Re: Coastal Patrol ship data

We use the 1:300 Cruel Seas vessels and a 6' x 4' table. Seems to work ok.

Re: Coastal Patrol ship data

There are one or two on here who appear to have slipped through the net!!!

Re: Citadel the Breakthrough campaign on YouTubes

Something that you may have overlooked (easily done when you play solo) is that the JL/tank commander has TWO command initiatives; this means that he can activate the flamethrower AND one of the machine guns*, which would have given you another six dice of firing against those pesky Commies. [* Or t...

Re: Sharp Practice on the Cape Frontier - new book

Baron, I would (of course) prefer F&F on Paypal (we’re all friends here after all, surely), but I appreciate that some people might prefer the security of commercial - but would appreciate them paying a little bit extra for that ‘insurance’, but I’m not making that a condition of payment. Like ...

Re: Sharp Practice on the Cape Frontier - new book

Yes, well done - even for anyone not interested in this fascinating period of military history, I would imagine it provides an excellent template for numerous similar campaigns elsewhere in the world.

Just to be clear, is that PayPal F&F or commercial?

Re: Teams in WWI CoC

Historically, they just didn't; remember that these tactics were in their infancy and had not yet evolved to the level they were at in WW2. However, you can still utilise the "team" definition for virtually all "heavy" and exceptional weapons - eg H/MMGs, minenwerfers/granatenwer...

Re: Coastal Patrol ship data

That is indeed very sad. I never actually met Jim, but love those rules and will try and play a couple of games with them in his honour later this month.

Re: Nassau Regt (grenadiers), Chevauxlegers and Artillery

I was aware of the plethora of leaders, but will have multiple "left over" figures with all sorts of potential! I did say that the forces would be subject to any pre-set points limits (and the normal "balancing act" for one-off games), so it is unlikely that the entire "boar...

Nassau Regt (grenadiers), Chevauxlegers and Artillery

I'm contemplating a dual-purpose Nassau SP2 force to cover the period 1809-13, composed of grenadiers - drawn from the combined grenadier companies of both battalions of either the 1st or the 2nd Regiments, according to the scenario - plus a contingent from the squadron of Light Horse (Jager zu Pfer...
