If you download the faq or read the updated rules in air strike you’ll find a dirgam that shows you -yes the front arrow must be in the rear arc to get tailing

Thanks for the update, unfortunately I missed it but seen that pics are ok now.
I can’t force https on my side but it should be how things should be done to avoid you to lower forum security.

I’ve just post a reply in the BRS forum (rules topic) and the post is still invisible while I appear as the last poster.

The reason I suspect is one of the…[Read more]

Yes I think US trucks retain their transport capability, I haven’t fpund anything yet. But spotters cannot spot. See attached page 17 of the FAQ.

No the unit is NOT hit by the weapon that hits the transport vehicle… they are hit by sharpnel and debris of the vehicle.   THis is why you get get PEN bonus to the wound rolls.  Source is the FAQ.

As they are not hit by the flamethrower but rather the vehicle they where inside they only test if they lose 50%

Page 115 (attached):

Units in a transport can only be given Down orders not Fire orders, so they cannot call an arty strike while in a transport.

Page 153 (attached).

A transport loses its transport capability if it chooses a weapon.

Good point Stuart, I didn’t notice that. I attach screenshots from the Armies of Germany and Armies of France and Allies books. The French version has an additional hull mmg and a hull howitzer instead of flamethrower, hence cost 10 points more.

Thank you! Excellent!

sorry only seem to have posted half of what I was going to say!

The extrapulation (as I dont have the peninuslar box either) is that they are made to fit WLs rules… that is a battalion of 24 models with 4 grenadiers, 4 voltiguers and a command group as thats what the pictures on the store show (which seem to be pretty accurate)

Haha I gather that’s because it can fire its mmg (360°) and burn any infantry in its front arc at the same time 😂

The attached screenshot is from the more recent Overlord book.

I found the entry in the Battleground Europe book, and attach the screenshot. The last sentence is removed.

The “main gun” refers to its turret mounted light AT gun. I do think the “rear-mg” is a typo and should refer to its co-axial mg.

Warlord late war Battalions are 24 single piece models, with pack and heads separate  8 which had epaulettes.  There are multiple different Shakos

Hi Slartybartfast! Welcome to the forums.  You are always very welcome to post any questions – we all get a bit stuck and confused sometimes!

If your unit is disordered by the enemy shooting then in your next turn it can’t receive any orders as you say.  It can move on Initiative, but only to fall back from the unit that disordered it.  It does…[Read more]

Absolute beauties!

The ca. 100 men at the Beijing Radio Station in Italian concession under Lt. Cmdr. Baldassarre  had been a mix from army and navy.  The Navy officers and OR wore white naval tropical dress, the OR had a Khaki drill one that some may have worn. The army guys wore  the standard tropical khaki  uniform .  They had only light arms.

3/4 decided to f…[Read more]

That makes sense, however in the Clash of Eagles light infantry do have the special note – skirmish – yet you also have Russians Line Units with the rule ‘poor skirmisher’ which states that they dont benefit from the +1 bonus for skirmishers shooting…. when they can only do that in mixed formation (Russians dont have the option to form compisite…[Read more]

I received my arc of fire templates from Warbases today. I ordered one each of the 40mm, 50mm and 60mm templates. Attached 2 photos of the 50mm template in use.

Well, not enjoying modelling and painting is a big problem for a gamer. Some just buy ready made armies, a question of money.

Something I would never do, for me that is 3/4 of the fun. Esp. some converions.       I just finished my Blitzkrieg and Pionier sprues (the same, just extra metal parts) from two boxes. I did them in groups of 8 – 12.…[Read more]
