Too Fat Lardies

Today, my solo game was a 'What a Tanker' game, which I haven't played in what seems forever! It was a lot of fun!

Hi again, our club reopened about 3 weeks ago, and we have a few restrictions to follow... No Kitchen (we meet in a church hall) Social spacing as far as is possible.(Good job we have a table between us)! ...and that is about it! One or two of our members are still isolating due to medical reasons, ...

Thanks Carl!

Actually, I used my own rules for solo play, and my own Arab-Israeli Tanker supplement, both free to download from my club website https://herkybird.tynesidewargames.co.uk/misc.html

Today, we had a couple of games of What a Tanker at our club. The first using my AI Tanker supplement, and the second a straight game. The write ups are on my blog at this link https://herkybird-richardbradley.blogspot.com/2020/08/the-egyptian-front.html https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9nWjvYyRejQ/X0GIVh...

PS: the link to the rules is https://herkybird.tynesidewargames.co.uk/misc.html

The previous post wouldn't allow me to add it saying 'The maximum number of URL's allowed is 2' - I could only see one!

Hi all,

Just to let you know the Arab Israeli tanker file (free to download, natch)- has been modified, so that the Archer SPG used by the Egyptians in 1956 can now be deployed!

Hi there!

Not sure if this is what you are after, but there is a list of French forces in Operation Torch at his link: https://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=97956

I hope this is useful?

I agree! We always assume acquisition is lost even if only for a part of a move. One of our chaps did suggest that in such brief loss of acquisition situations, one less acquisition die is needed to re-acquire. Though logical, we stuck to the original rules! It is a great game isn't it! PS: in case ...

The solo system is fairly interpretative, so rather depends on folk honestly making the guided choice in the best interests of the solo tank.

I hope you have fun using the rules!!!

Hi! I think the armour was slightly less than a Tiger 2, and more than a Tiger 1, so I would opt for an armour of 11, myself. The Rocket propelled is more of a problem! Allegedly, one shot which missed landed in a group of 5 Shermans - resulting in the disablement of all of them!!! It was loaded wit...
