TANKSgiving Scenarios!
Want to game with some TANKS this year for TANKSgiving?
GrogHeads, 24 November 2015
How about a little tank-heavy assist to get you gaming over TANKSgiving?
Lets get started with a pair of scenarios from the guys at Lock’n’Load for their Tank on Tank games.
How about a tank shootout for the old BayonetGames Warfighter-series Movement to Contact?
- US Mission: Warfighter-MTC-Steel Jester
- OPFOR Mission: Warfighter-MTC-Blackhorse Slither
(if you need the maps, they can be downloaded here and here)
And if you’re a pixel-pusher? How about last summer’s GrogHeads Central Command Origins Scenario for Flashpoint Campaigns?
- This one includes the PowerPoint briefings, but you need to move the maps around yourself. Download it here.

What’s the biggest difference that players are going to see with the new FlashPoint Campaigns release?
Without a doubt it will be all the brand new maps. We had a forum member named William who was doing a brilliant job creating new map art and so we just sort of recruited him and added him to the OTS team. We went back and forth a few times on colours and elevation treatments and then he created new renderings of all the maps. This seems to be the first thing people are noticing and the consensus is that they are a distinct step up. Cap’n Darwin (creator of the original map art glyphs) and Mad Russian (who then assembled them into the maps we distributed) manned up admirably and got behind the change. I still hear a bit of a quiver in the Captain’s voice when we Skype about it though…
Other changes include a number of tweaks and improvements to the combat model. Artillery fire is more effective now and that is pretty noticeable. The What’s New document runs to 12 pages with the various changes we made.
Best of all, we have a whole new campaign (Wolves) to play thanks to Mad Russian plus a new standalone “Eyes, Ears and Teeth” scenario which we believe will be a new classic. It’s small, fun and intense like A Time to Dance.
