The Panther vs Sherman Starter Set $24.99
Through the pouring rain, you can just make out the smoke billowing from your platoon commander’s tank. You are next in command. As if on cue, the radio buzzes. Corporal Stevens, always the cautious one, wants to retreat and regroup. But you know this is your time to strike. The enemy thinks they’ve got you on the run, got you cornered. It’s time to show them what happens when you poke at the hornet’s nest.

This is an interesting game from Battlefront. You have here almost a “gateway drug” product – leading new players into the larger world of Battlefont 15mm historical gaming. Tanks is a 30-minute game played on a 3×3 foot table with plastic 15mm WW2 tanks. The rules are free and the starter box is $24.99. I would imagine that after collecting a platoon or two, you and your mates might have aspirations for something a little larger and more complex. Battlefront may be able to help you with that…
~The Panther vs Sherman Starter Set will be released in April 2016.
