Hi Skh25, sorry, I’m a bit confused – but happens easily 🤪!

My understanding is; on each command dice roll, you are either issuing an order to a single unit, or to a group of units at once (a battalia order).  If it is an order to a single unit then you measure the distance to the single unit and apply that modifier.  If you are issuing to a gro…[Read more]

They still had them, paid by the officers. Horse guard paid for drummers and buglers only.  Fortunately we have letters from officers as source. Not just modern oics.

@MasterCheif – two key words there IF & Manages.  The transport disembark in to combat means that you didnt get in to contact with the vehicle.

I disagree that the suicide AT rule should over ride the combat disembark rule, as that would mean the unit stays on board when every instict would be to jump out

Armies of Imperial Japan page 26:

Kamikaze. If a suicide anti-tank team assaults an enemy vehicle and the model manages to move into contact with the target, remove it and immediately resolve a hit against the vehicle with a Penetration value of +8 (no other penetration modifiers apply)

If their rule says it stops forward deployment then it’s stops all deployment using those rules.

About the outflank I’ll have to look at the rules again to say either way

Hi Tobias

A long list of stat, point* and rules related problems has been submitted to Warlord (including most of what you’ve listed here) and we are waiting on the studio to release an FAQ /Errata.

However some of what appears to be stat typos is due to the stats having real world influences, such as ammunition (AP & DD) and fire control…[Read more]

suicide bombers can fight in close combat*, they just cant declare a charge against the unit.

However in this case its the embarked unit thats effectively counter-charging the bomber.

*they dont have the ‘unarmed’ rule… now they IIRC they can chose to use the AT mine as their weapon – aka remove both models :p or ‘boot knife’

Or a scratch bagpipe, giving the ears of the poor English a rest.  Like I did.   Something different.

Rocket cars, mine was more reycling than scratch.

hi,

As IO pointed out the ship stats are taken from the realworld, which is why some guns of the same approx calibare have different AP and traits.  The ships fire control systems and the Nations ammunition manufacturing affects the range of the weapons.

And yes the points across the book are messed up and make little sense…

However you then…[Read more]

Converting can be like a drug. Its fun and I love to have MY own miniatures. I converted a full HLI unit years ago.

Easier than converting the London born son of a w.   into a Yorkshire one in a series of novels just beacause the actor ………….

Well, that character is so full of fuss that that change in later written books makes no d…[Read more]

For a typical German Farm of WW II time you should not add a silo.  Silage was common in UK and Scandinavia but most German Farmers still used hay only. A  farm in Western Germany sounds like Northwest to me.  Mostly smaller ones with some animal raising too. A fruit garden would be typical too, apple trees and some cherry ones.

The Farmer of…[Read more]

There are problems in real world  that cause delays for most gaming companies. . Corona and Brexit for example. But also longtime problems with mould makers. Much demand, few makers in UK.

Not everything is done “In house” by warlord. Even something simple like packing material can cause a long delay now.

If just one item comes from abroad…[Read more]

I GUESS because the real world German 15 cm had more “Bumms” than the 6 “.  The mv was bigger in most German 15 cm than in contemporary 6”. Esp. the SKC / 25 was superior. On the other side the projectile weight was higher in MK XXIII 6″, but similar in XXII.

For a game designer its ever difficult to design a working formula and keep close to…[Read more]

Nat is right following the rules.

But there is no reason to get the game close to real world among gentle   men.  For example the 88 was sometimes moved for short distances without motor. So in 1940 against French bunkers. With a few rounds on the Sonderanhänger. Slow, hard work. Under fire…….

On other side manhandling a medium gun, hmm…[Read more]

hmmm…..

It looks / sounds like its all hands to the pump to hit the promise of getting the BP Epic ACW out at the end of the month…..

1) light guns using DP are light guns that are able to shoot flights, they by pass Tough & Very Tough but are used during the ships activation -this has been confirmed by the Author on Social Media,  if you check out the ‘news from the wardroom!’ thread I’ve put up a flights 101 guide which has all the references of how they work.  There is also a…[Read more]

Hi skh25.  I think the standard interpretation is, that if you try to issue a battalia order, and it fails, then no one gets the order.  There is no picking and choosing.  In effect, but adding in extra units, beyond command range, you are increasing the risk of no order getting through to anyone. I don’t see there is any other way to interpret this?

Lovely stuff, RR.  I’m guessing that these forum entries have been “lost in the ether” for a while – good to see they are flowing through again.  I posted something last November that got lost so it could be another 5 months before that shows up.  I’d try re-posting, but I have forgotten what it was I posted !  😜

1) – yes pg 95
2) as heavy AT gun, no it can only pivot (pg 95)
3) heavy artilery needs a TOW, light /medium can be man handeled
