Battlefront UK Open Day June 30th 2018 Cleve Lodge, Long Eaton, Derbyshire NG10, UK. Are you going to the Battlefront UK Open Day? Make sure you get along for some sweet swag and a day of fun games as well as a chance to meet the Battlefront staff! Today we've updated the event page with images of our model of the Doctor riding a Chieftain which will be given to everyone who comes along to the Open Day (along with the 28mm version for players of the board game). He is striking a pose perfect for anyone about to get down to the serious business of having an axe battle!

Also to go along with our 'Nam game there is a Fate Of A Nation demonstration game. Tim and Gareth have planned their forces for a show down in the Valley Of Tears and are building the armies that you will get a chance to play with. Find out more about the Valley Of Tears here ... Got a question you want to ask the team? Please submit your questions for Peter, John-Paul, Phil and Wayne, to our European Customer Service Team by Saturday 16th June and we'll do our best to get them answered.

Free Nations - Book Spotlight The world of Team Yankee continues to expand, and our newest book adds four more nations to the roster of forces with which to play. Free Nations started as an idea to add some of the forces of the smaller NATO nations, but grew into something much bigger with four western nations covered (well, technically five if you choose to run your ANZACs as New Zealanders). Wayne looks at Free Nations and all the different nations in the book. Free Nations in Team Yankee... Free Nations Pre-order...

Soviet TANKS Previews It is time for the Soviet juggernaut to once again be unleashed on the TANKS world. Like the British, the Soviets benefited from the Lend Lease program and received Stuart and Lee tanks from the US, as well as Valentine and Churchill tanks from the UK. Of course they had plenty of their own designs including the fearsome KV, the bane of many a Panzer commander as well as an earlier version of the T-34 that was being manufactured in Stalingrad whilst the fighting drew ever closer. Check out these sneak peeks before they release in August and September. KV Tank Expansion... T-34 (Early) Tank Expansion... Lend Lease Valentine Expansion... Lend Lease Churchill Tank Expansion...

Firestorm Tunisia - Terrain The terrain in Tunisia is rugged, unique, and had a major influence on the battles fought there.  Several new terrain features are introduced for Firestorm Tunisia.  Get ready to encounter vast Salt Beds otherwise known as tank death traps; Rocky Ground that makes it impossible to dig in; Heavy Scrub that is perfect for hiding an ambush; and entrenched, dry water-ways called Wadis that form a natural and formidable defense.  Heavy spring rains would then transform these difficult terrains to nearly impassable.

Firestorm Tunisia - Units One of the exciting features of a Firestorm campaign is the use of additional “free” units that are added to players’ forces for each battle.
