A Comrades in Arms special game is in the offing towards the end of this year - all very hush-hush at the moment, more details soon!

30th and 31st August 2008 event

Everyone at CiA is looking forward to the August game 'Operation Husky'. Based on the 1943 Allied invasion of Sicily it will be run on the now firmly established Comrades in Arms film-sim style of play.

We will be using the Ex-Site site in North Wales, not too far from Chester. This unique site brings hills, rocky crags, bogs, gorse, bracken and woodland into play. There are some devilish open areas, spotting vantage points - oh, and our own Mount Etna!

Will it be Montgomery or Patton that reach Messina first? Or will General Guzzoni scupper their plans?

More on the game can be found here

This is a film-sim weekender game with evening cease-fire, joint camp to allow socialising. Comrades in Arms games are always a social event as well as a battle - like-minded people are good company!

Bryansk, 200 miles SW of Moscow May 1943

In the months running up to what will eventually become Operation Citadel, the Germans are building stockpiles of arms and ammunition. As the Partisans learn of this activity, convoys are increasingly being targeted. By mid May it’s becoming a race against time for both sides. Can the Germans neutralise the Partisans and keep the roads clear to transport enough material to the forward supply dumps to support the push?…. or can the Partisans with their excellent local knowledge capture and destroy the German convoys before disappearing back into the forests……?

Fine weather and a huge site saw Comrades in Arms players happy but exhausted following a gruelling battle of endurance and fire power. Fantastic turnout for the first UK Russian based battle which bodes well for for Ostfront action soon!
