Hi Mike,

Confused – absolutely!

The Grenadiers and the square are on the same side. The Grenadiers wanted to charge in order to prevent the Grenz column attacking the square.

If the simple answer is that being in proximity range of an enemy only restricts you to moving forward in your front quarter or backwards in your rear quarter then the…[Read more]

The proximity rule is straightforward, the French grenadiers need to move into either their forward or rearward quarter (see p.24), the number and position of the Austrians doesn’t matter other than them being within 12 inches. The key point in this example, is that the grenadiers would have to charge the Jagers,  (you cannot contact them without…[Read more]

I think you are confused regarding the Proximity rule.

1) you can make any move in your front quarter you choose.  As lo…[Read more]

Turned out to be academic. Out of 40 bombing dice rolled, only 3 6s came up, and not two at the same time.

My take on this would be:

– strafing: hit only

– bombing: hit and critical

Hmm, now we are promised some more models.  But, why Drache?   In the 13 months with helicopter test service it did not much, some minelaying actions.

Hi Ed,

Changing depth doesnt take up an flank speed movement, just the opotunity to issue an order.

Dont forget that subs have a 50/50 chance to go from surfaced to submerged just because another ship has got to close.

If you look in the News from the Wardroom thread I’ve put up 101 guides to subs, mtbs & flights as well as a 1 page cheat sheet.
