No its not different, its repeated because of the torpedo fan rule on the same page which uses up a load. (& yes I agree there’s no need for it to be there)

The answer I got was the studio are talking with the author and writting an offical FAQ……I’m not expecting a direct response as I also put in all the outstanding questions the Facebook group (Victory at Sea Wardroom) had from the 2 player set. It was quite an extensive list so I’m not expecting the FAQ quickly.

In the QSR* page 22 is talking about Scouting in general.  So page 12 says that if you allocate the ship (Cruisers or Destroyer only) to scouting then you gain a +1 to your dice to see if you get a scout point.  Normally this would be a 5+ (the general rule on page 22) but Radar makes it a 4+, and if you dont get it then you can re-roll that d…[Read more]

Torpedoes use all the mods.

Yes that means torpedoes at long range will only hit if you are in the targets port or starboard arc.  However if you are playing with costal terrain you can have a ship runaground (stationary +1).  So in theory a torpedo at point blank range can in the right cirumstances hit a ship on a D6 roll of a 1!  (1 + large sh…[Read more]

I have summited a list of questions which are being looked at by the studio team… one of the points is the points imbalance across the board.

For what its worth I have worked out that the points are actually calculated individually then rounded to the the closest 5 or 10 points for list purchase price.

Look at something like ‘really useful storage boxes’ then glue a magnetic strip to the bottom of the box and a stip magnet to the bottom of the models.

or a company like justlasered .co.uk who do cut foam inserts for army cases.

The idea behind the big S-Boot was foolish from start. A 1935 Torpedoboot costed as much as 4 S-Boote and needed the crew of 5. It had 6 Torpedoes and no reloads, the 4 S-Boote of same price had 8 tubes  and 8 more torpedoes that could be reloaded for action before leaving the operational area. The four could carry instead of spare torpedoes…[Read more]

Thinking of it maybe the US will get wildcats, Devastators & either a B17 or a Catalina (for midway battles – so they have carrier aircraft before 44 :p )

They hit to board edge and travel 0″, they dont slide along the edge

The rules are not esp against   digging in edge of woods as add on to cover.  So many use it. Its a game.

In real life seeking cover in woods is a  recruits mistake.  It helps a bit against bullets but anything exploding at the trees produce an extra lethal rain of wood splinters.    And easy to hit.    That “A bridge to far AT ambush on…[Read more]

Nottingham,UK has been in lockdown since effectively December if not a bit earlier.  This limits the number of staff a company can have in and working.  Now the factory where I work only has 2/3rds of its staff in and we have more space per staff member due to what me make.   This means that warlord would at a guess have a production shortful of…[Read more]

Well written and nice pics.

The fighting in the last WW I weeks was as deadly as the trench war- In my collection is the sword of a 2nd LT  kia three weeks before armistice in following the retreating German army.

The rearguards came from the best German units.

perry metal command advancing might fit what you’re looking for… (same size as warlords)

there’s also Elite miniatures (no idea what these look like compared to warlord), essex (smaller in scale), warfoundry (smaller in scale) & Vitrix (slightly bigger models)

I’m guessing that due to the delays in shipping the Italians (pushed back 2 months now), and they are gearing up for general release of the BP 6mm American Civil War models, they are holding off until they can actually manufacture them.

 Träger B (Peter Strasser), Weser (Carrier on Hipper-class), – no stats for these……

Can confirm that the stats of over 200 ships are in the rulebook….

I doubt very much that warlord will sell the cards separate from the models…. they dont for other systems where there are competing manufactors

Nice battle report.      That the Granatwerfer 16 did little damage………

More please.

It’s a nice fun option.

And a good option to take pics of miniatures. 😉
