The one thing that concerns me about the close combat in Black Powder, is the follow up a retiring enemy. I would prefer close combat to be short and  therefore would prefer follow ups to be restricted to Sweeping Advance/Charge.

Have you tried the UPS tracking option?   You should have got the code with sending confirmation. Warlord have just the same you have there, so no answer may be because they could just answer: No idea.

…. ok guns…..after multiple discussions (including with people who are listed as the naval boffins & the author himself) on social media platforms…. how I wish this info had been inclued in the book!

Guess 1:  you probably got sent an email from them which you need to click to confirm (email might be in your junk box)

But with regard to your original question there has never been any discussion of having an additional morale save factor for squares. The break test rule for squares is a big…[Read more]

Base rims…either do a colour band for squads or do something on the bases themselves

Here they are the MTB & Subs 101’s initial versions…..

I based my model on Jaguar 1944. In 39 the five Raubtiere formed the 6. Flottille. They laid mines in North Sea and checked merchant traffic  to neutral countries. In December Jaguar and Seeadler took 6 prizes. In 1940 Jaguar took part in more mining missions or was part of escort  for larger warships or minelayers. In time of Weserübung Norway op…[Read more]
