Remember December Bolt action event

Its been a very long time between posts. I haven't been playing much in the way of war gaming or events since the arrival of V4 Flames of War. I'm just not keen on the new version of the rules at all but that's a rant for another time.

Remember December is a small event run each year at the Upper Hutt war gaming club in memory of Nick Garden who pasted away not to many years ago. This year it is 500pts Bolt action recon style forces. Rules were no free units, vehicles, arty/AT guns, arty or air OP or higher command units. So just infantry,  machine guns and snipers.

This is what I went with.

My Force giving me 7 order dice

My Sniper and General George Patton. He is just a standard HQ figure for this weekend. Sorry about the demotion.

Squads 1 and 2 with rifles, BAR and SMG's.

Squad 3 with SMG's and 2x .30cal MMG.

Should be good to play in an event again haven't done anything since Valleycon in January other then the odd game at home.
