Hi Steve.
Alessio says this is a hold over from 1st edition back when flame throwers hit automatically.
“I will errata it, stating that it just needs to be in range, regardless of whether it hits the squad or not.”Guess this means Flamethrowers just got a bit more lethal when clearing buildings.
I hope this helps and have a nice day.…[Read more]

Hello,
I fought a 2nd battle this week. The report can be found on my blog at:
https://thetinsoldierguy.blogspot.com/2021/03/black-powder-rules-battle-report-1.html
I called my battle “The Battle of Many Mistakes” because I sure made a lot of them. Not upset though. These are test games to learn. I plan to take my game to school this week to…[Read more]

The Austrian Landwehr Jäger are of similar quality to the Prussian Freiwillige Jäger. Similar background, being middle class volunteers. Including some Jewish officers and men.
The ordinary Landwehr was brave but long not trusted by the authorities. They feared insurrection.But 1809 the Landwehr did a good show. Good enough that Napoleon dem…[Read more]

At the risky of being inflammatory (pun intended) ….
Reply from Warlord:
HI Steve.Thanks for getting in touch.
As far as I am aware the fire check would only be on a hit, but I am going to pass this onto Alessio for confirmation.
I hope this helps and have a nice day.
Kind regards,
Max

Hi Archie – great to hear that there are some stats in Clash. I don’t know much about the Austrian Landwehr, but I’d guess they were worse than the line. In the Prussian army the Landwehr were fairly efficient by 1815, and I don’t know if the Austrian Landwehr reached this level. Perhaps IO has some more info?

“Professional Carriers” ? They are not better. I’m still waiting for a book sent by Warlord via UPS to Germany. In January!
UPS gives daily new notes. In depot, at custom, left cutoms, in depot, on transport , at customs……… Like an ape hitting buttons . I got so many delivery dates……. Like the Allies post Arnhem it does not mo…[Read more]

Already sending photos to Warlord per their request.
Even without seeing the photos they are blaming the shipper.
If indeed the shipper rough handled the box, which there is no evidence of, its perfect and has not been opened re-sealed, the fact the one small “brigade box” which had no shrink wrap , while the other one did, would not have…[Read more]

George,
Since this was likely Warlords fault and not the shipping company, it won’t make any difference.
I do not believe customs did it, as the box does not seemed to be resealed.

Thanks Big Al but back to you said. What is the uphill advantage? I’m not reading it in the BP 2nd Ed. rules.

I’m American, too. I’m wondering if we can request, if on is willing to pay for it, for a professional carrier such as DHL, UPS, or FedEx to deliver packages?

VinUnleaded replied to the topic Warlord Games a DISGRACE: Epic Battles ACW Pre-order received in the forum General Discussion 3 years, 3 months ago
Hi,
I am in the USA, and the package went thru customs at Los Angeles California (Californication).
However, the outbox was flawless, something I would not expect if the same people trashed the inside.
Its possible though.
Regardless of the reason, I am no longer going to order directly from them.
Instead I will wait for my online game shop…[Read more]

Wow. I’m sorry that happened to your order. Just thinking this through a little though. Are you in England? If not, did your package go through customs and get inspected? I’ve gotten packages opened before and resealed by customs.

VinUnleaded replied to the topic acw epic delivery in the forum General Discussion 3 years, 3 months ago
Mine was a mess.
NOTE the outer shipping box was 100% sealed, with NO damage at all.
Here is the list of issues the packer “Ana” (2 of her packing cards were enclosed) caused:
1) The main box was not shrink wrapped and had already been opened.
2) One of the two brigade boxes had no shrink wrap, was partially crushed and ripped along its edge, wit…[Read more] -

What a mess, how can the person at Warlord games even place their 2 cards with their names in the box as the person who packed and picked my order with this kind of disgrace and lack of caring?!?!?

Just to add
4) building are hard to bring down with canon balls… not the sort of thing that could be done in a short space of time (even a couple of hours). Look at some of the building still standing that where under fire during that time period.
Also buildings are abstract, its very hard to find a single building big enough for 700+ men to f…[Read more] -

Big Al, you say “There is an uphill advantage during combat which you lose if you are pushed back.” I’m going into the rules trying to find that uphill advantage. I can’t find it. What is that advantage?
