SCW rules playtest

With the club finally reopening after 15 months, I finally got a chance to platest my rules for the Spanish Civil War. I deliberately kept the game simple with 2 platoons aside, keeping the armour off table for now.

The Republicans were tasked with securing a village before the Nationalists arrived. The opening moves saw both sides being rather cautious as they advanced. The first casualties  came from the Nationalist mortar team. First taking out 3 Asaltos before their second shell landed amongst the Morrocans killing 2.




The Morrocans quickly began to secure the outlying buildings before exchanhing fire with some Brigadistas. The army though were taking some heavy punishment from the Asaltos, losing 1 section.




A second army section moved into the village to support the Morrocans who were starting to get the better of the Brigadistas. The Brigadistas were also suffering from a lack of ammunition. Timely saved by the arrival of an FT-17. 

However the Nationalists were now supported by a HMG team and their own FT-17. Now the army managed to inflict some heavy casualties on the Asaltos, who were  also low on ammo saw their own attack lose impetus.








Now the advantage lay firmly with the Nationalists, even the arrival of an ammo mule was to late. The Brigadistas were out of ammo and so to were half of the Asaltos. It was time for the Republicans to withdraw.

Overall a good game and test of the rules. Need to make a few adjustments to the Pluck tests and the spotting rules but otherwise they held up well.
