Thanks for that page reference. I thought I was going mad. I knew it was there, but couldn’t find it no matter how hard I looked. I even looked in BP1!

Going blind!

general rule of thumb for a 4 x 6′ board at the club where I play is make a board that looks like a land mark that would be fought over… be it cross roads, a small village with a church, a river crossing etc

to do that you’ll want 7′ of river with at least 1 bridge and 2 crossings (you want a couple of bends in the river)

about the same in…[Read more]

No because thats two separte orders…. 1 is a charge & the other is a move

just the bridge.. the relavent part is page 3 where it talks about the bridge being the location of the ship

Hi Frank,

I’ve put the wardroom FAQ up in its own thread which covers a number of questions… but I’ll stress most are unoffical!!!

However to answer what you’ve asked

Tough – yes local 1 = impossible to shoot down a tough plane… however DP guns can! (the FAQ has a complete breakdown of how AA works)

Carrier points – yes at the moment..…[Read more]

Didnt think artillery could counted as a small team?

but like Master Cheif I hadnt noticed the cost differene…. I dont own any of the small AT guns, prefer to take Zis3s for my artillery

@Master Chief – the M3 Scout car has the option of taking 4 pintel mount HMGs with have limited fire acrs in game … off top of my head front + left, front + right, rear + left, rear + right

@Thomas – the HMGs are on the corners of the transport area and whilst theoritically alble to fire accross the loading bay its not that practicle

The change in currancy acceptance and the related exchange rate may not be warlord, but rather the bank that provides the payment portal..

espically as its now been updated to accept applepay & googlepay

I stress may.. .because I dont know which system they use to provide the payment portal

@enioch – so you agree with my reading.. thats good!

@d.giessmann – the Val & Kate are in the main rulebook from what I hear 🙂 …theres over 40 pages per nation!… most of the mongoose v2 beta is included…

also some of the US distributors are putting the Sub & MTB boxes up for pre-order … so hopefully we’ll see them at the same time as…[Read more]

Seems appropriate:

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

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]

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]

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]

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.
