On the Border ( with apologies to Al Stewart) a Portable Wargame.


Elements of the Volare- Cantare army have poured across the border into the Empire. Tanks and mountain troops are leading the attack. Local units of the Empire army including cavalry and tanks have rushed to the area to halt the invaders at the main north road...

      Tankettes ,l so agree. Forty years ago l had a 1/300 scale Italian army, it was outgunned but l really liked it. I enjoy the Pathe news reels of interwar tankettes zipping about all over the place.

    Everybody likes a nice tankette ... and here to inspire the troops is Hetty the Forces Sweetheart of the Volare Cantare ground and air forces with her non-marching band. https://youtu.be/4Q1xpCN-vhA

      Mark, thank you for the link, a wonderfully chilled rendition of the National Anthem. I shall listen further to Hetty today as l paint the recruits. As for tankettes, what is not to like?
