You need some benefit for spending (Napoleonic suplements) 25 points per pip of Staff Rating….

plus dont forget that you need to spend a ‘move order’ to change formation and there’s no pre-measuring or stating I’ll move x”s forward its Y unit will go to Z location then change formation / hold ground /unlimber etc etc… so even with 3 moves…[Read more]

Currently no… just acting as a reseller for Perry Minitures

ps – nothing to do with Warlord so have no idea if they have any ideas about changing this going forward

Ok it was the August copy, which has already shipped and is available to buy.

There are no specific answers in the main rule book ..and I don’t have the close quarters supplement however …

guessing, but using historical usage as a start…

1) stationary or slow

2)only the launching model, not able to target emu thing at close range on the arc where you are launching

3) all

4) nope

5) nope

6) small or l…[Read more]

There is an optional rule for units of troop transports

If the mortar is firing then its the mortar that is receiving the order and so needs to test, and will receive the order die next to them.  The spotter just provides LoS to the target (and due to not having an order die next to him can claim DOWN if targeted)

You can think of it as spotter & mortar are 2 separte units that share Line of sight…[Read more]

So an update on the Chelmsford Bunker BP front!

We have 5 French*, 6 British*, 2 portugese (one with french as well) and a Prussian force being started!

*a couple of guys are doing a force for each so we dont have blue on blue pick up battles!

Turrets have a 360 deg arc of fire unless you have suffered ‘turret jam’ which locks the turret in to a fixed arc.

[quote] Turret-mounted weapons. Weapons mounted on turrets can usually fire all around (i.e. into any arc). Some turret-mounted weapons have restricted arcs because of the design or  position of the turret, and these cases are…[Read more]

Each platoon must have a junior field officer (lieutant) and can have a senior field officer (captain or Major)…. yes this means you could have 2 majors in 2 platoons…. :

Its only the characters who are limited to 1 per army (and they are all in the top secret call out boxes and are opponents consent)

If you look at most of the Napoleonic army lists they dont have howitzer entries so I would say they are factored in &  the 2-2-2 is for a full howitzer battery only

Yeah WL could do with a proof reader who plays the games!… And all 3 books could do with a V2 revamp with some more consistancy across all of them (why is it -8 points to down grade in Clash but half points in AT 1&2?) why do horse artillery go from being light smothbore guns in AT1 to being just smoothbore artillery in AT2? etc etc

The blurb /writting about deploying as half batterys is the background /historical reasoning behind being able to take half batterys in your list.

The half battery option is for downgrading the unit when you purchase them, ie you are buying a small battery instead of a normal sized one.  (which is why in CofE lists they are written as ‘downgrade…[Read more]

Yes  is would be option B….. if you rolled 4,1,1, then it could be B or A (depending on how you read the massive damage paragraph!).   If you rolled a 1 for the pen hit & then a 4 +1  it would be forced disembarked with 2 PINs

Hi Bill,

As the tailed plan is made disadvantaged (and not just counted as being disadvantaged) at the end of the attackers movement step, they then get to make their ‘defensive tactics’ move.  When the next step of the activation comes round (the pilot action) the defender is still  disadvantaged….the benifet of the card its to make the shot a…[Read more]

no you havent got wrong… its 1 pin per firing unit…. unless the firing unit has HE or a flamethrower in which case those pins will take precidence.

ie 5 rifles will be 1 pin

5 rifles and a rifle grenade will be D2 pins

5 rifles and a flamethrower will be D6+1 pins

picture attached… cant quote page number as I’m looking at an ebook version… but it says roll once, apply then roll again (unless the vehicle is destroyed by the first result, of course)

Ok the same paragraph then goes on to look like its contradicting its self by saying roll two dice and apply both results…….can we get some proof readers…[Read more]

1) Each brigade needs to have an individual commander

2) As you pointed out there are options within V2 for your General to be just another Brigade commander – just with the posiblity of being a higher staff rateing -note how prussians cant have a SR 7 brigade commander….

3)As per the  BPv2 General Viarent  you mentioned (warrior General pg 1…[Read more]

@stuart – its in the massive damage rules… ok I’ve paraphrased it as I typed that from memory 🙁  how ever as I said in #179522 you cant have a rule that says roll 2 damage and apply both unles the 1st is destroyed and then have another one that says roll X damage and apply all of them because the X damage came from 2 separte weapons

Also -…[Read more]
