Current Campaigns
World War II - Coral
Sea
This is a two player game set in May of 1942. The Japanese are required to invade Port
Moresby within five days. The Allies have to stop them. There have been some classic air versus
ship battles in this very interesting campaign. This link gives an overview and a turn by turn
description of the campaign. Rules used are our modified Avalon Hill "Midway" game called the
" Coral Sea campaign game," "Blue Sky - Red Sun," and
"Shipbase."
Vikings - Fighting for pigs and
glory
This is a fun campaign
that we play when one of the larger games runs short. The four players
each control a family of Vikings and their karls. The families squabble about a variety of things,
and most games are attempts to steal livestock from the hapless farmers in the area. Howard
Whitehouse's "Battle Troll" rules, heavily modified, are the set used for this campaign, with the
campaign features regulated by our "Pigs and Glory".
Civil War - Spring, 1862 - Eastern
Theater
This is a long running campaign that currently has six players. The campaign started on April
1, 1862 with the union and confederate forces deployed as they were historically on that date.
There have been a number of battles as the two sides have grappled for advantage. This link
describes some of those battles and the commanders assessment of the campaign. Rule sets used
are "Johnny Reb 2", " 1862 " (Home campaign
rules).
World War II - Western Front
This is a squad level game of ground action in late 1944 in France. There are four players in
the campaign, two German and two American. Each side has a company of troops deployed on a
map. The objective is to, within fifteen days (two turns per day) find and capture or destroy the
company headquarters of the enemy. This link describes some of the actions and disasters that
have occurred. We use "Battleground" for this campaign, plus some "
home grown" campaign rules.
