

With the launch of pre-orders for Chain of Command 2 I thought it's appropriate to skeet this photo.
My first game of Chain of Command, 24th March 2014. I've had a bundle of grand games, even when getting the snot knocked out of my side. Money well spent.
