The Polish-Soviet War 1919-1920.

 It's strange how history seems to repeat itself in certain parts of the world. Currently as of 2024, Ukraine and Russia are fighting over the survival. 

100 years before, the Ukranians were fighting with the Poles against the Russians.

Wargames Illustrated February 2019 has this conflict listed.

I have suitable figures just need to get them on the table again

Polish Army

Polish troops were wearing Imperial German Army gear, having served in that Army. 

The 6th Ukranian Division was kitted out by the British. 

Even French uniforms were worn.

The Soviets are in Russian First war uniforms. So I'll drop in what I got.

Across The Great Divide Bridging in WW2

 Alrighty.  This post could date all the way back to 2001!

Wargames Minatures issue November 2001 had this article showing game ideas for using engineers to build a bridge at a contested crossing.

Now when I was in Japan around 2002, I fought this game in a Cold War/Balkans conflict using NATO troops to put across a crossing taken out by a Serbian force.
