Hull mounted guns

Has anyone developed any house rules for tanks such as the M£ Lee/Grant and M11/39 that had the main gun in the hull and so have limited traverse? The M3 also has a smaller AT capable gun in the rotating turret.

Cheers

Skirmish Troops in formation

A few questions arose in a agme today about the status of skirmish troops who are in a formation: 1. Is their field of fire 180 degrees across their front or is it straight ahead? 2.

Re: Spanish Civil war Irregular rules

Thanks for that - I hadn't cottoned on to the fact that it was used instaed of the Force Moral table, Does this mean that Irregulars can't lose command dice? Also I understand that it is shock/kills applied in the current phase that impact on the Irregulars Fire and Effect table but do I understand ...

Spanish Civil war Irregular rules

Re: Scenarios

The Miniature Wargames scenario is about the French tank ace Pierre Billotte in 1940 with his Char Bi bis. There is also a brief reference to using the scene from Fury where 4 Shermans take on a Tiger.
