Thank you, Mark

Hi Stuart,

Thanks for taking the time to reply. That makes sense.

From the FAQ:

“Page 147 “The special abilities of officers and other HQ units
mounted on transports work as normal, as long as they are being
transported in soft-skinned or open-topped armoured transports.” Does
this mean that an observer in an open-topped or soft-skinned transport
can call air strikes and artillery barrages?

No, they cannot do…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Air/arty observers have actual clarity in the rules for when in vehicles: they can’t be issued a “Fire” order and as such cannot call thier strikes from inside a vehicle. They can still be used to spot for artillery though, so have a serious use case especially with things like nebblewerfers.</p>

Can you clarify if a forward air/artillery observer can call in the attack if mounted on an open topped vehicle? If so can he still do so if the vehicle has advanced? Ran?

Sorry not looked at this forum for a few weeks…

Have we (the wardroom) looked this aircraft – yes
is it worth it – not really I’m afaid
reason is that rate of fire isnt really taken into account … at best it would be a flight the same as the other B25s but with MTBs light gun

One thing I like  to do , is open up the hatches that are molded closed . A lot of the newer kits are staring to have separate hatch covers but the older stuff is sadly lacking .

Cool .  I did something similar converting the Puma to a 234/3 with the  Warlord 251/9 sprue they always seem to have on a half price sale . In fact I grabbed all those 251 sprues on a “just might need ut one day ” kind of thing

Here was an easy kit-bash I did sometime ago. I had this extra 20mm turret from a Rubicon Models kit, and thought, “Hey, SdKfz234/1”, so a tweaked it to fit my 1:56 scale plastic Puma (SdKfz234/2) kit by Italeri/WG. Yes, nowadays, you can get the Sdkfz 234 and Variants kit from Rubicon Models, and with the 280048 expansion kit, you can also build…[Read more]

Cheers guys for the responses – that makes a lot more sense – I didn’t think to consider it meant adding to the staff rating/reducing the roll. Thanks all for helping me, greatly appreciated – now I can get back to chucking my game (if rash) cavalry at their French counterparts in the Peninsula!

hello there

Sadly no , I brought a set a long while back thinking they would feature in the  rules but no , nor are their any rules for Druids , although they are mentioned in some of the supplements I did save the rules for war dogs before the old forum crashed

If you really want to play Gurkhas – you have the “Gurkha Section” on page 237 of the main rule book. In that section they have “Tough fighters and Scary Blighters” rules as place holders until the Armies of the Commonwealth book comes out next year. Unfortunately, you can only are two dudes with SMGs in the Gurkha section.

Yes but what exact nations and units I don’t know, seems the British Raj/India will be there with its Gurkhas. Warlord put out this release date map; Armies of the Commonwealth should be out in Q3 2026

Howdy Darin, John!

Yeah, I just checked my Armies of Great Britain 3rd Edition, and there’s no listings for any of the other Commonwealth nations.  I “assume” this will be coming later or perhaps is out on a PDF….

Asked for a clarification on this, they said to continue to use the army selection in the Core rulebook until Armies of the Commonwealth comes out.
