Nat replied to the topic Ships not in the Fleet List in the forum Victory At Sea 1 year, 4 months ago
Note – I’m not 100% sold on the Black Swann starting with Radar, Sub Hunter & being Agile….
I’d need more data on what was installed… and the shape of the ships hull… however as a rough draft that seems about right and fits with the official ships whilest being different enough to warrant its own stat line.

I got the same since quite some time.
I assume that it was some spammed messages.

warlords scale is bespoke… but apparently they work ok with/ against 15mm force
If you google it you’ll see some comparision pictures of different sizes.
As to official… well we’ve got the Prussians, but apart from that we’ve not heard or seen anything (doesnt mean a lot with Warlord as they do like to spring pre-orders of things with no…[Read more]

Charge The Guns replied to the topic Not clear target and Home Home in the forum Pike & Shotte 1 year, 4 months ago
Hi Matt,
For the cover issue, we play that troops in cover count as not clear. I think it’s an omission. If you don’t use this then troops in cover do still get an improved save. It comes down to how much benefit you think troops in cover should get.
On ‘Home Home’ I think the whole battalia, as this seems in the spirit of the wording and is simpler.

Koin-Koin replied to the topic Vallejo Primer Spray Paint in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 4 months ago
I don’t use spray anymore as I invested in an aerograph to get rid of them (I live in an appartement) but I mostly use Vallejo product including their primers.
If you need a comparison, I’d say they’re similar to the army painter range : great priming surface, 100% colour match to the bottle ref.
So yes you can use their spray range to prime and…[Read more]

Garry Wills replied to the topic Must Form Square in the forum Black Powder 1 year, 4 months ago
As Big Al has said elsewhere the rules do not exclude more than one charge response. So in this case I would say that closing fire is allowed. The rider being that a unit can only give closing fire once per move (p.54).

Charge The Guns replied to the topic Epic Pike & Shotte, question about figures in the forum Pike & Shotte 1 year, 4 months ago
Hi Matt – I suggest you check out ‘Millers Miniatures’ YouTube channel and his latest video in which he reviews the actual sprues. There are some nice single firing musketeers on the cavalry sprue. He also compares the figures to Steel Fist Miniatures 15mm line and they look spot on to me.

Nat replied to the topic no lmgs in folgore in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 4 months ago
Intresting… (just doing a bit of reading up) Folgore was a single poorly equiped division (& was destroyed in the 2nd battle of El Alamein (the one british history remembers, but doesnt remember the Italins in it!).
So the Western Desert book having them without LMGs, but SMGs to make up for it is possible

Charge The Guns replied to the topic Epic Pike & Shotte, question about figures in the forum Pike & Shotte 1 year, 4 months ago
Hi Matt, I think the pose is a limitation of the strip approach and the moulding process. The pikemen ‘at porte’ with the pikes forward are sideways on the sprue (pics of the sprues on the Warlord site). There are individual musketeers firing on the cavalry sprue to use as dismounted dragoons, commanded shot etc. To get a strip of figure…[Read more]

SteveT replied to the topic no lmgs in folgore in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 4 months ago
Yes, exactly what Nat was saying. Do not expect consistency or fine-tuned balanced in some of the campaign books, as they were often design as stand alone experiences.
It could also simply be they missed the LMG line in Western Desert, but it has not yet been picked up in Errata. It is very odd that an infantry unit not to have that, unless t…[Read more]

Nat replied to the topic Its So Difficult to Hit in the forum Blood Red Skies 1 year, 5 months ago
Dont forget that if you hit the opponent takes a boom chit… boom chits win games not shooting down planes (although that helps :p)
EG you hit, opponent takes a boom chit they then try and save the damage (lose of advantage level)… when boom chits = planes +1 then they run away.
