Thanks Stuart!!!

The Royal Dutch Navy for VaS….

“Instead of having to roll 4+ should I roll 2+?” Correct. Pen applies vs all targets in the same way – it increases the number scored on the dice rolled to wound. In this case a ‘2’ on the dice will become a ‘4’ due to the weapon’s +2 pen.

Points to note
– no matter how high the pen value, a natural ‘1’ on the die is a fail.
– while the pen…[Read more]

Jet applies to enemy aircraft within range of the Jet if you are talking about the “no climb” bubble – non Jets don’t get the free climb on activation

Thank you for the help!!!

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

That’s how it is. I did it. It is very “homemade” and fast, without much pretension since I am not very skilled. It serves to encourage you to do something like this quickly without much effort.

theres several possiblitys….

1)  note 1 shouldnt be there – its a version of the Corp cavalry brigade left in by bad proof reading
2) note 2 should say half of the brigades in the divison should be line light

You are very welcome!

Cool pictures! I like the sinking ship! Did you make it yourself?

Just last weekend one of my gaming buddies showed me this new scenario from Bolt Action Alliance. It is called “The Thin Red Line” and we had a great time playing it.

We also tried it using the one of the different methods for activating units from the document linked above, but this can still be found on BGG. We used the method that assigns…[Read more]

Thank you very much skymandr!!

Hi Jorge!

Happy to see that you are still sailing!

In the English version of the rules (Black Seas, 3rd printing, page 28; “Additional Rule: Strike the Colours”) it says:

The game effect isn’t that they’re all medics, it’s that the unit is always treated as being in range of a medic.

Being within 6″ of a medic model allows a unit to roll once for each casualty taken (not exceptional damage, heavy weapons or close quarters), ignoring that wound on a ‘6’. It doesn’t matter how many medic models are within that 6″,…[Read more]

You will roll 5 dice for their medic rule. As that is how I interpret the wording.

You’re very welcome, Mark.

I’m glad you’ll be giving the rules another go – I definitely think they are worth it.  The overall system is straightforward, especially as you’re already up to speed with HC.  They are also very flexible and easy to tinker with.
