While Spode faced up to the Anglicans to the north of Leominster, the BUF "Wyrd Force" (aka Giles) defended the east of the town against the incursions of the attacks from the Bromyard Republican Levies (aka Roo), and Staff Captain Maynard (aka Alan) held the western lines against Comrade Colonel I.V. Knockisblokov's newly raised Communist Shock Armies. Such was the fierceness of the fighting, only a few photographs remain of these actions:
 |
| Cautious advance from Wyrd Force's sailors |
 |
| A barricaded defence line for the outnumbered Wyrd Force infantry |
 |
| but the "Gods of War" clearly favoured Giles throughout the day. Just one of his initiative hands (Aces High, Jokers Wild) |
 |
| The flamethrowing tank of the Bromyard Republican Levy - just before it was disabled by a lucky(?)expert(?) shot from Wyrd Force's anti tank gunners. |
 |
| The Presteigne Communists brought along two sections of "Red Cavalry" (Perry ACW Cavalry conversions with PSC 28mm heads) |
 |
| ...who actually managed to "charge home" during the day (unheard of in the VBCW!) |
 |
| Mortar Fire Support (OOP PSC 28mm Soviets) |
 |
| New products from the Presteigne Motor Works ("PMW") - 20mm Oerlikon AT guns mounted on PMW 1.5 ton trucks. Ancient "Tudor Rose" guns on "cheep plastic" jeeps (with free 'moulded in' Red Star!). Infantry OOP PSC 28mm Soviets; standard bearer Copplestone Castings Neo-Sov (FW41) with paper flag. |
