Looks good dude!  Here is a wrecked P51 I made by beating up a model kit then molding the ground beneath it.

Legere, that is correct. The rulebook has a couple of diagrams showing the situation and states that maximising frontage means that you cannot avoid contacting two units when one is a single model artillery piece alongside an infantry unit. However, increasing the artillery frontage and means that the you are unlikely to contact both the artillery…[Read more]

Big Al’s post said “Further, the increased unit frontage (and this is why I think players like it) means that there is less chance of bringing a second unit into the fight when they charge the artillery.

Yes, as there is no stated exclusion from the rule for being in reserve, and the roll to come in from reserve is an order test – the only exclusions are being below maximum allowable strength (either didn’t take all the optional extra men or have taken a casualty) or having a maximum allowable strength less than 10 men.

If both players have them, I guess roll off to see who goes first, then alternate.
