Steering compromised or engine damaged would both be a second immobilised result, so destroyed (no pivots to reduce and no speed to reduce – the interaction between these rules and the immobilised rule should be tightened up).  Turret jam would depend on whether the vehicle currently has a valid working turret to absorb the result.

The second…[Read more]

thanks :-))

if there is a line battle with HMS Victory in light sail, the whole line will progress with 3 inches.

best regards

Thank you for the answer.

If that would be a regular 28mm rules, I’d agree and accept that. But the Epic Scale dictates more miniatures on the tabletop, that’s why I still see “3 bases” for artillery and no option to reduce the quantity

Hail and Hello,
My name is Daniel Morgan, and I am located in Tucson, Arizona.  I am part of a small local game group called Javelina Flight El Escuadron 857th, Vuelo del Javelina.
(Yeah long name.)  But we just call it “Javelina Flight”. We began as a Tucson-based squadron of players devoted to Wings of War — both WW1 and WW2. As time passed, w…[Read more]

Disclaimer – Dont have & havent played epic

However, in standard BP artillery are a single gun in the rules with an optional rule to allow the size to be shown with additional models.. this is normally because only Russians (in Napoleonics) can have large batterys, everyone else normal or half….

Looking at the stats you’ve shown I’d say that…[Read more]

Thanks for the in depth reply.
<p style=”text-align: right;”>I’ll definitely look for the SHIPS rules, especially because I like home brewing my own ships.</p>
As far as the list goes, I think I’ll find a roughly equal BB for each side to make things more interesting.

Thanks

So WLPA is based on the base costs of the ships as they are in the rulebook -0 with the biggest outliers (Alaska, Bismark, Yugumo etc) having the base cost guestimated into line.  Its a backward working of the points value then a review of the refit costs so they make sense.

SHIPS is a ground up total recalculation – the guy who wrote it has…[Read more]

Thanks Nat!

I noticed the crazy points discrepancies too. Do you happen to have a link to the WLPA chart? Also what’s the difference between WLPA and SHIPS?

Thanks for the input. Are there any rules of thumb for VaS lists? I know in Bolt Action you wanted lots of infantry.

Aye, iniative orders are
within 12″ of enemy
before brigade commanders order
1 move

I would say yes, it is an initiative order and for that you need to be within 12″.  It may not get you out of range of the enemy but it does leave a space for you to move fresh troops into.

So, looks like you are using WLPS (WarLord Points System – the rulebook points) …. this isnt that great espically with regards to the refit costs!  As a general rule of thumb I suggest only using WLPS for learning the game or quickly putting a last minuete game together at a club… A good indercation is how type93s can be either 5 or 10 points…[Read more]
