Yes We Caen! - Late War Flames of War Narrative Event
PLEASE EXPAND THIS TEXT FOR FULL DETAILS
Yes We Caen! - The fight for Caen, Normandy 1944 - A narrative Flames of War event at Tabletop Republic High Wycombe on Saturday the 6th June 2026.
A narrative event themed around the battles in the east of the Normandy Bridgehead, around the City of Caen. Scheduled to be taken on DDay itself, the city would only be fully liberated on 19th July.
Not a competitive event, this is a thematic campaign day when teams will work together to overcome obstacles and use their resources to get the best result for their team.
Using “Red vs Blue” team formation, players will control a force of either the Allies* or the Axis entirely from the Late War DDay Compendium. Players must bring 3x Legal Forces entirely from the DDay Compendium with the same HQ & 2 “Black Box” compulsory units at 90, 100 and 110pts. Forces should be fully painted to a 3 colour minimum and should follow What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get (within reason).
All 3 lists must be submitted by 30th May to HHPainted@gmail.com
Titled “Yes We Caen - Your Name - Axis or Allied”
Over each of the 3 games each team will assign its points total to players and then to tables – this can mean unequal matchups for some games. Objectives will be placed by the Event Organiser but all other missions rules will be from existing published Battlefront missions. Scores will be via the Battlefront 8-1, 7-2, 6-3, format and will be combined with seizure of objectives to influence subsequent missions and available force points.
*US armies are allowed, but British (and Commonwealth) are encouraged!
