@Motdc:

With these new rules, you cannot start the game with your 88 or Bofors loaded on a transport, move to a drop location on turn 1, and dismount it.

How is that not broken!?

Agreed, this needs to be fixed.

@mateooo:

here is a rules questionm
I just played a few games with gamer, and these situations came up a few times.

When does the movement occur during the assault phase?

At one point does a unit need to be able to spot for a mortar?
Heres a situation. I have the initiative. If I move a soldier during the movement phase into LOS within 4 hexes of a unit (spotting for my mortar). During the assault phase (I go first with initiative) I attack that enemy unit with my mortar (spotting with my soldier). My soldier doesnt shoot, and instead moves during assault phase, out of LOS, and thus can not be retaliated against. Is this legal?

An inverse situation is this. I DONT have the initiative and go second. My opponent has already done his attacks. During my ASSAULT phase, I move my soldier into LOS and within 4 hexes of an enemy. Can I then use that spot for my mortar?
Basically, when and for how long does the spot have to occur?

thanks
Mateooo

1. You resolve move/attacks for one unit at a time.

2&3. I assume you are refreing to the mortar w/ the “Improved Indirect Fire” so any unit can spot? The special ability (having another unit within 4 hexes) must be satisfied when the Mortar’s assualt is resolved. It doesn’t matter if the soldier moved before or after that.

Is it just me or does it bother anybody else that the Expanded Rules cover is not stapled to the actual book? And on the back cover they included Greece as an ally but not Hungary as an Axis. Also the sign for Poland is not the same as that of the one on the Stat Card. Its the little things that drive me nuts!

This appears to involve the idea of making your own ( hence variant) of maps and ideas not part of the original concept of the game.

The trick to aircraft is you actually have to practice patience.

Don’t place them if you can’t get a good attack in with them. Take out your opponents AA units with fast attacking forces; units like motorcycles, cavalry, and even some armoured cars were well. Once you’ve elminated them you should have air superiority. The trick is to get them out as fast as you can, because until then you’re opponent has a point advantage on you.

Changing facing doesn’t take up movement “points.” When you get to your destination hex, you can face whichever hex side you wish. And instead of moving to another hex, you can change facing within the same hex.

However, if you are face-up disrupted, you cannot change facing, because you cannot move. And if defensive fire or a failed movement roll stops your movement, you must stop facing the hex you tried to enter.

For the exact rules wording, go to the Avalon Hill webpage and download the rules.
