Depends what else is in your list, if its a single platoon, the terrain, the mission, & your opponenets list….etc etc

TBH for all round I’d look at using one of the units from duel in the sun/ fall of france where you can run multiples either in a single unit or as multiples in a single slot

Yeah discussed this on the WL discord and the common interpretation is that ‘cool down to zero’ should actually be ‘if stun &/or injury equal starting cool’ to prevent questions like this

Hate to say it… but this is usual for WL isnt it… nice games, but the rulebooks been written for people who know the game :p

If you’re trying to learn the game just from the book theres a few – eh what do I do now? moments :p

Hi Peter,

Its the devastating weapon trait (cant give you the page ref as in work….but its pg 12 in the Battle of the Pacific booklet which has the same wording) basically it goes – instead of causing 1 point of damage if you equal or pass the targets armour you do D6 damage…

Theres is debate if a natural 1 does 1 damage or 0 as its still…[Read more]

The partisan list was written as the French Resistance… and it shows…

re bicycles – seems logical to me…
motorboats – sealion is a campaign book written after the armies of… plus how often is the bronekater used in Soviet lists, you are at the mercy of the board if you can use them – so scenario only transport I’d say….

As to the…[Read more]

Given your plan of holding the line and blasting with the heavy stuff, I would suggest the trucks are not needed. And since you have gone for 2 platoons, why not make use of that and  buy a 2nd mortar to really add to your plan?

S

1) Rules which work on a unit level are ignored as the game works on the individuals level not squad… (so yes Green is ignored)

2) see 1

3 ) see 1

4 + 5) in comon use English IE & EG are interchanageable, basically used as the same thing – heres a non-exahustive list of examples

6) As Warlord is the only officer option…. well Warlord…[Read more]

two different sizes… try looking at FFGs

off top of my head (I’m at work… game isnt :p) the small cards look to be about the size of mini US & the large ones standard Euro…

However if you have the cards and a tape meassure then you should be able to find an online shop that stocks sleeve kings or similar who do pleanty of sizes.. If not &…[Read more]

@legere TBH all you need is a token to go on the table to tell you if the ship has a critical effect…. then laminate the ship card are write the effects on there.

Aren’t armoury cards are both discard on use (unless the model has a rule to keep it – like judges do with lawgivers) and retain like resporators

The OT130 rules are in Ostfront …. as Soviet only…..

However the FAQ/Errata does allow you to add it (any captured tank to any force) for no other points cost but gaining the unreliable rule (same as Finish T34s) and recommended that its kept at inexpeiranced (but for Fins I’d say inexperienced or regular is fine)

Its basically a T26 with a…[Read more]

Thank you Stuart.

I’m not surprised that Walord starts another  range and then……   Being one of the crazy that likes scratch building I’m less affected than many others. I had hoped for an exension to W I.  In fact most of my hobby budget of last year went into “hardware”, antique stuff up to 1918. Like the cap of a sailor from SMS Emden.

Cruel sea is not the…[Read more]

The last question has been answered by Skytrex when they took over the rage last month…. there are currently no plans to expand that range…

Why distribute rules with no models /plans for making the models – well a lot of historical games use multiple manufactors, plus you get the intrest of the company management but then not the sales to…[Read more]

my view is that (as I’ve said else where) CA is a few ideas short of completion :p

but BRS v ground targets – see how many hex’s defending aircraft are away… thats how many turns go by before they turn up…half the turns (or turn 4 if not on the board) to turn up disadvantaged?

VaS idea… transports are free but you get a % of the BA points…[Read more]

I would go with the attacking force choosing the game…

IE if air units attack then its BRS (either airstrike or sqn v sqn)
if sea unit then its VaS or CS…

For VaS v transports I would see how many transports / proxies for them I have and then allocate BA army points to each transport with 10-20% allocated to convoy protection

ie a 1K BA…[Read more]

well… its official…. you only get 1 blue card …

so yeah if you want to play VaS or CS in your campaign your iniative card deck gets bigger :
& either VaS or CS was a later addition and someone forgot to alter the number of cards in the rulebook on the number of iniative cards you get ….
