Yes Warlord prices have gone up and also switched to billing customers in their local currencies instead of in £. In my local currency prices have gone up by 50%. It is really madness and I have written in to them in this, but nothing has been done. Hopefully if enough people write in they may do somethig about it.

Seems appropriate:

I did a quick search and Frontline Games sells a resin German weapons pack (see link below).

Frontline Games

British & Canadian beaches at DDay campaign book..

Was supposed to be released about now..but I think/seen to recall seeing somewhere that January is the new release date

No idea if it’s going to have models released..the latest Pacific books haven’t

So your saying ignore the dogfight completely?

Note I’m not talking tactics about if you should engage the attacking bomber flight or not ….purely what would happen if you did

Yes and the world is also filled with teams who failed because the leader wouldn’t or couldn’t do a “lower” level task, with the excuse that it is not their role and they have more “important” things to do. Or are you saying it is OK for the NCO to be a loader but not a gunner?

Whatever the case the FAQ is out there until it is amended. But as I…[Read more]

Thanks! guy’s

I wrote LMG, not SMG.  It surely affects the leaders job. A good leader is not just showing his rank signs, he commands.  And for that he needs all his senses to control the fight.

Holding that weapon is no problem but serving it is.   A LMG demanded a lot of “love” to work. So both crewman had to focus on that job. No time left to look wha…[Read more]

It could be. I wrote to Warlord and they told me they would answer in the next FAQ

I started playing Bolt Action 2nd Edition with the US Airborne, followed by Rangers, US Infantry, Soviets, 8th Army, LRDP, Afrika Korps, British Army and Commandos. Currently I am half way through my British SAS (European) force, to be followed by the British Airborne. Waiting in the wings are German (Heer, SS, Fallschirmjäger), Chindit,…[Read more]

So a little of history mixed with a bit of game play… using tank veterancy rules as a base idea…here is Nats idea! ™ :p

Tiger fear : 1943 onwards.  All German tanks with an armour value of 8+

If an activating unit can draw LoS to a unit with this rule it must take an order check or change its order to down or run, and must end its…[Read more]

So define intresting….

looks / modeling – you’ve got the IFF  late 1944, so you can do a mix of free french in US & British uniforms with US armour + resistance fighters (with IFF arm bands) & supporting SAS / para’s /rangers

You’ve got British /Free french/dutch/norwegian etc commandos

LRDG (long range desert group) for that raiders with…[Read more]

Tomato Paste often comes in these metal tubes in the UK. Not sure about the US.

I understand that peoples dislike the Tiger fear.  But it was a well intended rule based on history,  a psychological rule based on the Allied hystery about Tigers. Adding historical flavor.

We have literally hundreds of reports of being attacked by Tigers – with no kitten around for a hundred miles.

And in many Allied soldiers ran from “T…[Read more]

Do explain how holding a rifle, pistol, SMG, BAR or LMG would affect the NCO’s “leadership”. But as I said, players can believe what they will, and if they want to blame, blame it on the way the rules or FAQs are written, not on “interpretation”. If they want to complain, submit it to Warlord Games. I for one am waiting to see how Warlord Games…[Read more]

That gamy discussions about words.   I can just repeat, officers and NCO are with a unit to lead, not to kill themselves.  Serving a LMG makes their true job impossible.

So they should loose any officer / NCO Bonus.

And yes, it’s no historical simulation. But based on history.       And real world. You can’t do many things at same time. Th…[Read more]

Not that thick can stuff but that formerly used on toothpaste tubes. They are today mostly made from plastic but other stuff still comes in that foil material. It is ideal.
