Generally no unless you’re using the optional rules in Appendix II, p215.  The main thing to consider when proposing this is interaction of national rules, particularly rules which affect the whole game not just individual units.

Even that is intended for multi player games, not for a single force.  There are a couple of specific s…[Read more]

I think its more that they are Roman Heavy cavalry, but in rules they are only classified as medium so as not to put them level with true heavy cavalry such as Cataphracts or plate armoured knights.

Oh yeah there is something in Campaign: The Western Desert in the section DESERT COMBAT SPECIAL RULES.

The following rules apply to a hull down vehicle:

• There is a -2 modifier to all shots against the vehicle from the front arc, including indirect fire. • If a vehicle has a turret, then only turret-mounted weapons may fire.
• A turre…[Read more]

Sounds like a variation of the Hull Down rules from Western Desert, p161-162.

If the vehicle has a turret, only turret mounted weapons can fire.  If turretless, you may choose one weapon to fire.

I haven’t bought into Achtung Panzer so can’t comment if it’s from there.  Another possibility would be a rule we haven’t seen yet from V3 – where d…[Read more]

You are correct, it’s in one of the North Africa books for the desert warfare.

I think this might be the wrong forum. Sounds like Achtung Panzer or something?

Given no exceptional damage, I wonder how they  are going to allow a chance of taking a leader out for non-snipers. It is going to be comical if a HE burst always just leaves the leader and special weapons men standing there (and, yes, I know in 3E that of the others automatically finds that LMG and prises from the burned body of his dead…[Read more]

“not all snipers have the TEAM rule” – not a change.  Polish marksman and Japanese lone sniper (unless he takes LMG option) come to mind as current examples of one man sniper units that don’t suffer the Team rule.

Yes, more streamlining… lol

Snipers: – +1 to hit
same 12-36″ range on a fire! or Ambush order
ignore cover saves
+1 to wound infantry /artillery crew
can pick out officers / unit leaders
not all snipers have the TEAM rule
snipers are the unit leader

-1 for loss of loader still around
if unit leader dies, loaders can pickup the weapon

Stuart,

Many thanks

Stuart, thanks

Going to make some (educated*) guess, but theres a lot of overheads that a UK company will have to pay for sending goods outside of the UK- so they spread the costs over all the individual items….

These overheads include

Import /export taxes – even to & from the EU now!
Exchange rate at the time the prices are set – if the Pound is weak…[Read more]
