The Perry 28mm ACW starter set

This post is effectively a re-launch of my 1/72 and 28mm project that started in February 2015, but fizzled to a slow burn distraction. Here, a focus returns to attempt getting 28's onto a small table for a battle in which each side can have at least a brigade sized formation or two in action.

Iron Cross T34 v Tiger I

Iron Cross - Great Escape Games.

Iron Cross are a fast play set of WWII rules for miniatures. They use an innovative activation system, which I will briefly go into in the post, but primarily the post is about how the system portrays gun / armour tables.
