Seems the rule is not mich used????

I got questions about the gun in background. It’s a 21 cm Mörser 18, the main heavy gun of Wehrmacht. More than 700 made and in front use.

.

The metal model is from a German maker.  Some 30+ years old and very rare today.  It was long on my wishing list. The maker only delivered it assembled and so th…[Read more]

Hmm but what if the arc covers 2 sides?

Cheers

I think just some general issues with the website – just try again.

Its difficult lately with reduced staff because of COVID19.

I have approved it, the system treated the link as spam.

Sorry about this.

you hit the side you are in the arc of even if you cant see that side … see the rule book for concealment of vehicles where it talks about not being able to see the front of a tank but work out the shot V the front

Casment weapons… basically they fire like fixed weapons so a 90deg arc

re the whole dry land or dead thing… 1 thing i’ve learned about house rules is they need to be concise and flow & also on this forum I try and make generic suggestions as I dont know your terrain :p

I mean the river could be all imparsable to infantry or the 2″ closesest to a bank could be difficult terrain etc etc

Well, hmmmm.  The problem is Action dress. The slung pelisse cave some protection against sword cuts as did the busby and Tschako.

So many Hussars came to the dance without but put them on directly before action.

But doing the classic  hussar work – scouting?   Riding for hours in heat and dust?

More Questions –

I know its been asked before, but not answered…. so here’s the question again.

When shooting at ships do Shin’yo rockets suffer -3 to hit or -4? 

‘normal’ rockets suffer -1 when shooting at land targets & -2 when shooting as naval targets, so with the wording of shin-yo’s suffering -3 instead of the normal -1 do they suffer…[Read more]

PM sent. 😉

Yes,  the original Light Dragoons had Hussar Dress in Peninsula. Before there was a slow Change from light draggon Dress in 1st and 2nd.    The 3rd Regiment was the first to appear completely in hussar fashion, as its colonel Johann Georg v. Reden procured fur to add to the pelisse, introduced the fur cap and allowed the wearing of…[Read more]

Presumably you are talking about Clash of Eagles; these companies are 3pdr guns with a range of just 24 inches which is worth 8 points, the close combat is 1 point, the morale 6 points and the stamina 4 points. The text also says that the shooting stats would be 2/2/1 rather than 3/2/1. This is also for 6 guns – a 2 gun section would be different.

To be honest, I’m going to pick up the supplement Close Quarters which has some cleanup of the rules for aircraft in it.

Your opponent might already now about it due to the radar rules.  It says at the start of the turn… so I read that as the plane activates before any activation die are pulled from the bag.

re flak – i read it as per…[Read more]

Another couple of options are….ps some shocking idesa here….

play some of the campaign scenarios/ randimise which mission you do play

Play lopsided battles – ie you have 1K + a king tiger, they have a normal 1K army.

Play tank war /armoured platoons

play larger point games where multiple units are activated under a single order die

play…[Read more]

I thought they were light dragoons and became hussars later. In which case, they wouldn’t have peilises. Becoming hussars was a fashion thing, so possibly had them because they liked to strut and show off.

Really IO is your man for this.

Yeah I read that as a statement of an idea not a ‘heres a scenario we’ve written’ as well…..
