When I first saw some 10mm/12mm/N scale World War II vehicles,
I really liked them. I think that this is a great scale for WWII when using
more than a couple of vehicles on a side. On an 8’ by 4’ table,
you can have quite a large battle that looks good. Currently I game this scale
using modified Mein Panzer rules. It is a good game, but has a ton of detail
that slows things down if you use it all, so by streamlining some areas and
getting rid of some of the minutia, the game plays quicker while still being
a good representative game. My German forces cover pretty much the entire
war and consist of: Pzkw 38(t), various Panzer III’s and IV’s,
Panthers, Tigers, various half-tracks for a panzergrenadier company and supporting
elements, 37mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 88mm AT guns, StuG III’s (both the ‘B’
and ‘G’ versions), Jagdpanzer IV’s, and 222 and 234/1 armored
cars.
Early-war and Late-war British in Europe are next!
