Hexsides and Hand Grenades. Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Gulf Strike - Scenario 5 Redux. If you've read much of my blog before, you'll know that I'm a huge fan of Victory Games' Gulf Strike. After it sat on my shelf for the better part of a year, I picked it up and got it on the table. It's a real gem of a game and I unfortunately got distracted by something else before I could seriously delve into it. One of my first write-ups on Gulf Strike. So what to do here? I haven't played much of this scenario before...

Spetsnaz raids captured a small island near Greece that had an empty airbase. They stationed a MiG-31 here to intercept en...

Hexsides and Hand Grenades. Sunday, August 9, 2015. Aegean Strike - Closing the Curtains. The first order of business was to push back the Greek gains in southern Bulgaria, which the Soviet mechanized infantry did without any problem whatsoever. By the 4th turn, Drama was captured by a single Soviet armored brigade and Thessaloniki looked to be ready to fall to two Soviet mechanized infantry divisions barreling through the southwest of Bulgaria and into Greece. 4 2nd Bulgarian Mechanized Inf.

Hexsides and Hand Grenades. Tuesday, May 26, 2015. Gulf Strike - Scenario 5 Thoughts. Over the past weekend, I went ahead and replayed Scenario 5 ("The Horn of Africa") from Gulf Strike again and I think I'm starting to understand it a little better. Here are some random thoughts that occurred to me while playing it over:. 1) The Soviets and USA going to war over Somalia. Really? 2) The Soviet CG tailing the US carrier group:. 6) Soviet priorities should be: 1.) Keep US surface fleet bottled up near ...

Hexsides and Hand Grenades. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Aegean Strike: Scenario 2 - Part 1. After playing around with scenario 1 in Aegean Strike, I decided to take the training wheels off and give a scenario that uses the whole map a spin. I don't have time these days to write a really detailed AAR but I'll update occasionally as I play. I can't stress enough that this is the first time I've played this game and I really don't know what I'm doing in terms of strategy. Setup of Turkey and Greece. Looks int...
