Next Set Units

@Autumn:

I assume so, but All of these cards are the official stats (none of them have been changed by players, all done by Wizards)?

100% official and sanctioned by WotC.

Still too expensive, but better than nothing!

japanese soldier says “big tank make our things go BOOM! but i will make big tank go BOOM!, wait won’t i also go B-!”
Bomb explodes! (Soldier acidently blows up base waiting for a sherman)

This is the kind of thing that would make me want to try eBay.

Well, I think my group is going to modify the stacking limits spesificly for the purpose of getting two Inf into a halftrack.  I think we will go with 3units per side one vehicle max.  It might get crowded, if it does I’ll make a map with bigger hexes.

That’s great info, thanks everyone!

Max and I played through a short game tonight. It was only when I played solo after he hit the hay, that I really grasped the rules. It’s actually a nice blend of skirmish and area style games. Positioning is oh so important. When I rush in I get slaughtered ‘cause I don’t realize how much damage those tiny pieces of plastic are capable of. I’m lovin’ it so far!

Yes, like most of the other hype (yeah I’m talking to you, Rhino) it’s turned out to be not all that bad. It’s a threat for sure, but counterable.

So I got the case of D Day releases and am generally quite pleased.  As I got to the last box I was hoping for a German or British Rare but got that French tank.  Oh well I had no doubles on other rares and am pleased.

What happened to the scale of the 88mm.  I know it was a scary piece but its not that big.  At the same time there were a couple of other vehicles that came across very small.

So we set up a new map.  I made a 3 foot by 8 foot hex map on a roll of brown craft paper.  For all of the various terrain types we cut different coloured paper hexes and laid them out.  It was a very cool map and I can change the trerrain as desired.  We played a European game of 500 point armies in a meeting engagement.  It was about four hours to play 7 turns.  With so much terrain it was important to build significant transport into the mix and run it up and back shuttling the infantry into the fight.

I lost three Sherman varients just to take out the veteran Tiger.

Great fun!
