Bad Squiddo Games is exceedingly proud to present a brand new range as part of the 28mm Women of WW2 collection - Women of the Home Front. Dedicated to my late grandmother Jesse Norman, who served in the Women's Land Army.

We have six new packs to start, three Women's Land Army, two Women's Home Defence and a set of Field Medics.

This is a pre order that is available to collect at Crisis, Antwerp or delivery anywhere in the world at the start of November. There are a couple of pre order bundles as well to get you started on your home defence force.

Sculpted by the ever so talented and much adored Alan Marsh, with some beautiful paint jobs coming to you soon.

These fit with all popular WW2 ranges perfectly.
Available to pre order now.

"But when the war is over, and peace at last restored, I shall always remember the Land Girl, who made her hoe her sword",

Thanks for reading,

Over the last couple of months a number of products have been released to support platoon level action in the South Pacific using Combat Patrol.

The Combat Patrol Pacific Supplement is a free PDF down load and includes all of the additional rules and background that you need for WW2 skirmish level gaming in the Pacific.
The Japanese have a special action deck which implements the unique Japanese Morale rules including the feared Banzi charges.

Today we have added to these supplements unit and vehicle reference card sets for USMC and Japanese Imperial Army.

New Cards For Combat Patrol

Three new sets of unit reference cards for Combat Patrol. Each set of cards contains an organisation chart together with a unit reference card for each sub-unit with all of the ratings and weapon details already filled in so you can get your troops on the table and start playing.

The featured packs are German Fallschirmjaeger, Dutch Army and Dutch Marines.

Combat Patrol (TM) WW2 skirmish rules features the G.A.M.E.R.(TM) engine.  G.A.M.E.R.(TM) is a unique skirmish system in which cards are used not just for activation but for all aspects of combat resolution and melee.  No dice are used to resolve combat.  Over three years were spent in development.  The result is a system that flows smoothly and supports many-player gamers.

Combat Patrol is designed for playing platoon level WW2 actions, this is the same level of engagement as a Bolt Action game.

Units in the game are around five figures and represent a fire team or half squad of infantry, a heavy weapons team, a vehicle or an artillery piece.

Individual casualties are removed so it is best to use figures on single bases. Any scale of miniature can be used, 28mm, 20mm or 15mm so you can use the same wargames figures that you use for Bolt Action, Rapid Fire or even Flames of War!

Combat Patrol TM has been written by John 'Buck' Surdu, retired US Army Colonel and prolific and innovative games designer whose previous works include Gaslight, Look Sarge no charts, Fire Team Vietnam, Beer & Pretzels Skirmish and many, many more.

It’s new release time!   We’ve had some little extras to add the WW2 range in various stage of preparation for some time now, and here are the end results.    The British, Germans and US paratroopers all get some drop canisters

Each pack contains 4 canisters and attendant paratrooper plus 8 collapsed shrouds giving you a great way to mark out the drop zones in your games.

You can find more details HERE

For those of you who prefer something more colourful we’ve added two more flag sheets to the rapidly expanding range of Thirty Years War colours.   This time we have some for the Protestant Union.

 

And the army of Christian of Denmark.

As with all of our latest releases these are vector images which produce wonderfully sharp and detailed results.    These are great value at just £1.46 plus VAT for 24 individual colours - 28mm equivalents run from 70p for a single flag!   Work is well underway on Spanish and French sheets for the period.

You can find more details HERE

 

Shifting back to the 20thC we’ve nearly completed work on the ANZACs to match against our recently released  Great War Ottoman Turks.    Here’s a sneak peek at the infantry from the range.

If all goes to plan these will be available at the Derby Worlds  show on October 7th and 8th.
