I hear you, but I still worry about unit costs, even in scenarios that I’m designing.

“metagaming”?

We have some highly-ranked tournament players in our group, but I’ve got no interest there either.  I will act as a sparring partner though, just ’cause I like to play….

Yeah, I hear you.  Much as I wanna support Warlord Games and local game stores, I find myself haunting Ebay, looking for a bargain….

Yeah, a tour of Bovington is definitely on the Bucket List for me.  I’d LOVE to see Tiger Day and feel/see the Tiger drive by….

Howdy folks!  I game with a group at White Knight Games & Hobbies, in Helena, Montana.  The Warlord Games gaming group meets every Wednesday evening around 6pm.  Games can also be set up for almost any time the store is open, we usually play longer-running games on the weekend….

Howdy again Stuart!  My continuing thanks for your patient and informed replies.  I agree with your point; “…benefit significantly from being crew served and were employed as light machine guns by their respective armies…”, however I’ll continue to quibble that they’re not much better than having a BAR with a loader, as opposed to being a…[Read more]

Thanks for your reply Nat!  I’m gonna run your idea and Hellraiser 7’s by my group.  Makes sense to me….

Howdy Luke!  I imagine you could use the Schreckwulfen rules for Frau Growler’s werewolf….

Hmm, a “Vampress squad”….how about something like; an enemy unit that fails a morale check during an assault is “Enthralled” into close combat with the Vampress unit, INSTEAD of being able to shoot at them.   Give them Fast, Tooth and Claw, and St…[Read more]

THANKS for your reply, Attention Span Labs!  I like the idea of rolling a separate colored die for Hauptmann Gross.  I hadn’t thought of that….

Do you see my overall point though; that the Hauptmann Gross unit is expensive, while losing several of the capabilities of of the intrinsic sub units?  IMO, the unit is not as well thought out as th…[Read more]

I’m with you Herr Oberst.  IMO, dropping to 15mm would lose the individual figure’s detail that I find part of the fun of Konflikt 47….

“…the complicated and varied British Commonwealth rules…”  They’re referred to as “The Cheaty British” by the group I play Bolt Action/Konflikt 47 with.  The folks planning on going to Las Vegas next year have been discussing running “Cheaty British” armies, I believe it’s the Indians?  You start with a free squad AND a free artillery ob…[Read more]

I was just playing tonight and I had a Jagdpanzer IV shooting at a halftrack and a Down enemy squad in between gave the halftrack soft cover.  It’s an accepted house rule of the more experienced players in our group.  I think it’s ridiculous….

Howdy Stuart!  Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner, but I prepared a big, long reply and something went wrong.  Either I posted it wrong or it was deleted, but that really bummed me out….

I did some research on the Bren and apparently the 100 round drum was only meant for anti-aircraft fire, using the extended AA sights, because the big d…[Read more]

I don’t see any reason why not.  The WWII Germans are basically famous for using every bit of captured enemy gear they could get their hands on.  I’ve picked up some Ursus infantry that I intend to dress and equip as captured by the Germans….

I’m gonna disagree IndisiciveAmerican75.  I think there needs to be differences between the Axis and the Allies.  There are not that many Axis units with Fanatics or Horror and the abilities of the US Paragon units and some of the Allied special forces units address some of this….

Perhaps another expansion or K47 2.0 can come up with some v…[Read more]

White Knight Games & Hobbies in Helena, Montana.  Plenty of Konflikt 47 players available.  The Warlord Games faction meets on Wednesday evenings.  We just finished a K47 league….

IIRC, there are now rules for this in Konflikt 47, in the Defiance expansion….

Howdy y’all!  L.T. Russell here, initials not rank.  I’m in Helena, Montana, by way of El Paso, Texas, originally from Herndon, Virginia.  I’m an old, retired guy.  Been gaming since my older cousin was taking me to the Wargaming Club at Indiana University, back in the 70s.  The good folks up here at White Knight Games & Hobbies got me back into…[Read more]
