Hey gang,

I was always suprised that each nation wasn’t given a medic unit, whether it be a vehicle or a infantry unit.

@dezrtfish:

Liger 200
Germany 1947
Tank
Speed 6 Soldiers 10/15/20
Defense 9/9 Vehicles 25/22/20

Special Abilities:
Advanced Camouflage – Cover rolls succeed at 6 or less.
Extended Range – Units long-range attack is 30 hexes.
Turbine Engine – Unit may make a second move after Combat is conducted.
105mm Quad Main Gun – Unit may make 4 attacks in each combat round.
Molten Metal Hyper Cannon – Unit may attack any number of units in a strait line.
Fear of God – All enemy units within 10 hexes of this Unit immediately surrender.

The Liger Tank was a project nearing completion at wars end. It was named for the mythical animal breed for it’s magical abilities. The Liger Tank was Hitler’s last secret weapon and destined to change the outcome of the war. The project was so secret however that the armored division ear-marked to take the tanks into battle was not allowed to know the location of the factory and therefore the tanks never made it into combat.

Looks like an interesting unit. :) Do you have a link I can use to learn more about this tank? I tried a Google search, and the first result was your post! :P

For example a standard British Rifle Platoon for 25 points gets you a Vickers MG, a Bren, and 4 SMLEs while a 25 point German Rifle Platoon is an MG 42, Light Mortar, and 4x Mauser. There’s no choice of using just all MG42s, etc. You may even have to use units you wouldn’t normally - like the Light Mortar in the German’s Rifle Platoon.

Since there are so many, and they change over time (eg 1943 and after one of those SMLEs would be replaced with a PIAT, or pre-1942 the MG 42 would be 2x Wehrmacht Veteran Infantrymen) I haven’t made a complete list yet. It’s on the ToDoList, which is always getting bigger :wink:

ROMMELS BRIGADES - New Variant Rules for use with AAM

Hi gang,

Welcome to the new forum for use with the Rommel’s Brigades Rules.

This forum is going to be the official Q&A area for questions on the new Advanced rules, as well as the new community site for people who want more information and updates on the game.

As most of you know AAM is a great system, but with many broken rules and abilities. In order to rectify the problems I have taken my own miniatures rules and converted them to make a better game, which can be used with the AAM units if you wish a more advanced and detailed system to play with.

Rommel’s Brigades is an open and more historical set of rules, with more common sense approach to using 1/144 scale WWII miniatures sets.

Over the coming days I will put up links to the new maps, rules, counters and brigade cards so that people can access and download them. The base website and the Mirror for it are below. Check back next week and you will find much that is new and interesting there.

If you have any questions or are wondering what its all about then feel free to post here and I will check in once or twice a day to answer them for you.

Cheers
