Close action near Kettering Northants is a 400 acre site based at the WWW2 USAAF base of Grafton Underwood. (nearest postcode NN14 3AA)
For those who have been to our games the entrance is 200m closer to the villgee of Grafton on the opposite side of the road from the old site.
We are now playing on the actual airfield amongst the bomb dispersal areas and B17 storage bays. Its a huge site with plenty of hard tracks going through the area. This will allow clear vehicle access across the site. The woodland is varied and great for infantry combat scenarios. Their is no public access.

This game will be a section based game with the hard pressed allies fighting desperately to stem the German Advance.
This is an infantry game so expect to do a lot of walking and covering distance with sudden close combat. We welcome vehicles.
German forces can be Heer, Waffen SS and Fallshirmjager.
Allied forces can be US infantry and Airborne, British infantry.
Cant wait to see the new game area,but its always harder to attack in an area you don't know at all.
It's a great site you will enjoy it
