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).

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.

Winter Finns!

It was my 30th birthday after Christmas this year, and much to my surprise, I was greeted by this box that morning. My girlfriend had heard me mumble something about maybe wanting a Winter War Finn army several months ago, and took it upon herself to get it for me. Result.
