I find all the various makes of paint alright to use. i use a paint brush, everybody has their own idea as to what the exact colour of British Olive Drab should be. I would go for Humbrol 155, but then I tend to give the vehicle a dark wash, highlight, dry brushing of dust and mud, so at the end of the day it could be any base colour. Thank…[Read more]

I’ve noticed the MP 38 in the Afrika Korp plastics is smaller than the one on the new Veterans sprue. And yet the Veterans MG 34 drum magazine carrier is smaller than the one in the Winter German sprue.  No more just grabbing bits from the parts box without checking . Reminds me of 1/35 scale modelling back in the late 70s , lots of variation in…[Read more]

The topic with V3 starts with the rulebook itself. It is not possible for 80% to fully understand the rules if WL itself explains the rules incorrectly.

Example:
Page 96, diagram14

This diagram is shown incorrectly and the funniest and stupidest thing is that it was shown correctly in V2.
So they deliberately changed a picture, which is now…[Read more]

I use Vallejo and AK 3rd Gen with a brush and Vallejo Air and Tamiya with my airbrush.

… TBH I’d settle for getting a pickup gamer (or two) to proof read they systems rulebooks before printing!

Now you’ll never please 100% of people 100% of the time… [game companies tend to aim for 80% of readers understanding the book  if I remember correctly(!)…] and disgruntled people tend to be louder than happy people…but even the…[Read more]

The only thing I’m going to say is….

I’ve said it multiple times that WL dropped the ball MASSIVELY with v3… I’m waiting to see how the armies of X books work against each other before looking again at alternatives!

It’s not about balance. This is lazy gameplay writing.
I invest money and time in a model and then it gets destroyed because of a random dice result because it just drives away?

You give the player the opportunity to use more vehicles. Then you weaken them with FUBAR, failed order tests and this ridiculous MG rule.

At the same time, you make all…[Read more]

I understand what you mean, but then you can’t charge money for it. I would accept that for a free PDF and a first edition, but the rulebook itself is full of errors. Diagrams are wrong, cross-references are wrong and some rule explanations that were still there in the second edition are missing.

The promise was that nothing would be changed that…[Read more]

What you are basically saying (and I agree with you to a point here by the way!) is that certain motorcycle squads should have an additional option to buy sidecars for the LMG which would give the LMG flack and count as a vehicle for firing purposes instead of infantry.  BUT this would have to come with some caveats for the tournament side of the…[Read more]

I realise that the game is not historically accurate. But it should at least follow a certain logic in the game itself. Then a motorbike with an MG costs 10 points more and the issue is settled.

It seems to me as if all these rule changes were decided completely at random without even thinking about whether they make sense.
