Sturm Uber Dunkirchen was the Reluctant Conscripts Early War competition for 2014. 34 players were in attendance (unfortunately we had several late drop outs, I think we were supposed to have 38 players). For this event, it was an opportunity to get my DAK force painted up, and I decided on the following list:
Confident Veteran | Schützenkompanie Rifle Company | German Early-War |
Infantry Company |
Platoon | Qty | Unit | Points | ||

Unfortunately, I had a terrible weekend results wise, losing 4 out of 5 and finishing last. I still have a long way to go with understanding Early War, and am already planning for next year's event, with either a return for the DAK, or possibly a Finnish company from Rising Sun.
