Too Fat Lardies

Hi all, Just to let you know, a slightly updated version of AI Tanker is available on our website now, with slightly improved stats for the American tanks at this link http://herkybird.tynesidewargames.co.uk/misc.html Incidentally, I was asked about the Indo-Pakistan wars, and have a version of AI T...

Cheers Baron! Indeed he was! He felt hard done by when he had to trade his favourite tank (The Centurion) for a Sherman, but still managed to do well! I was -and still am a bit- very smug at getting 2 Sagger kills after lots of misses in previous games, I may just have found the right technique! Inc...

Today, we had 3 games of my AI variant of What a Tanker, and had a blast! The reports are on my blog at this link https://herkybird-richardbradley.blogspot.com/2019/04/day-of-bmp.html https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gpWB13dO0PA/XK5nrVfghcI/AAAAAAAAjlk/g1pG1CgIrcgXXXDwzmCgacTSa8IJtVubwCLcBGAs/s1600/PICT74...

Vorsprung durch Technik!

Indeed! Actually, in our second game Lawrence and I had T-34 43's and Phil a KV1, against a solo run trio of Panzer IV G's, and we lost again! (The KV of course surviving unscathed!
All in all a good day for the Panzerwaffe!

Today we tried my new Soviet tanks in What a Tanker. It was...different! The write up of our first game is on my blog at this link https://herkybird-richardbradley.blogspot.com/2019/03/russian-front-tanker.html https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XSpFa1EpRxg/XJ_WGBLKMeI/AAAAAAAAjc8/HwgSSDNjdmE-K70zna7q-dMYhP...

Of course, you could always use my points system, which, while not perfect, does give a more balanced game than the original points system in the rulebook! http://herkybird.tynesidewargames.co.uk/misc.html

Today, we did some more games of Arab-Israeli What a Tanker! I even got to shoot a Sagger missile! The write up is on my blog at this link https://herkybird-richardbradley.blogspot.com/2019/03/tanks-but-no-tanks.html I hope you enjoy the read! https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vZCRavro0kI/XIQxnA2MhAI/AAAAA...

I have finished the playtesting of AI tanker! If you want to try it, you can download the file from my club website http://herkybird.tynesidewargames.co.uk/misc.html

I hope you find it a fun addition to this excellent game!!!

Today, we tried out my Arab Israeli Tanker modifications, it worked pretty well, and only needed a slight modification to make the Arab tanks more fun to play with!!! The write up of 2 of our test games is on my blog at this link https://herkybird-richardbradley.blogspot.com/2019/02/golani-shermans....

I tend to turn the turret a bit in games to point at the target, and it doesn't seem to affect play at all, as the big thing in playing is acquiring a target, so you wont usually be shooting at a different target anytime soon!
