King Tigers vs Canadian Infantry in Dust Up

Lines of sight confirmed

The other weekend I was able to go to Council Fires in Brantford. It was a mostly historical gaming convention with some fantasy games mixed in . As part of the convention there was a 1420 point LW Flames of War tournament. My first game was against Craig and his wonderfully painted Canadians.

I finally got to test out my anti-Patton list out of Devil's charge. Ryan brought a well rounded Grenadier list. We rolled up the mission at random and ended up with a Hasty Attack where I would use the always attack rule.
