Using Donnybrook rules again, this time more straight forward battles. 4 turns. 2 games were played in 2 hours. The second used more terrain to promote movement.

Back at the table
Nice to have Dan back at the table. We did the intro scenario for Ambush Alley/ Force on Force "Contractor Trouble".
The Marines squad has to get to the ambush site and rescue 2 PMCs and extract in 6 turns.
Although they turned in a flawless performance there were a couple of points were success rested on some lucky turns of the dice.
Marines enter from far side, 2 fire teams and squad leader.Moving tactically through the market
The other fireteam provides overwatch.
Reaching the PMCs, the Marines are attacked by a small group of Irregulars. Marines win the initiative and drop 2. The Irregular leader survives and bravely scoops up the fallen RPG and launches it into the truck!.......and rolls minimum damage...
PMCs in tow, Marines head for the extraction point. They will just make it within the turn limit unless...
Insurgents pool at the exit point to launch a last bid ambush. But again the Marines firepower sees them through the gauntlet. A perfect score win for Marines 15-0.

Sunday games
The first part of the day was a Star Wars Xwing rules rebel assault on an imperial hold out base.
The Rebels came in strong and damaged the Tie-Fighter hanger and shield generator at the cost of 1 A-wing. Fortunes suddenly shifted and 2 X-Wings and the B wing went down to TIE swarm and Laser Turrets. The Falcon was the sole survivor.
Part 2 was the commando raid to capture the
The Imperial officer.
Stealth went out the window turn 1 and a running gun battle went through the base until the team got to the locked control room.
The Turncoat agent tricked the Imperial into opening a cargo bay door while the Wookie smashed through another. The wookie struggled to survive against a Dark Trooper while the other commandos spirited away the stunned Admiral.
