The Sitrep Podcast channel is back, everyone. Tonight we’re featuring a wargame commemorating the 110th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme, beginning in July 1916.

The system we’re using is “Valor & Victory” by Barry Doyle. Originally written as a World War 2 squad-level tactical system, expansions and modifications by Oriskany Jim shift the focus back to the grim trenches of the Great War.

The Battle of the Somme started with a massive offensive launched by the British and their Commonwealth allies in northern France. Losses on the first day would make it the bloodiest 24 hours in British history. Yet there were small successes, which we hope to replicate on our table today.
