Operation Nordic Lion 2023
With Antti A, Figure Fellows Lahti

On the 25th and 26th of March Figure Fellows Lahti and Nopat & Taktiikka organised a 85pts WWIII: Team Yankee tournament in Parola Armour Museum who were very generous in helping with food, coffee, jelly doughnuts, tables and most of all the venue: Exhibition Hall 2 (Cold War &modern equipment). Yes, we were playing amid the actual vehicles of the era!

During the whole time, the museum was open (the museum's normal opening hours) for the public so people could come and talk to us and ask questions about the game and we were more than happy to answer and show how the game was played. Some visitors even got to roll some dice and move the vehicles around the table.

14 players took part in this two-day event where we played 5 games in total (3 on Saturday and 2 on Sunday). Each game was limited to 2.5 hours. The games were hard-fought and every game saw a lot of blown-up tanks and scattered infantry. Some games lasted shorter and some longer, even to a point of timeout for a mutual loss for both players.

But after all the games were done, the dust had settled and tank wrecks cleared, we had our results.

2nd place: Aito
3rd place: Jaakko

Best Sportsman: Aito

I want to thank everyone for participating in the event. Thank you Nopat & Taktiikka for the material, logistical and moral support. Thank you Parola Armour Museum for the most excellent and appropriate venue, food and service. And thank you Battlefront for the awesome prices.
