In the QSRs, nope those points are from the callout box on page 6 …

yeah I feel that it’s currently pointless…

cool…

should be collecting my 5th & 6th Mogamis on friday so over the weekend I can convert one up to be the ’43 refit mogami!  (swapping the US half of my starter for the japanese half from the US player at my local club)

1) large silhouette is if you are in the port or starbord arcs of the target… doesnt matter if its a destroyer or battleship

It is the largest part of the shilhouette in relation to the ship its self…

2) yep… if its over 30″ then its over horizion shootings – which is its own call out box (QSR pg 6) &  is all of

i) over 30″ but still…[Read more]

To be fair we normally do a charge order and then a supporting move order for the other units.

Dont really have a favorite list… but I do have a core that I find hard not to take…

1 x snr (1st) Lt

2 x 11 man guards with 2 LMGs + 1 Pzf

1 x Zis3 AT gun

2 x AT Rifle teams

1 x 12 man inexp rifle squad with AT grenades (these guys are free!)

… I find it hard not to take my MMG team with gunshield… rearly kills much but does upset…[Read more]

general rule of thumb for a 4 x 6′ board at the club where I play is make a board that looks like a land mark that would be fought over… be it cross roads, a small village with a church, a river crossing etc

to do that you’ll want 7′ of river with at least 1 bridge and 2 crossings (you want a couple of bends in the river)

about the same in…[Read more]

No because thats two separte orders…. 1 is a charge & the other is a move

just the bridge.. the relavent part is page 3 where it talks about the bridge being the location of the ship

Hi Frank,

I’ve put the wardroom FAQ up in its own thread which covers a number of questions… but I’ll stress most are unoffical!!!

However to answer what you’ve asked

Tough – yes local 1 = impossible to shoot down a tough plane… however DP guns can! (the FAQ has a complete breakdown of how AA works)

Carrier points – yes at the moment..…[Read more]

Didnt think artillery could counted as a small team?

but like Master Cheif I hadnt noticed the cost differene…. I dont own any of the small AT guns, prefer to take Zis3s for my artillery

@Master Chief – the M3 Scout car has the option of taking 4 pintel mount HMGs with have limited fire acrs in game … off top of my head front + left, front + right, rear + left, rear + right

@Thomas – the HMGs are on the corners of the transport area and whilst theoritically alble to fire accross the loading bay its not that practicle

The change in currancy acceptance and the related exchange rate may not be warlord, but rather the bank that provides the payment portal..

espically as its now been updated to accept applepay & googlepay

I stress may.. .because I dont know which system they use to provide the payment portal

@enioch – so you agree with my reading.. thats good!

@d.giessmann – the Val & Kate are in the main rulebook from what I hear 🙂 …theres over 40 pages per nation!… most of the mongoose v2 beta is included…

also some of the US distributors are putting the Sub & MTB boxes up for pre-order … so hopefully we’ll see them at the same time as…[Read more]

British & Canadian beaches at DDay campaign book..

Was supposed to be released about now..but I think/seen to recall seeing somewhere that January is the new release date

No idea if it’s going to have models released..the latest Pacific books haven’t

So your saying ignore the dogfight completely?

Note I’m not talking tactics about if you should engage the attacking bomber flight or not ….purely what would happen if you did

So a little of history mixed with a bit of game play… using tank veterancy rules as a base idea…here is Nats idea! ™ :p

Tiger fear : 1943 onwards.  All German tanks with an armour value of 8+

If an activating unit can draw LoS to a unit with this rule it must take an order check or change its order to down or run, and must end its…[Read more]

So define intresting….

looks / modeling – you’ve got the IFF  late 1944, so you can do a mix of free french in US & British uniforms with US armour + resistance fighters (with IFF arm bands) & supporting SAS / para’s /rangers

You’ve got British /Free french/dutch/norwegian etc commandos

LRDG (long range desert group) for that raiders with…[Read more]

I think they should take a leaf out of the Victory at sea book…where you set a year for your game..

that way you can put tiger fear as a national rule instead of a vehicle rule – ie 1944 & 1945 applys to all medium and heavy tanks

just an idea for v3….:p

The crew of a transport can use 1 weapon per order…any others need to be used by the tranported squads (note if the squad cant shoot such as medics then they cant use the transports weapons).

It doesnt matter which weapon the tranport crew use… and can change between orders..

If the weapon is attached to the vehicle then its left with the…[Read more]
