20mm WW2 British - Westland Lysander for SOE operations

Just finished a small project, a Matchbox 1/72 kit of a Westland Lysander. Already in operation at the beginning of WW2, they weren't considered to be of much use, but then came into their own for SOE operations behind enemy lines in France, mainly because they could operate out of a small field, had tough suspension, and could fly at a low speed of 55mph if needed. Only one was lost in active SOE service throughout the war.

The SOE variants were painted matt black rather than the usual green/brown/blue combination of more traditional British warplanes.

Intended use of the kit is for a Rapidfire scenario game where the plane has landed, been met by British agents and Resistance fighters, and then discovered by German patrols, so mainly a small arms game, but maybe including a German half-track or two.

GdA2 - Russians attack Austrians and give them a damned good Paggering (but lose the game)

The attacking Russian (Robin and Guy) force broke several Austrian (Jeremy and Adrian) infantry battalions and cavalry regiments through judicious use of artillery, musket fire, and charges.

BUT the Russians failed to take the two key objectives before the night came to a close, and so the Austrians won the game...damn their eyes....
