Thanks to you both Big Al and Mike for replying………..to big Al , I understood the commander rules old and new. But my question is..when I roll the dice to give an order to a unit by the officer in charge of the brigade, if the dice roll fails does this mean that that officer can give no more orders to anyone that turn??………..or can he…[Read more]

I misread his example, I thought he had three units charging a unit on the flank… not three units being charged on the flank…. I agree a unit being attacked on the flank gets no support.

It is only restricted to 4 H2H dice when it adopts a “closed column” and is in a column of companies.  It is adopts closed column and is in an attack column no such reduce H2H applies.  This is why you must identify whether the unit is in closed column or simply a column of companies or attack column.  Perhaps turning the back rank and facing it…[Read more]

The issue is that most of warlord games are what I call ‘frame work’ systems not ‘RAW’ systems.

What I mean by that is they are a frame work for clubs and groups to build upon/tweek to fit existing models or terrain or experience from other systems compared to say GW or Privateer Press’ RAW systems which tell you everything from unit base size to…[Read more]

Gary Willis it’s to late for that. I come to the forum and ask questions about the rules and get vague non committal answers. I would like it if someone, supplement author, anybody really to say well jim if you used the rules recommendations for the unit sizes the maps should be 9×5 if the scenario is battalions and 12×8 if brigades, but many…[Read more]

As usual the scratch built Model is made from balsa, cardboard and metal foil, some wire and a lot of glue.

A pity that Warlord is not doing new model types in the moment.  Add snail speed UPS and ….

The first came to the front 1942, T 22.  The type was built until end of war, the last getting  ready was T 36.   In Biscaya and Channel they became the main type, often encountered by the British MTB and other small attack craft.  Often successfully fighting Destroyers and Cruisers, the cruiser HMS Charybdis being sunk by torpedoes.

In Bisc…[Read more]

1) Yes it is, really.

Right, it all depends on which command rules you are using. The ones in the “Commanders” chapter do not allow any other orders to be given. However, if you read further into the chapter, it tells you that you can use the old rules from The first Black Powder Rules. In those, which most people have played for years, the Arm…[Read more]

The reason why the USN could stay at Pearl Harbor had nothing to do with torpedoes. It’s because the Japanese were focused on crippling the ships, and put less emphasis on the infrastructure – particularly the oil storage tanks. That would have been a dive bomber thing. And the reasons that caused the Japanese to deprioritize the tanks were…[Read more]

Thanks very much for your answers, I don’t see them before now, I had trouble with my account
