02 Hundred Hours is “Grey for Now’s” skirmish game focusing on night-time raids in World War II. Inspired by classic war movies as well as historical events, battles are fast paced with roughly 10-20 models on either side.

The Germans regarded German shepherds as the canine “Master Race” and well over half of their war dogs were of this breed, although Doberman Pincers and other breeds were also used in lesser numbers.

Sentry or guard dogs were also widely used by both the Axis and Allies. These dogs were found to rely more on sight and sound than smell and needed to be retrained if they were to perform tasks that required scenting and trailing.

They were used to safeguard field positions such as command posts, airdromes, and supply dumps, and the Germans made an additional note of their use in guarding important industrial facilities against sabotage.

In 0200hrs Guard dog teams are integral part of the German players arsenal and besides they look “cool”!

I have put together a couple of teams for my games.

Tomorrow some more of my 0200 Germans
