Not commercially available yet but I've been working on getting them out through blurb.com. I'll certainly be blogging on that when they're ready, so stay tuned...Dallashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816655312205569168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369363918074860264.post-4223185751512557982012-03-13T19:51:33.821-05:002012-03-13T19:51:33.821-05:00Great looking table and game!

Perhaps the Americans could have a choice of two shots at 5+ marksmanship, or one shot at 4+. Another thing that we seldom see in scenarios is the effect of artillery suppressive fire, something that would not necessarily kill the guys in the trenches, but prevent them from firing at advancing infantry.FrederickChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105186844570428983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369363918074860264.post-36337524289336030702012-03-01T16:48:41.169-06:002012-03-01T16:48:41.169-06:00Sounds like a good game.

The actual preferred military rational of attacking with at 3:1 odds in favour doesn't really hold up well in most wargames. As long as everybody had a good time, what does it matter?Lead Legionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12700198528204457272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369363918074860264.post-43672660259868602522012-03-01T15:48:25.555-06:002012-03-01T15:48:25.555-06:00Gotta love historical results :)

Playing as the Germans attacking an Allied beachhead in Italy facing that many riflemen is the closest I've come to crying in a wargame ;)<br /><br />It's far too easy to do! At least the Allies had fun... =pA-Historianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10380376544300664923noreply@blogger.com
