Dust on the Wind

I may do all the writing around here, but I am not the one running around shooting and blowing stuff up. I leave that kind of stuff to the experts. I have noticed that when it comes to the Dust 1947 game there is actually surprisingly little information out there when it comes to paint jobs and tactics. I decided to try and fill that gap like a WWE wrestler coming into the ring, but lets be honest it's more like a high school wrestling match. I am attempting to help alleviate some of this issue with some tactica discussion and insights that I see in my local meta (mostly my living room). This is all my personal opinion and in no way should inform you on what is going to help you take over the world of super-competitive game tables, but maybe I can give you an idea you didn't think about. This time around I am going to be discussing the gorgeous Valkyrie of the Luftwaffe, Lt. Florentine Engel from the Rakentruppe Korps. Luftwaffe Florentine Da Good One of the best...

Hello wargamers! My very good buddy Tim and I decided that we wanted to start a campaign since we are both suckers for narrative gaming. I recently introduced Chain of Command to him since we both love games set in World War II, and he took to it like a fish to water. For reasons discussed a little later, we decided to theme it around fighting in the forests and towns of the Bastogne area of Belgium.

Tim knew and frequently conversed with someone who was actually there and is the actual commanding officer of the company that he is going to play. I could write about everything I was told, but I figured I would just let Tim write it himself. His respect for the man being t...

I got feedback from a few people and I decided I would try and implement some of the recommendations. I wanted to take a moment to make sure I expressed how grateful I was for anyone who reads this blog. I am even more grateful for the people that  took the time to help me make it even better. I truly appreciate the time and effort it took to figure out how to make this blog better and telling me. I am always willing to hear constructive criticism, and would love anyone to tell me what they think. The most asked thing I get is if I will ever do this on youtube as video battle reports. I reckon that yes it will happen eventually. I just need to wait until this COVID stuff is all said and done.  Pre-Game With water secured and the enemy force scouted out, Rommel could finally launch his attack and not have to worry about falling apart if he needed to retreat. The United States Marines Corps had prepared and were ready to sally forth and push the Axis from their main obje...
