L.T. Russell started the topic Hauptmann Heinrich Gross in the forum Konflikt '47 3 years ago

Has anyone else tried using this unit? I did and to me it’s got major problems. Because it’s 5 men you lose the small unit defense. The sniper can’t forward deploy/set up. Only Hauptmann Gross has Fast, so how exactly does this unit move together? How do you determine if Hauptmann Gross kills an enemy in hand-to-hand combat, if he’s part of t…[Read more]

Howdy Stuart! Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner, but I prepared a big, long reply and something went wrong. Either I posted it wrong or it was deleted, but that really bummed me out….

I did some research on the Bren and apparently the 100 round drum was only meant for anti-aircraft fire, using the extended AA sights, because the big d…[Read more]

L.T. Russell replied to the topic converted Beutepanzer Sherman or t34 equipped with schwerefeld projektor? in the forum Konflikt '47 3 years ago

I don’t see any reason why not. The WWII Germans are basically famous for using every bit of captured enemy gear they could get their hands on. I’ve picked up some Ursus infantry that I intend to dress and equip as captured by the Germans….

L.T. Russell replied to the topic My personal hope in the forum Konflikt '47 3 years ago

I’m gonna disagree IndisiciveAmerican75. I think there needs to be differences between the Axis and the Allies. There are not that many Axis units with Fanatics or Horror and the abilities of the US Paragon units and some of the Allied special forces units address some of this….

Perhaps another expansion or K47 2.0 can come up with some v…[Read more]

White Knight Games & Hobbies in Helena, Montana. Plenty of Konflikt 47 players available. The Warlord Games faction meets on Wednesday evenings. We just finished a K47 league….

IIRC, there are now rules for this in Konflikt 47, in the Defiance expansion….

L.T. Russell replied to the topic Community Introductions in the forum General Discussion 3 years ago

Howdy y’all! L.T. Russell here, initials not rank. I’m in Helena, Montana, by way of El Paso, Texas, originally from Herndon, Virginia. I’m an old, retired guy. Been gaming since my older cousin was taking me to the Wargaming Club at Indiana University, back in the 70s. The good folks up here at White Knight Games & Hobbies got me back into…[Read more]

L.T. Russell replied to the topic What's you favorite tech infantry ? in the forum Konflikt '47 3 years ago

I play Germans and I’ve always gotta have a squad of Nachtalben. I make sure to add an extra guy or two to the squad to take advantage of Fatherland Resurgent and I load them up with panzerfausts and AT grenades. Their Elite ability can be a game changer and Fast, Behind Enemy Lines, Tough and IR Vision are all useful….

Howdy Stuart! Thanks for your thoughtful reply. I concede mosta your points about Bren vs. BAR. It was Pete Kokalis’ writings that first made me aware of the quick-change barrel on the Bren and the value of the top feed receiver. As a former M60 machinegunner, I will continue to quibble about the sustained firepower of multiple linked bel…[Read more]

Howdy! New to the forums….

IDK if these topics have been addressed already, if so, I apologize.

Shotguns; Last I’ve seen in Bolt Action, shotguns have a range of 18 inches. IMHO, in a system where pistols shoot 6 inches, submachineguns 12 inches, assault rifles 18 inches and rifles 24 inches, this is ludicrous. Military shotguns tend to be…[Read more]
