Nat replied to the topic Please Explain "Prussian Square" in the forum Black Powder 1 year, 8 months ago

So… are you playing Core Rules or Clash of Eagles Expanded rules? Or the revised Waterloo epic (which is somewhere in the middle… but I dont have a copy so cant comment further on that)

Now irrespective of that…

If charged in the front when your flanks arent secured by either a unit in square, building or table edge if your unit has…[Read more]

Derrick started the topic Please Explain "Prussian Square" in the forum Black Powder 1 year, 8 months ago

So I have played a couple of learning games with my local group.

My line infantry was charged by Cav. I formed square and thought I could shoot. Form square says you can’t, Prussian Square seems like it says you can. Though it says you have to be in Attack Column which I was, until I had to Form Square.

Can someone help a noob out 🙂

TIA

A buddy and I are attempting to work out way through the scenario book Soft Underbelly, so far we’re just up to scenario three. It’s been a blast so far, I’ve added the last AAR to my blog to encourage more to do the same

Kar98k replied to the topic Kit Bashing Figures – Easy Peasy or a PIA ? in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 8 months ago

The one thing I really like about plastic figures over metal is the ease of kit-bashing and conversions.

See the pictures below of some really simple German Grenadiers (Warlord plastics) conversions.
I made these using parts from other sets (bits box), or modifying the parts from the original sprue.
Yes, I still have mold lines to clean up, but…[Read more]

Stuart Harrison replied to the topic Pins in close combat in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 8 months ago

The only affect of pins on close quarters is requirement for an order test (attacker) and reduced effectiveness of reaction fire (defender).

The why would require input from the author, but consider that in first edition the simple fact of getting into close quarters removed ALL pins from both sides – my guess would be the author’s intent was to…[Read more]

Sorry if this has been covered before but do pins count in close combat? And if they dont then why not. I know what the book says but am i reading it wrong?

Witch Racer started the topic Acthung Panzer in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 8 months ago

I’m posting this here as there is no Acthung Panzer section yet.

My question is firing hits Turret, Hull or Running gear! But air strikes and artillery are against Engine deck. So my air strike hits and does damage but does not destroy where do I place damage marker, Turret, Hull or Running gear! If so how do I roll to see where hit? We played r…[Read more]

Pete started the topic New Player Here, Couple of Questions about Warlord Games' Support in the forum 2000 AD 1 year, 8 months ago

Hi,

I’m Pete from Perth Western Australia and I just recently bought into Judge Dredd I am the Law and Slaine Kiss My Axe.

These are my first Warlord games (not counting the Dr Who minis game that I didn’t really like) and I was wondering what is Warlord Games’ support level for these titles?

I know that the ABC Warriors game only just was…[Read more]

Pete replied to the topic Community Introductions in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 8 months ago

I’m Pete, West Australian Tabletop gamer who has just bought into Judge Dredd and Slaine and looking forward to Narrative telling skirmish battles, may possibly even make some video battle reports on my YouTube channel Pete’s Fried Chicken Gaming.

Given the Slaine community here seems dead based on posts/answers/activity, I have just made a FB group.

Robert Scholtz replied to the topic Bolt Action 3rd Edition in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 8 months ago

I hope they finally fix the Firing Smoke rules.

The opposing player should not be able to determine the landing point of a smoke round that does not land on target. The landing point should be randomly determined using the “Miscalculation” effect in the Smoke Barrage Chart.

I’ve been playing Bolt Action since before the version 2 rules came…[Read more]

Ian replied to the topic Bolt Action 3rd Edition in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 8 months ago

I hope they take this opportunity to finally make squad LMG’s and MMG’s worth choosing in an army selection. At the moment they are poor points value and don’t reflect their importance on the battlefield.

SteveT replied to the topic Bolt Action 3rd Edition in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 8 months ago

So it seems it is finally happening… September.

Michael Stockin replied to the topic Slaine Questions after initial games in the forum 2000 AD 1 year, 8 months ago

Response so far has been deafening, is there someone else people go for Slaine support?

Michael Stockin started the topic Slaine Questions in the forum 2000 AD 1 year, 8 months ago

Groups, the whole group is activated when you pull the relevant token.
But also you add one token per model.

So in a game with a group of 3 models vs 1 model.
You will have 4 tokens, 1 per model.
But what happens when you pull a group token, activate a model, place the token next to it to show it has been activated, and then pull another…[Read more]
