IIRC, there are now rules for this in Konflikt 47, in the Defiance expansion….

Howdy y’all!  L.T. Russell here, initials not rank.  I’m in Helena, Montana, by way of El Paso, Texas, originally from Herndon, Virginia.  I’m an old, retired guy.  Been gaming since my older cousin was taking me to the Wargaming Club at Indiana University, back in the 70s.  The good folks up here at White Knight Games & Hobbies got me back into…[Read more]

@lawrence well you’ve got a couple of issues…

1 – game balance, LMGs went up to RoF 4 in v2 because they werent in use
2 – time frame – the RoF is not actual but game balance slant on effectiveness
3- Role – just because something isnt a X weapon in the view of modern eyes doesnt mean it wasnt used in that role… examples would be the MG43 or…[Read more]

I play Germans and I’ve always gotta have a squad of Nachtalben. I make sure to add an extra guy or two to the squad to take advantage of Fatherland Resurgent and I load them up with panzerfausts and AT grenades.  Their Elite ability can be a game changer and Fast, Behind Enemy Lines, Tough and IR Vision are all useful….

Video on the Bren (and a few other MGs in use by the Brits early war) – the last 20 seconds or so show it in use on the tripod.

… and with the 100 round…[Read more]

Howdy Stuart!  Thanks for your thoughtful reply.  I concede mosta your points about Bren vs. BAR.  It was Pete Kokalis’ writings that first made me aware of the quick-change barrel on the Bren and the value of the top feed receiver.  As a former M60 machinegunner, I will continue to quibble about the sustained firepower of multiple linked bel…[Read more]

1. Agree on shotguns.

2. Agree on FG42.

3. Totally disagree on the Bren gun. If you’ve ever been part of a team with one, you’d see the difference between it and a BAR immediately. The top fed system allows the second man to have the replacement magazine in place before the gunner has even finished the movement of tossing the empty mag under…[Read more]

Howdy!  New to the forums….

IDK if these topics have been addressed already, if so, I apologize.

Shotguns; Last I’ve seen in Bolt Action, shotguns have a range of 18 inches.  IMHO, in a system where pistols shoot 6 inches, submachineguns 12 inches, assault rifles 18 inches and rifles 24 inches, this is ludicrous.  Military shotguns tend to be…[Read more]

Its still in beta, but aside from the fact that ALL types of soviet comissars disapeared last update is pretty much there.

Actually …. scrub that… cant use it today – no abilty to select a nation to create a list!

The answer to that is very nebulus…

Its down to the TO…thats the bottom line of Tournaments.

Its their choice to what books they allow… they can over-ride the FAQ, and often do limiting armies to units from X books… Some will make allowances for a specifc army ie theirs a tournament near me that will only allow armies of books, but allow…[Read more]
