Balkan Labels and a Hex Grid




The forces of the Sublime Porte - note the MG labels on the right

Above are examples of the labels I have drafted for use as the Turks and Bulgarians for my Balkan Wars project. For the most part they are identical to the earlier blue and grey versions (merely a change of colour) but with the important addition of a machine gun label.


The forces of Bulgaria


I have also managed to draft a hex grid in Paint which will be really useful for scenario design and campaign maps, as well as battle reports.

The Hex Map


I plan to add the labels to their blocks tomorrow evening and then I will need to give some thought to the rules beyond the initial Portable Wargame phase.

This site might be useful for hex grid maps of various sized hexes... three sizes....

Hi Steve,

many thanks for this - they certainly look very useful so I have bookmarked them accordingly.

All the best,
